Bios Alex plus YAG The most innovative complete and versatile laser device on the market combining:

Alexandrite long pulse (HR II & III)Nd:YAG long pulse (HR V & VI, VL)Nd:YAG short pulse (SR)Alexandrite + Nd:YAG blended (HR III V)Features

Introduction to blended modeThe laser beam can be made by a mix of finely adjustable portions of these 2 wavelengths

Use of the same fiber and same handpiece for all the emission modes

More calibrated energy in a proportion that patients can better tolerate

Features

Introduction to blended modeSkin is different between people and body parts at different times of the year

2 laser sources including the blended mode and the short pulse Nd:YAG allow to expand the patients base

Solves the problems of having a range of patients with different skin of color

Features

Alexandrite long pulse 755nm corresponds to the highest melanin absorption in the spectrum

1064nm corresponds to a lower level of melanin absorption

At 1064nm better hemoglobin and water absorptionFeatures

Alexandrite long pulseIdeal for hair removal on light phototypes; potential side effects in darker skinned patients

One of the most powerful on the market: 27 J/cm2 on 14 mm spot size

Fast: up to 2 Hz at the maximum power of 45JFeatures

Alexandrite long pulseSafe with the new burst mode to deliver much more gently the energy to the tissues:- up to 5 pulses- total pulse width from 0,5 up to 120 ms

Skin has much more time to dissipate the heat coming from the interaction laser/epidermis melaninFeatures

Nd: YAG long pulse1.064nm corresponds to a lower melanin absorption, in comparison with Alexandrite, but guarantees the best penetration of the beam

Ideal for hair removal where there is a huge contrast between the color of the hairs and the color of the skin: dark phototypes (V & VI)

Very low superficial absorptionFeatures

Nd: YAG long pulse1.064nm is the best wavelength even for the treatment of vascular lesions: face teleangectasias blue and red leg veins spider veins spider naevi haemangiomaFeatures

Nd: YAG long pulseOne of the most powerful on the market: 27 J/cm2 on 14 mm spot size Fast: up to 2 Hz at the maximum power of 45J

1.064 nm long pulse allows to even treat warts and onychomycosisFeatures

Nd:YAG short pulse1.064nm emitting in microseconds is used for skin tightening (remodeling, skin texture) The laser beam causes micro lesions at 500 micron depth and stimulate new collagen production (thermal injury to the dermis that starts a wound-healing response)

The result is a non-ablative skin resurfacing reducing also the possible preexisting erythemaFeatures

Nd:YAG short pulseIdeal for pigmented lesions with spot sizes smaller than the size of the lesion itself

No chances to affect and damage the surrounding sane skin

Gradual lightening of hyperpigmentations, melasma and dark spotsFeatures

Nd:YAG short pulseTreatments are well tolerated by all the patients, with minimal discomfort

Fast: up to 7Hz

Safe: temporary side effects like small erythema have been observedFeatures

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)Alex & Nd:YAG emitted at the same time, from the same fiber and the same handpiece

Deliver more energy safely, efficiently and effectively, calibrating the thermal energy according to the skin type

Higher tolerability of the treatments due to the tailored treatmentsFeatures

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)The best solution for hair removal and blood vessels treatments

Effective on dark skin types and on fine and light hairs: less aggressive and no micronization of the hair bulbs

Lighter or thinner hairs on skin of color can be treated by blending a little Alexandrite to Nd:YAGFeatures

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)The parameters are finely adjustable for both the lasers: fluence and pulse width

It is possible to change the order of delivery and the percentage of energy in order to be less aggressive and effective at the same timeFeatures

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)For vascular lesions, the mix allows to target structures of different sizes at different depths

The 755 nm alexandrite laser converts oxy-hemoglobin to methemoglobin

There is an absorption increase of the 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelength by 300% to 500% for better and safer resultsFeatures

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)Methemoglobin is a form of the oxygen-carrying metalloprotein hemoglobin, in which the iron in the heme group is in the Fe3+ (ferric) state, not the Fe2+ (ferrous) of normal hemoglobin.

Methemoglobin cannot release bound oxygen, unlike oxyhemoglobin. It is a bluish chocolate-brown in color. In human blood a trace amount of methemoglobin is normally produced spontaneously. Features

Blended Mode (Alex + Nd:YAG)The optional integrated cooling system in the handpiece allows even much safer and more comfortable treatments

Less and faster sessions with better results for even more patients

It is possible to treat back in 30 minutes or legs in 30 to 45 minutesFeatures

Biocooling airThe most performing skin cooling system able to blow cold air up to -50C! (Normal working temperature around -20C)

There is also an adjustment for extra cooling, increasing the speed of delivery of cold air

Adapter to integrated cold air hose to laser handpiece so to really cool down the treatment areaFeatures
