Laser Technology

1064 nm Nd:YAG laser
The 1064 nm laser energy can be absorbed by hemoglobin in small blood vessels within a plaque, producing heat. Researchers are studying whether targeting these vessels can help improve psoriasis plaques.
Short-duration laser pulses
Aerolase Neo Elite uses 650-microsecond pulses to deliver 1064 nm laser energy. Treatment settings are selected according to the area being assessed and individual skin characteristics.
Varies between individuals
Some people may notice mild warmth or temporary discomfort. Your provider will explain what to expect before treatment.
No direct handpiece contact
The laser can be delivered without the handpiece touching the treatment area. Sensation and skin response vary between individuals.
The Treatment Explained
A closer look at how targeted laser energy may help improve selected plaques.
01 · Targeted Energy
Aerolase Neo Elite’s 650-microsecond laser technology delivers energy into the skin, where it can heat blood vessels within psoriatic plaques. Targeting these vessels is a proposed way to help improve the appearance of plaques, including their redness, thickness, and scaling. Results vary.
02 · Treatment Response
Some treated plaques may become less red, thick, or scaly over a course of treatment. Your provider can discuss your symptoms, including itching or discomfort, and how laser treatment may fit with your psoriasis care.
Illustrations are conceptual; individual treatment responses vary.
Treatment Suitability
Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated condition that requires individualized medical management. Not every patient or psoriasis type is suitable for laser treatment. During your consultation, your medical history, medications, skin condition, and previous treatment response will be reviewed. A qualified healthcare professional should establish the diagnosis and determine whether the proposed treatment is clinically appropriate.
Depending on your symptoms and disease severity, established medical treatments or assessment by a dermatologist may be recommended.

Areas to discuss with your provider

Preparation & Aftercare
Follow the instructions provided for your individual treatment plan, and contact the clinic if you have questions about a skin reaction.
Avoid aggressively scratching or scraping dry plaques prior to treatment to prevent the Koebner flare phenomenon.
Do not apply heavy petroleum ointments, coal tar preparations, thick mineral oils, or self-tanners immediately before your appointment.
Avoid direct unprotected sunbathing and tanning beds for 1 to 2 weeks prior to treatment. Let us know if the area is sunburned.
