The Erbium YAG 2940nm wavelength is highly absorbed by the water in your skin. Compared to older full-field CO2 lasers, this allows the iPixel to:
- Reduce Thermal Damage: It creates precise micro-channels with significantly less “peripheral” heat spread, lowering the risk of prolonged redness or pigment changes.
- Speed Up Recovery: Because it leaves 80% of the surrounding tissue intact, the skin’s natural healing response is much faster and safer.
