1064 wavelengths allow the removal of black and dark blue tattoo ink effectively, especially with a stable and more efficient laser top-hat beam profile. 532 wavelengths allow red tattoo removal with minimal blistering compared to conventional nd: YAG lasers.

Curas laser and its even hat shape beam profile are effective to treat most pigmented lesions from superficial pigmented lesions such as freckles, lentigo, and other vascular lesions like age spots with a low incidence of PIH. the treatment also provides the optimal performance for the treatment of tattoo ink removal, melasma, vascular lesions, skin rejuvenation, non-ablative resurfacing and pigmented lesions. This is because of the stable top-hat laser energy profile, which is precise. Therefore lower energies are used to treat these lesions compared to traditional nd:YAG lasers. The unique features of this high-quality beam allow the laser to be used safely on all skin types.

Curas is currently one of the rare advanced Q switch Nd YAG laser system that can offer various modes to address Melasma and pigmented dermal lesions. Melasma mode (at 100 ns pulse duration) has a stronger photothermal effect which is more efficient to clear larger, deeper pigmented lesions. (Photothermal effect has been shown in clinical review papers to have a better pigment clearance effect than photoacoustic effects in pico laser, Melasma mode can help to stimulate collagen in the deep dermis layer and also add the additional photothermal resolution of melasma. These modes do not exist in previous conventional Q switch machines but only in Curas

The carbon cream is applied onto the superficial skin and skin pores and the Curas laser vaporizes the carbon, it has a skin peeling, skin rejuvenation and pore tightening effect.

The strength of the CURAS advanced laser in various laser modes that allow the delivery of laser pulses at different pulse duration, therefore targeting different depths of the skin. For example, genesis mode targets deep dermis while melasma mode and q switch mode target more superficial skin. The even and adequate delivery of well-distributed laser pulses will allow a more thorough skin rejuvenation and pore reduction for patients.

Solar related lentigines or lentigo respond very well to 532 wavelengths of advanced q switched laser. Most such superficial pigments should completely clear in 2-3 sessions. Because of the high-quality beam and more efficient use of laser energy pulses, these lesions can be cleared at significantly lower energies compared to conventional q switch lasers and even pico lasers. What that means is a significantly lower risk of PIH, which is a common risk for pico lasers.

Conventional q switch lasers and pico lasers have limited success in treating PIH. That is photoacoustic power of these laser systems has not been particularly successful in reaching and dispersing PIH, which are larger and deeper pigment lesion. In addition, excessive photoacoustic power can itself provoke more PIH to occur. Therefore, at longer pulse durations, both the genesis mode and melasma mode, which greater photothermal effective but still within the TRT (thermal relaxation time) of the dermis, can cause more PIH clearance.
