Nd:YAG Laser Capillary Treatment
What is ND-YAG Laser?

ND-YAG laser is a laser system with a wavelength of 1064 nm. It is a wavelength that can be absorbed by hemoglobin, so it can be used successfully in capillary treatment. ND-YAG laser can also be used for epilation purposes. The risk of burns is low, especially when applied to dark-skinned people. Laser epilation with Nd:YAG is more painful than other laser systems. Blistering, redness and slight edema may occur after application. This may last several days. Applications with high doses may cause skin burns, especially in people with tanned skin. After these temporary burns, the skin becomes crusted and hypopigmentation (white spots on the skin) may develop after the crust falls off. The risk of such side effects is very low when administered with appropriate doses.

When high doses are applied, white or brown marks may remain in the procedure area.
