 Wavelength determines absorption target
 Absorption spectra help determine ideal wavelengths to heat desired
targets
 Wavelength affects light scattering (spread)
 Shorter wavelengths experience more scattering
 Scatter and absorption limit depth of heating

Key Parameters for Successful LHR
1. Wavelength
Nd:YAG
• 1064 nm
• Skin Types I-VI
• Safest wavelength for darker
skin and tanned patients
• Effective on dark, coarse hair
Pulsed Light (IPLs)
• 590 to 1200 nm
• Skin Types I-V; best for light
skin and dark hair
• Shallower penetration –
deeper, thicker hairs not
treated as effectively
• Less precise – can lead to
heating of skin pigment
Alexandrite
• 755 nm
• Skin Types I-V; ‘gold standard’ for
I-IV
• More effective for finer, lighter hair
• Most globally requested, trusted
and utilized wavelength
Diode Laser
• 800, 810 nm
• Skin Types I-III; less for IV, V
• Peak Power/Brightness is a
fraction of Nd:YAG/Alex lasers –
can be less effective on finer,
lighter hair
• Blind to treatment area

Key Parameters for Successful LHR
2. Spot Size
• Treat target and reduce risk to deeper structures by selecting
appropriate spot size (particularly for 1064 nm)
• Smaller spot size = less penetration, more scatter
– Targets more superficial structures (superficial, fine hair follicles)
• Larger spot size = deeper penetration, less scatter
– Targets deeper structures (hair)
Key Parameters for Successful LHR
3. Pulse Duration (PD)
• Measured in milliseconds (ms), based on target size and skin type
• Pulse duration controls efficacy
– Speed of heat escape is proportional to target size
– Shorter pulses are effective because energy is delivered faster than it can
escape
– Longer pulses protect the epidermis because heat can escape preventing heat
rise (Nd:YAG)
• Pulse must be shorter than the thermal relaxation time of the hair
– Coarse hair = 25-45 ms
– Fine hair = 3-10 ms
Key Parameters for Successful LHR
4. Fluence
• Measured in Joules/cm2 (J/cm2), amount of energy applied in a given area
• Total energy delivered is determined by both fluence and spot size
• Adjustments should be made based on clinical endpoints and epidermal
response

Key Parameters for Successful LHR
5. Cooling
• Laser targets melanin in target hair follicles – cooling protects the
epidermis
• Cooling reduces the temperature rise in the epidermis and protects it
from damage, permitting higher fluences to be delivered
• Cooling acts as a local anesthetic for improved comfort
• Types of cooling
– Contact Cooling
– Cryogen (refrigerant) Cooling
– Refrigerated Air Cooling
• Contact cooling is superior as Cryogen cooling does not provide the
same level of variable protection and safety

Sapphire Contact Cooling
The Importance of Cooling
• Melanin is the target in hair follicles, but is
also a target in the epidermis
– Cooling reduces the temperature rise in the epidermis and protects it
from damage, permitting higher fluences to be delivered to the hair
follicles
• Cooling acts as a local anesthetic for improved
comfort
• Cryogen (refrigerant) cooling does not provide
this level of variable protection and safety
Sapphire Contact Cooling
The Physicians Choice for Comfort & Safety
• “Sapphire contact cooling is superior for laser hair removal –
index matching and compression enable target structures to be
heated more efficiently while pre-, parallel-, and post-cooling spares
the epidermis.”
Source: Lasers Surg Med 2000; 26(2): 130-144
Evaluation of Cooling Methods for Laser Dermatology
H.H. Zenzie, MS, G.B. Altshuler, PhD,
M.Z. Smirnov, PhD, and R.R. Anderson, MD
• With a sapphire window temperature variable from 4oC to 20oC, physician
have controllable cooling to maximize safety, comfort and results
Sapphire Contact Cooling
Improved Efficacy with Refractive Index Matching
• When the refractive index is “matched”, there is little or no bending (refraction)
when the light enters the transmission medium
• Refractive index values of sapphire and epidermal tissue are optimally
matched – as a result, the coupling of laser energy into tissue is more
efficient than through air
Sapphire refractive index is optimally
matched to skin and results in more
efficient coupling of laser energy to
follicular target structures
Refractive index mismatch
between air and skin results in
less efficient coupling of laser
energy to target structures
excel HR Other Technology
Sapphire Contact Cooling
Index Matching & Optical Damping with Sapphire Lens
• Minimizing the light bending (refraction) ensures that more of the
light reaches the target tissue
• Matching the light path with the refractive index allows the light to
back scatter and escape without causing heat build up at the skin’s
surface – this is referred to as optical damping
• Sapphire contact cooling creates near ideal conditions for optical
damping – a thin liquid layer can be used to provide optical coupling
and enhance the optical damping effect
Index matching between
sapphire and skin allows
back scattered light to
escape, further protecting the
epidermis from heat build-up
Refractive index mismatch
causes internally reflected
laser light to accumulate
under the skin and contribute
to epidermal heating
Sapphire Contact Cooling
Index Matching & Optical Coupling
Sapphire, n = 1.7
Air , n = 1.0
Antireflective coating w/
99.5% transmission
Gel, n = 1.4
Skin, n = 1.4
Sapphire, gel and skin
refractive indexes are
closely matched and step
down in index for direct
optical coupling of laser
photons into skin
WINDOW
excel HR
Enhanced Efficacy With Compression
• Skin compression collapses blood vessels, stretches the
skin and often decreases its thickness – thus shortening the
distance to follicular target structures for more efficient
heating
Sapphire Contact Cooling
Patient Safety Benefits
• Contact cooling guarantees that laser treated areas are cooled and
protected
– Effective as long as the sapphire is in contact with the skin.
• Cryogen-spray cooling can result in burns if laser and cryogen are
misaligned
– Only cools until the cryogen evaporates
– Incorrect positioning can result in burns, hyperpigmentation
“Now it’s over 2 months after and I
have scars everywhere where I was
treated!”

