MLS Laser Therapy employs two specific wavelengths: 808 nm, which has anti-edemic and anti-inflammatory properties, and 905 nm, known for its analgesic (pain-relieving) effects.
Unlike earlier laser therapies, MLS Laser Therapy synchronizes continuous and pulsed laser emissions, allowing for precise control of laser energy delivery. This synchronization enhances therapeutic outcomes while reducing the risk of thermal damage.
The therapy aims to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, and minimize edema (swelling), promoting faster healing and improved tissue repair.
Yes, MLS Laser Therapy is an FDA-cleared, Class IV technology, ensuring its safety and efficacy for therapeutic use.
The laser light penetrates the skin and interacts with various molecules (chromophores) in the tissue, producing photochemical, photothermal, and photomechanical effects that facilitate the body’s natural healing processes.
