The Nd:YAG (Neodymium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) laser is one of the most widely used lasers in aesthetic medicine. It operates at a wavelength of 1064nm (and sometimes at 532nm), making it versatile for a variety of treatments, including hair removal, skin rejuvenation, and pigmentation correction. The Nd:YAG laser is effective for deep penetration of the skin layers, which allows it to treat both superficial and deeper skin conditions.
This laser is known for its ability to treat darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV-VI) more safely compared to other lasers, making it a popular choice in aesthetic clinics and dermatology practices.
Hair removal: Effectively targets hair follicles for permanent hair reduction.
Skin rejuvenation: Stimulates collagen production, improving skin tone and texture.
Pigmentation treatment: Reduces sunspots, age spots, and pigmentation issues.
Vascular treatments: Targets and treats blood vessels for conditions like spider veins and broken capillaries.
Non-invasive and safe: Minimal discomfort with no downtime.
The Nd:YAG laser provides safe and effective hair removal for all skin types, particularly dark skin. It uses a longer wavelength (1064nm) to penetrate deep into the skin, targeting hair follicles without causing damage to the surrounding skin tissue.
Effective on: All hair types and skin colors
Session Time: 20–30 minutes
Results: Long-lasting hair reduction after 6–8 sessions
The Nd:YAG laser is commonly used for skin rejuvenation treatments, as it stimulates collagen and elastin production. This helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and improves skin texture, tone, and elasticity.
Targets: Fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, and overall skin texture.
Session Time: 30–45 minutes
Frequency: 4–6 sessions, spaced 2–3 weeks apart
Results: Younger, firmer skin with improved elasticity and texture.
The Nd:YAG laser is ideal for treating pigmentation issues like sunspots, age spots, and melasma. The laser’s wavelength effectively breaks down the pigment particles, which are then absorbed by the body.
Effective for: Sunspots, freckles, age spots, and melasma.
Session Time: 20–30 minutes
Frequency: 3–5 sessions, spaced 2–3 weeks apart
Results: Reduced appearance of pigmentation, even skin tone.
The Nd:YAG laser can treat vascular conditions such as spider veins, broken capillaries, and rosacea. By targeting the blood vessels, the laser helps to shrink and close the veins, leading to clearer skin.
Effective for: Spider veins, broken capillaries, and rosacea.
Session Time: 15–30 minutes
Frequency: 2–4 sessions
Results: Clearer, healthier skin.