Other Operational Benefits
• Environmental
– No contribution to global warming like cryogen spray
• Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a) has a high global warming potential
• Candela DCD inventors @ Beckman Institute urging alternative1,2
• Operating Environment
– Doesn’t expose operator and patient to harmful CFCs3 like cryogen spray
• Operating Efficiency
– Doesn’t require 15 minute “warming time” like cryogen
– No pre-treatment alignment of “spray pattern” required
• System operating costs
– No impact to operating costs – disposable cryogen canisters impact operating
costs significantly ($5-45K/year)

Pre-Treatment Guidelines
• Clean the skin by removing all make-up and/or topical
anesthetic
• Ensure that the treatment area is clean shaven
• Instruct patients to not wax, pluck or tweeze hair
between treatments
• Topical anesthetic is optional and must be removed
before treatment
– CAUTION: Toxicity may result from overuse. Consult
the product labeling for any anesthetic used
• Ensure that ALL people in the treatment room are
wearing safety eyewear
excel HR
Treatment Precautions
• Be extra cautious when treating delicate or highly sensitive areas
(knuckles, genitalia, ears, upper lip, etc.)
– Provide extra cooling with handpiece and/or frozen gel pack. Thinner
skin is more easily damaged
– Insert damp cotton ball inside ear canal when treating the ear
– Pull skin away from testes to treat
– When treating near the mouth, a moist gauze can be placed between
the lips and teeth to protect teeth from discomfort
• Use extreme caution when treating near the eye
– Always treat outside the orbital rim of the eye aiming the beam away
from the orbit.
– Always use patient eye protection
– Point the treatment window away from the eye and apply to the skin
outside of the orbital rim
excel HR
Patient Comfort
• Cool Compress
– May be applied to increase patient comfort and increase
epidermal protection
• Topical anesthetic can be applied
– For highly sensitive areas
– For patients with low pain tolerance
– Must be removed before treating
– CAUTION: Toxicity may result with overuse
– Consult the manufacturer’s labeling
excel HR
Post Treatment Guidelines
For best results, ensure patient adheres to post-care
instructions:
– Avoid sun exposure and use a broad spectrum (UVA/UVB) sunscreen
– Redness and peri-follicular edema (looks like a rash/bug bites) are
common and resolve with time
– Bruising and swelling are less common but may occur and will resolve
with time
– If a blister develops, treat as a wound
– Hair may take up to 2 weeks to fall out
– Avoid heat – hot tubs, saunas, etc. for 1-2 days
– Avoid skin irritants (examples below) for a few days post-treatment
Products containing tretinoin, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, glycolic/salicylic acids,
astringents, etc.
– Do not wax or pluck between treatments
excel HR
Treatment Intervals
• Treatment Interval recommendations are a general
guideline only and are a compilation of intervals
used by successful operators
• Facial hair: 6-8 week intervals between
treatments
• Body hair: 8-10 week intervals between
treatments
• Back or Leg hair: 10-12 week intervals between
treatments
• To maximize hair response, it is often best to space
the treatments further apart

