Laser Therapy Goes Even Beyond Skin

The laser is a very clever invention and was first produced in December 1958. Today it has very many different uses. According to Wikipedia, most types of lasers are an inherently pure source of light. They emit near-monochromatic light with a very well-defined range of wavelengths.

The word laser stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. There’s something that you never knew!

A laser has been used to measure with extreme accuracy the distance between the earth and the moon. Lasers can be used to harden the surface of certain materials. They are used in cooling some things. They are being experimented with in nuclear fusion. It is thought that, in the future, scientists may be able to induce rain and lightning storms by using a laser, which could eradicate drought in some areas of the world. Just round the corner from you, in your local Walmart, they probably use laser barcode scanners.

And lasers can also be used for skincare because they can remove very thin layers of skin. They can also remove hair, remove acne, and smooth your skin.

Tattoo Removal via Laser

For instance, if you have a tattoo that you no longer want, which is the case with many people, we can usually remove it with a laser. The whole point of having a tattoo is that it is either for decoration, or in many instances is in recognition of someone or something else. So, you might have the name of your partner, or a pet, or a charity that you support, in order to display your appreciation.

However, as time passes, things can change, and that means that you may no longer want to display that tattoo.
