How is Palomar pulsed light different from a laser?
A. 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 as a result, allows faster coverage of the skin and quicker treatments. Hair reduction, sunspot removal, or leg vein clearance, all require different treatments utilizing light of varying wavelength bands. Palomar Systems use specialized handpieces to filter light from different parts of the spectrum for designed specifically for each type of treatment.
