•The high-powered 755 nm Alexandrite wavelength is highly absorbed by melanin. It has proven long-term results for pigmented lesion removal and hair reduction, permanently reducing hair by an average of 79% after just three treatments.1
•The 1064 nm Nd:YAG is the safest wavelength for permanent hair reduction on darker skin types and tanned skin.2,3,4 It’s also the wavelength of choice for treating facial and leg veins, the most common form of vascular lesions.

Several colors of laser light (measured as wavelengths of laser energy) are used for tattoo removal, from visible light to near-infrared radiation. Different lasers are better for different tattoo colors. Consequently, multi-color tattoo removal almost always requires the use of two or more laser wavelengths. Tattoo removal lasers are usually identified by the lasing medium used to create the wavelength (measured in nanometers (nm)):
Q-switched Frequency-doubled Nd:Yag: 532 nm. This laser creates a green light which is highly absorbed by red and orange targets. Useful primarily for red and orange tattoo pigments, this wavelength is also highly absorbed by melanin (the chemical which gives skin color or tan) which makes the laser wavelength effective for age spot or sun spot removal.
Q-switched Nd:YAG: 1064 nm. This laser creates a near-infrared light (invisible to humans) which is poorly absorbed by melanin, making this the only laser suitable for darker skin. This laser wavelength is also absorbed by all dark tattoo pigments and is the safest wavelength to use on the tissue due to the low melanin absorption and low hemoglobin absorption. This is the wavelength of choice for tattoo removal in darker skin types and for black ink
The Q-Clear™ Laser System is a revolution in size, simplicity, and price. Providing the performance expected only from much more costly, but less versatile, large-box systems. The Best Laser for treatments of patients with fungal nails.
The Q-Clear™ laser system is cleared by the US FDA for multiple indications, including “temporary increase of clear nail in patients with Onychomycosis”