My Laser Journey
Cutera Excel HR
2014 - Cutera Excel HR was introduced
– I did not need another laser.
– However, due its good technical parameters and
low consumable costs, I saw its advantage and
bought it.
How could I use both Cynosure and Excel HR?
Could Cynosure patients adopt to Excel HR?
• Could we convince Cynosure patients to
continue their sessions with Excel HR?
– To take advantage of the low consumable cost
• I requested them to try Excel HR
• If they were not pleased with the results and
comfort, they would go back to Cynosure.
• Patients were more pleased with Excel HR.
• Once again, I had made a good choice.
Summary
My great experiences with Excel HR:
– Alexandrite
– NdYag
My great experiences with excel HR
Alexandrite
• With the continuous (pre, parallel, post)
cooling ;
– There is less pain, less risk of side effects hence
safer and certainly effective laser hair removal.
• No breaks needed during treatment because
of less pain
– Treatment takes a shorter time.
My great experiences with excel HR
Alexandrite
With quick start time, real time calibration and quick
switching time, there is no wasting of time.
My great experiences with excel HR
Alexandrite
The matching of the laser path and refractive index of
the skin, gel and contact window reduce scattering of
laser light.
– Thus, the light only reaches the targeted location.

Due to truPulse technology,
– Stable energy can be supplied throughout the pulse
duration, in the remaining spot area.
My great experiences with excel HR
ND Yag
Flexibility in pulse duration.
– Ability to set up the pulse duration in milliseconds
(e.g. 0.3ms) to warm up the area under the skin
during rejuvenation
– For thick hairs or veins, you can set up the
required energy with high pulse duration (e.g. 40
ms)
My great experiences with excel HR
ND Yag
With contact cooling and parallel cooling;
• Vascular treatments and laser hair removal procedures are
less painful.
• Before, only pre and post cooling was available.
With large spot size up to 18mm;
• Laser hair removal can be done faster

  • 9. Key Parameters for Successful LHR 2. Spot Size • Treat target and reduce risk to deeper structures by selecting appropriate spot size (particularly for 1064 nm) • Smaller spot size = less penetration, more scatter – Targets more superficial structures (superficial, fine hair follicles) • Larger spot size = deeper penetration, less scatter – Targets deeper structures (hair)
  • 10. Key Parameters for Successful LHR 3. Pulse Duration (PD) • Measured in milliseconds (ms), based on target size and skin type • Pulse duration controls efficacy – Speed of heat escape is proportional to target size – Shorter pulses are effective because energy is delivered faster than it can escape – Longer pulses protect the epidermis because heat can escape preventing heat rise (Nd:YAG) • Pulse must be shorter than the thermal relaxation time of the hair – Coarse hair = 25-45 ms – Fine hair = 3-10 ms
  • 11. Key Parameters for Successful LHR 4. Fluence • Measured in Joules/cm2 (J/cm2), amount of energy applied in a given area • Total energy delivered is determined by both fluence and spot size • Adjustments should be made based on clinical endpoints and epidermal response Decrease Large Spot Sizes Darker Skin Types Increase Small Spot Sizes Lighter Skin Types Fluence
  • 12. Key Parameters for Successful LHR 5. Cooling • Laser targets melanin in target hair follicles – cooling protects the epidermis • Cooling reduces the temperature rise in the epidermis and protects it from damage, permitting higher fluences to be delivered • Cooling acts as a local anesthetic for improved comfort • Types of cooling – Contact Cooling – Cryogen (refrigerant) Cooling – Refrigerated Air Cooling • Contact cooling is superior as Cryogen cooling does not provide the same level of variable protection and safety

