You have the CO2 laser operating it at a wavelength of 10,600 nanometers.

and the Erbium.YAG laser operating at 2,940 nanometers.

Now the CO2 lasers are the older technology, right? How does that one interact with the tissue?
S
7:05speaker_1HOST
The CO2 laser is what we call fractional microablative.
S
7:55speaker_1HOST
Right, right.
S
7:55speaker_1HOST
That's a very common misconception.
S
7:57speaker_0HOST
Yeah, but the Erbium.YAG operates in a completely different mode, specifically a non-ablative smooth mode, right? It's not punching microscopic holes in the tissue or vaporizing anything.
S

Exactly.
