Short pulses. Localized pigment interaction.
Short laser pulses are absorbed by selected pigment particles. Rapid energy deposition produces thermal and mechanical effects that can fragment tattoo ink; the body's immune processes gradually handle the fragments. Wavelength and pulse duration help determine which pigment is targeted.

The system features a 1–5 mm zoom lens that provides precise spot-size adjustment for highly accurate treatment across a range of clinical indications. Its integrated 532 nm KTP lens enables seamless transitioning between 1064 nm and 532 nm wavelengths, enhancing versatility and workflow efficiency. Additionally, the 7 mm beam expander tip supports treatment of larger areas, allowing providers to address broader indications quickly and effectively.
Our advanced IGBT-based medical power supply delivers exceptional efficiency and performance. Compared to conventional systems, it achieves significantly higher power conversion efficiency with reduced energy loss and minimal heat generation, ensuring stable and reliable operation during extended clinical use.
Operating at frequencies of several hundred kilohertz, the system provides ultra-fast response times measured in tens of nanoseconds. This allows precise energy delivery and superior pulse control for consistent treatment outcomes.
The highly integrated IGBT module design results in a more compact footprint with reduced weight, improving overall system reliability while supporting high power demands.

Nanosecond lasers remain widely valued because they deliver strong, reliable photothermal and photoacoustic energy that effectively breaks down pigment in both cosmetic and medical applications. Their pulse duration—measured in billionths of a second—creates sufficient peak power to fragment tattoo ink and treat many epidermal and dermal pigmented lesions, while maintaining a balance of controlled heat that can enhance therapeutic impact. This makes nanosecond platforms suitable for patients seeking dependable pigment clearance without the need for more advanced or specialized technology.
They also offer a high degree of versatility and consistency, making them a trusted choice for clinics handling a broad range of tattoo colors, especially darker inks that respond well to 1064 nm nanosecond wavelengths. Because the design of these systems has been refined over many years, providers appreciate their predictable performance, stable output, and straightforward operating parameters. This reliability makes training easier and reduces variability in outcomes, particularly for high-volume practices.
Nanosecond lasers are additionally attractive due to their cost-effectiveness and accessibility. They typically carry a lower investment cost than picosecond systems while still delivering strong clinical results for tattoos and pigment. This combination of affordability, proven technology, and broad application range enables many practices to offer effective pigmentation services without the financial or operational demands of newer platforms.

Comprehensive Education & Training
To help your team get the most out of the technology, each device includes access to in-depth education and training resources. From operational guidance to best-practice techniques, these programs equip users with the knowledge and confidence needed to deliver safe, effective, and consistent treatments.
Small but Powerful
The Q-switched YAG laser's specific wavelength penetrates the skin and, according to the theory of selective photothermolysis, breaks the pigmented cells into tiny pieces that the body can naturally absorb. The process effectively removes freckles and other pigmentation spots. The 1064nm setting shatters and removes black and blue pigments, while the 532nm setting targets red, pink, purple, and brown pigments in tattoos or other pigmented areas - all without harming the surrounding healthy skin.
Inside our Nd:YAG technology
Engineered for Optical Performance
For North American DevicesThe premium crystal and quartz-cavity specifications described below apply to our North American device configurations.
Premium Czochralski-Grown Nd Crystal
Our North American Nd laser systems use high-optical-quality Nd single-crystal rods grown using the Czochralski process in an induction-heated iridium crucible.
Crystal quality & beam performance
Carefully controlled crystal growth helps achieve high Nd³⁺ dopant uniformity, excellent optical homogeneity, low internal stress and reduced wavefront distortion. These characteristics are important for maintaining consistent laser propagation through the gain medium and supporting a clean, stable beam with uniform energy distribution across the treatment spot.
We also specify our own optical coating requirements to support long-term durability and consistent optical performance in our North American Nd laser systems.
Rather than selecting laser rods based solely on cost, we specify higher-grade crystals for their optical quality, consistency and ability to withstand the high peak-energy demands of Q-switched and picosecond Nd systems.
Precision Quartz Laser Cavity
Our North American Nd platforms utilize a precision quartz flow-tube and laser-cavity architecture selected for its high optical transmission, thermal stability and resistance to thermal shock.
Cooling, pumping & output stability
The quartz assembly helps isolate and cool the Nd crystal while allowing efficient transmission of pump energy from the flashlamp. Combined with optimized cavity geometry and cooling, this helps maintain stable operating temperatures, consistent pumping of the crystal and repeatable laser output during high-energy operation.
The result is a laser head engineered around beam quality, energy stability and long-term optical performance, rather than simply minimizing component cost.
