Lux1540 microbeams on the surface of the skin, magnified
Diagram 1. The Palomar Lux1540 Fractional Laser delivers laser light in an array of high precision micro beams. These microbeams create narrow deep columns of tissue coagulation that penetrate well below the epidermis and into the dermis, while sparring the tissue surrounding the columns from damage.

The coagulated tissue within the columns initiates a healing process that accelerates the formation of new, healthy tissue. Coagulated cellular debris is expelled as the skin is resurfaced.

Diagram showing precise areas of micro thermal injury that are delivered into the skin. The surface layer of the skin remains intact and the surrounding healthy tissue allows the treated zones to recover and repair.
Diagram 2. Throughout the process, the integrity of the stratum corneum is maintained which protects the tissue from infection as it heals. The result: faster dermal remodelling and skin resurfacing.

Diagram 3. Palomar Lux1540 The Palomar Lux1540 delivers its microbeams in one short pulse at a time with active contact cooling.

The advanced laser cooling technology ensures that the surface of the skin is kept protected and safe with the surface layer of the skin remaining completely intact.
The treatment does not require topical anaesthesia or the application of a dye prior to treatment.

The Lux1540 offers greater energy per microbeam and greater depth of penetration than any other competing device. This stimulates quick healing within the surrounding deep tissue for the most effective dermal corrections and long term deep remodelling obtainable.
