CLASS IV LASER & COLD LASER
The class IV Laser therapy it's more intense laser therapy and this higher power becomes important when treating injuries to deeper tissues such as ligaments, muscles, tendons, and cartilage.
WHAT IS COLD LASER & CLASS IV LASER?

Cold laser therapy is low-intensity laser therapy that stimulates healing while using low levels of light.
The technique is called “cold” laser therapy because the low levels of light aren’t enough to heat your body’s tissue.
The level of light is low when compared to other forms of laser therapy, such as those used to destroy tumors and coagulate tissue.
Surgical and aesthetic lasers heat the tissue being treated. True to its name, cold laser therapy does not.
The class IV Laser therapy it's more intense laser therapy and this higher power becomes important when treating injuries to deeper tissues such as ligaments, muscles, tendons, and cartilage.
HOW DOES COLD LASER & CLASS IV LASER WORK?
During this procedure, different wavelengths and outputs of low-level light are applied directly to a targeted area. The body tissue then absorbs the light.
The red and near-infrared light cause a reaction, and the damaged cells respond with a physiological reaction that promotes regeneration.
Superficial tissue is commonly treated with wavelengths between 600 and 700 nanometers (nm). For deeper penetration, wavelengths between 780 and 950 nm are used.
Although you’ll feel the laser device touching your skin, the procedure is painless and non invasive. There will be no sound and you’ll feel no vibration or heat (class IV laser might gets hot). Each treatment typically takes only a few minutes.

WHAT IS COLD LASER & CLASS IV LASER IS USED FOR?

The main uses for cold laser therapy are tissue repair and relief from pain and inflammation.
-
pain relief
-
cartilage
It’s also used to help reduce swelling and promotes healing of the joints and soft tissue.
In medicine, they are often employed for pain management, wound healing, and tissue repair, utilizing photobiomodulation to stimulate cellular activity
IS COLD LASER & CLASS IV LASER EFFECTIVE?
Yes, Class IV laser therapy is generally considered effective for a variety of conditions, particularly for pain management and tissue healing. It utilizes high-powered lasers to stimulate cellular activity, promoting pain relief, reducing inflammation, and accelerating tissue repair. While effective, it's important to note that the specific outcomes and optimal parameters can vary depending on the condition being treated and individual patient factors.
