Intimate lightening with Q-Switched and Er:YAG LASER

Maria Cecília Siqueira Lombardi, dermatologist

São João da Boa Vista, SP - Brazil

This is a case report provided by the dermatologist Maria Cecília Siqueira Lombardi, from São João da Boa Vista, São Paulo, Brazil, using the ETHEREA-MX® platform with the

ACROMA-QS® and DualMode® handpieces.

Treatment
  • Darkening in the genital region and groin can occur for various reasons, including: accumulation of sweat, friction with clothing, hair removal with wax or razor, obesity, inflammation of the skin and repeated allergies, among other things.


  • Intimate lightening is a procedure that can be done with different methods, including medications, peeling and LASER. Among the LASER options, Q-Switched stands out. Using this with Er:YAG provides a better result.


  • The ACROMA-QS® handpiece, which is compatible with the ETHEREA-MX® and ZYE® platforms, works in nanoseconds (very fast pulses with high energy), leading to mechanical photodisruption of the pigment, allowing phagocytosis by the organism.


  • The DualMode® handpiece and its wavelength of 2940 nm (Er:YAG), which is also compatible with both platforms, allows more aggressive (in DualMode® – CO2 like) and less aggressive treatment (single pulse). In single mode, working at 400 mtz, it is possible to have pure ablation, with high density, low energy, and without a lot of penetration, for a faster recovery, helping the removal of pigment by extrusion during the healing process.

Before and after – 3 sessions
