| The Palomar LuxG
handpieces emit pulses of light into the skin. The light is absorbed
by the pigment in sunspots and the blood in visible vessels, and
converted to heat. The heat dissolves the cells that create the
pigment and shrinks the vessels. |

| Frequently Asked Questions |
| |
|
How does Palomar
pulsed light work? |
|
Palomar Systems use
specialized handpieces which filter light from different parts of
the spectrum. Each band of the spectrum has a wavelength that is
ideal for different treatments, such as sunspot removal and vessel
clearance. |
| |
|
How is
Palomar pulsed light different from a laser? |
|
Pulsed light systems
and lasers are very similar, but Palomar Pulsed Light Systems use a
much larger treatment window than most lasers. This spreads light
over a wider area of skin and allows faster coverage of the skin and
quicker treatments as a result. |
| |
|
What body areas can
I get treated? |
| Any area, except
directly around the eyes. The face, neck, chest, arms, back and legs
can all be treated. |
| |
|
What are Palomar
RejuveLux treatments like? |
|
Your treatment
provider will move the handpiece over your skin, pulsing it all the
while. Each pulse will send a beam of light through your skin. A
flashing light, an audible tone and a mild sensation on the skin
will tell you then the handpiece is being pulsed. |
| |
|
What should I
expect after treatment? |
- Immediately
after treatment, you can expect a mild sunburn-like sensation,
possible accompanied by some minor swelling. This usually lasts
2-24 hours and can be soothed with cold gel or ice packs.
- Sunspots/Sun
Damage: The sunspots will darken after treatment and be naturally
shed from the skin within 1-2 weeks.
- Rosacea: Skin
tone will be more normal, with less pronounced redness within a
week after treatment.
- Spider Veins:
Vessels may disappear after treatment or they may appear darker
and then fully or partially fade within 10-14 days.
- Typically,
several treatments will be necessary to achieve complete clearance
of sunspots, rosacea and vessels.
