Just Laser It!....and all things Cosmetic
The world of lasers for the skin can be confusing and overwhelming with new treatments popping up daily. What works? What doesn't? And a little clarity, please, on what these "energy based devices" can and cannot do. This podcast helps both patients and practitioners navigate through the different energy based devices (Laser, IPL and RF) as well as decoding the numerous injectables such as Botox, Fillers and PDO threads, to help gain a better understanding and to evaluate if these types of procedures are right for you. Yes, so true...we all age, but how we age is our choice and hopefully you will walk away with a greater insight into the wild, wonderful world of lasers. This show is hosted by Dr. Raminder "Minni" Saluja (board certified ophthalmologist and fellowship trained in Cosmetic Dermatology) and Kane Rogers. No quizzes at the end so sit back and enjoy and DM us for questions you would love to see answered in upcoming shows. Instagram: SalujalaserMD

Episode 19
Photobiomodulation (LED or LLLT) utilizes light to trigger biological changes. It primarily involves red (633 nm) and near infrared light (830 nm) for wound healing and tissue repair by promoting cellular growth and regeneration which accelerates the healing process.
It also helps reduce inflammation and pain in muscular injuries.
Neuroprotective effects are also being studied to enhance cognitive effects and help protect from neural inflammation seen in a variety of disease states of the brain.
PBM is non-invasive, non-thermal and now at home devices are available.
Hope you enjoy!
