| Summary |
fractional laser can also induce minor trauma and wound healing process which might facilitate hair growth. Even though there is no optimal therapeutic parameter yet for the fractional laser for AA, the authors treated with laser therapy until 24 weeks. These protocol may affect the overall outcome for success, because of persistent response was observed after 6 months in many previously reports which were treated by other laser modalities to AA. Until now, we have no idea which cytokines are key inducers of these interesting phenomena. In the near future, we hope this puzzle will be solved by physicians and scientists who major in hair biology.

| Treatment of Periorbital Wrinkles with 1,550 nm Er:Glass Fractional Photothermolysis Laser |

|
| Summary |
Maximal clinical improvement of periorbital wrinkles was evident 1 month after the last treatment and the effect decreased somewhat 3 months after the last treatment. Statistically significant differences were not observed between the treatment results produced with the 1,550 nm Er:Glass laser. Histologic examination showed increased epidermal thickening and decreased solar elastosis at the 3 month time point after the final treatment. However, the degree of collagen deposition was not definite. Our study shows that fractional photothermolysis using 1,550 nm Er:Glass lasers is a safe and effective treatment to reduce periorbital wrinkles.

| Micro-fractional Laser Skin Rejuvenation : Enhanced Outcomes with Novel Multi-Modality and Multi-Wavelength Treatment Paradigms |
| Author : J. David Holcomb, MD |
|
Released Date : 2008 Origination : White Paper |
|
|
|
| Summary |
Achieving superior outcomes in laser skinrejuvenation begins with appropriate matching of Fitzpatrick skin type, indications and patient expectations with the wavelength(s) most likely to achieve the desired outcome. This goal is greatly facilitated by choosing devices that interact with tissue with precision and in a reproducible manner and by selecting the appropriate treatment parameters. The innovative features of the MOSAIC™ and eCO2™ laser systems described herein are among the reasons that Lutronic Corporation will continue to do well in the international aesthetic services marketplace.

| Clinical Efficacy of the MOSAIC Fractional Er:Glass Laser for the Treatment of Different Types of Scarring |
| Author : Samantha Hills PhD, Pervis K. Iqbal MbChB et al |
|
Released Date : 2008 Origination : White Paper |
|
|
|
| Summary |
The treatment of scars remains a challenging area of medicine, but treatment with a 1550nm fractional Er:Glass laser shows promising results in the treatment of these difficult lesions. Overall satisfaction levels are very high (at 77%) and the incidence of adverse effects is very low. The unique double-mode action of the MOSAIC system, which allows treatment in dynamic mode, and static (stamping) mode makes it particularly suitable for the treatment of scarring.
