What is the advantage of Elite Pulse over other pulse modes?
Elite Pulse delivers short pulses with a duration of 10 millionths of a second and an amplitude of 6-7 watts. These energy levels are high enough to cause coagulation of surface tissue and have bacteriocidal properties. Spectralase Elite automatically adjusts the pulse interval depending on the wattage setting. The higher the wattage, the longer the interval, allowing time for the tissue cooling. The self adjusting pulse will deliver an average power that insures patient comfort and prevents tissue charring. Our research and clinical experience has led us to conclude this combination of variable pulse width and pulse interval is optimal for laser performance and tissue health.
