The New Accolade Laser: Even Skin Tone in a Flash
Those brown spots across your forehead and cheeks. That tattoo you decided to
get in college that now sits on your arm as a painful reminder of past bad decisions.
Those freckles that were cute when you were 11, but now are simply a pest. All of
these cosmetic enemies to perfect skin can now be zapped away with the pulse of
the Accolade laser, the latest device from Cynosure, a leader in cosmetic laser
applications.
The Accolade is a high-powered, Q-switched Alexandrite laser that provides fast
treatment for removing benign epidermal and dermal pigmented lesions, such as freckles,
acquired dermal melanocytosis, nevus of ota and multicolored tattoos. The Accolade
successfully targets unwanted pigment in the skin, removing the discoloration, leaving
smooth tone and healthy-looking skin behind.
Safe, Effective Treatment
According to Cynosure, the Accolade laser treatment only takes about
20 minutes, though multiple treatment sessions may be needed to be fully satisfied
with your results. Downtime is minimal with Accolade laser treatment, though you
should consult with your physician to understand your post-care instructions and
when follow-up treatments should be scheduled. For tattoo removal, multiple treatment
sessions are usually necessary and will need to be spaced out over 6 to 8 weeks.
The Technology
Q-switched Alexandrite lasers are highly effective at removing tattoos, and have
been in use for some time. "The Q-switched alexandrite laser offers the best wavelength
currently available for efficient tattoo removal, safely removing the tattoo pigment
with a low likelihood of post-treatment pigmentary anomalies for most patients,"
says Dr. Ben Treen. In the Accolade a fiber delivered high-powered Q-switched pulse
is available through a variety of spot sizes. Small spot sizes can be used for high
fluence treatment of dermal pigmented lesions and tattoos, medium spot sizes for
efficient treatment of tattoos and epidermal pigmented lesions and large spot sizes
for low fluence treatments for larger areas of the skin with pigmentation.
