selective photothermolysis

0.01 sec.

Selective thermophotolysis Laser surgery The bleaching of certain skin lesions–eg, port-wine nevi and tattoos–lesions with preferential light absorption via a short-pulsed CO₂ laser that delivers ultrashort 'zaps' of energy. See Laser, Laser surgery, Port-wine nevus.

Hair Removal- Top Methods to Remove Unwanted Hair? by Semul Johnson / Women's issues/gender studies community The IPL system, as used in the Photo Facial procedure, conforms to the principle of selective photothermolysis. The Rosacea and Wrinkle Cure by Omlas / Health care industry community Based on the principles of selective photothermolysis, this principle predicts that selective thermal damage of a pigmented target structure will result when sufficient quantity of light at a given wavelength is absorbed by the target in a time equal to or less than the thermal relaxation time of the target.
