For a physician offering cosmetic procedures- patient safety, clinical efficacy and speed are constant concerns. After extensive research to offer her clients only the best and latest in non-invasive aesthetic laser technology, Dr. Levada found that the Laserscope, Gemini Laser System, does exactly that.
The Gemini laser is a dual-wavelength system using 1064nm (Nd: YAG ) and the 532nm (KTP) light energy resulting in higher power and faster treatment potential. This enhances the ability to perform a wide variety of treatments including the removal of leg and facial veins, acne, redness, age spots, unwanted hair, pseudo-folliculitis and wrinkles. The Gemini utilizes a intuitive computer touch-screen surface allowing for adjustable spot sizes-for large or small areas, variable speed, energy adjustment for shallow or deep imperfections, continuous parallel contact cooling for patient safety and comfort, and ergonomic hand pieces designed specifically to reduce operator fatigue and improve treatment visibility.
