Neue Entwicklungen in der Lasertherapie

Abstract: Based on the theory of stimulated emission of radiation that was proposed by Albert Einstein in 1916, the first lasers were developed in the 1960s. The first clinical use of laser technology in a German university took place in 1978 in the Department of Dermatology of the Ludwig-Maximilian-University in Munich under the guidance of the former director, Prof. Dr. med. Dr. h.c. mult. Otto Braun-Falco. In the following years, laser technology developed rapidly. Today laser technology is a widely used interdiscipl… Show more

“…Lasers are widely used for surgical/thermal (High Intensity Laser Therapy, HILT) or other therapeutic (Low Level Laser Therapy, LLLT) purposes [ 1 , 2 ]. The therapeutic usefulness of LLLT resides in the trophic, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects [ 3 , 4 , 5 ] that result from the transformation of light energy into biochemical energy [ 6 , 7 ].…”

“…Novel laser resurfacing techniques offer significant advantages over conventional ablative procedures such as CO2 and Erbium YAG (yttrium-aluminum-garnet) laser procedures in terms of complication rates and shorter recovery times [ 25 ]. In addition, new devices combine ablative and fractional procedures and can achieve remarkable results [ 26 ], for example in the treatment of facial scars [ 27 ].…”