  • 22. Sapphire Contact Cooling The Importance of Cooling • Melanin is the target in hair follicles, but is also a target in the epidermis – Cooling reduces the temperature rise in the epidermis and protects it from damage, permitting higher fluences to be delivered to the hair follicles • Cooling acts as a local anesthetic for improved comfort • Cryogen (refrigerant) cooling does not provide this level of variable protection and safety
  • 23. Sapphire Contact Cooling The Physicians Choice for Comfort & Safety • “Sapphire contact cooling is superior for laser hair removal – index matching and compression enable target structures to be heated more efficiently while pre-, parallel-, and post-cooling spares the epidermis.” Source: Lasers Surg Med 2000; 26(2): 130-144 Evaluation of Cooling Methods for Laser Dermatology H.H. Zenzie, MS, G.B. Altshuler, PhD, M.Z. Smirnov, PhD, and R.R. Anderson, MD • With a sapphire window temperature variable from 4oC to 20oC, physician have controllable cooling to maximize safety, comfort and results
  • 24. Sapphire Contact Cooling Improved Efficacy with Refractive Index Matching • When the refractive index is “matched”, there is little or no bending (refraction) when the light enters the transmission medium • Refractive index values of sapphire and epidermal tissue are optimally matched – as a result, the coupling of laser energy into tissue is more efficient than through air Sapphire refractive index is optimally matched to skin and results in more efficient coupling of laser energy to follicular target structures Refractive index mismatch between air and skin results in less efficient coupling of laser energy to target structures excel HR Other Technology
  • 25. Sapphire Contact Cooling Index Matching & Optical Damping with Sapphire Lens • Minimizing the light bending (refraction) ensures that more of the light reaches the target tissue • Matching the light path with the refractive index allows the light to back scatter and escape without causing heat build up at the skin’s surface – this is referred to as optical damping • Sapphire contact cooling creates near ideal conditions for optical damping – a thin liquid layer can be used to provide optical coupling and enhance the optical damping effect Index matching between sapphire and skin allows back scattered light to escape, further protecting the epidermis from heat build-up Refractive index mismatch causes internally reflected laser light to accumulate under the skin and contribute to epidermal heating
  • 26. Sapphire Contact Cooling Index Matching & Optical Coupling Sapphire, n = 1.7 Air , n = 1.0 Antireflective coating w/ 99.5% transmission Gel, n = 1.4 Skin, n = 1.4 Sapphire, gel and skin refractive indexes are closely matched and step down in index for direct optical coupling of laser photons into skin WINDOW
  • 27. excel HR Enhanced Efficacy With Compression • Skin compression collapses blood vessels, stretches the skin and often decreases its thickness – thus shortening the distance to follicular target structures for more efficient heating
  • 28. Sapphire Contact Cooling Patient Safety Benefits • Contact cooling guarantees that laser treated areas are cooled and protected – Effective as long as the sapphire is in contact with the skin. • Cryogen-spray cooling can result in burns if laser and cryogen are misaligned – Only cools until the cryogen evaporates – Incorrect positioning can result in burns, hyperpigmentation “Now it’s over 2 months after and I have scars everywhere where I was treated!” LASER TREATED AREA LASER TREATED BUT NOT COOLED AREA CRYOGEN SPRAY AREA
  • 29. Sapphire Contact Cooling Other Operational Benefits • Environmental – No contribution to global warming like cryogen spray • Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a) has a high global warming potential • Candela DCD inventors @ Beckman Institute urging alternative1,2 • Operating Environment – Doesn’t expose operator and patient to harmful CFCs3 like cryogen spray • Operating Efficiency – Doesn’t require 15 minute “warming time” like cryogen – No pre-treatment alignment of “spray pattern” required • System operating costs – No impact to operating costs – disposable cryogen canisters impact operating costs significantly ($5-45K/year) 1.

  1. Let’s take a look at what devices are used to understand where 755 fits in. Laser hair removal has been around for decades and has undergone several evolutions in wavelengths. Today, the four most popular approaches to remove unwanted hair are: Discuss methods – for IPL and 810 diode – Say that they work, have their place, but not for industrial hair removal for all skin types. Make the comment that 810 diodes are only for hair removal and offer no other revenue streams. (And if it comes up, although we position ours for high volume, industrial hair removal, the fact is…it offers additional revenue streams and it can be used on all skin types) I think we all know that 1064 is a great wavelength for all skin types, but many practitioners world wide prefer 755 alexandrite. The reason is that it is less painful than 1064 and it works. The ideal combination is 755 with 1064 – they can use 755 most of the time and combine 1064 when needed. 755’s popularity is so great that often practitioner’s will not even consider a device without it. And that has been a big problem for us – we offer great solutions for hair removal, but we haven’t offered Alex, so many doors were shut to us. We wouldn’t even get invited to the party. (thoughts to consider here- establishing a relationship early on is important, being the first device a new practice purchases is important – the next laser they buy will be from you.) We could lose the potential to have a life long customer!

  3. It’s hair removal! The Millennium Research group predicts that by 2017 the number of hair removal procedures will double from 1.2M in 2012 to 2.5M! The demand for hair removal means the demand for safe, effective, reliable and comfortable laser hair removal devices will also grow. This market is not going away. Just look at what our competitors keep launching – hair removal products! Palomar, the vectus. Lumenis’s most popular product is the LightSheer. Syneron/Candela continue to invest in marketing and R&D for their Candela G series.
