Zimmer MedizinSystems introduces its newest OptonPro high-power laser. The corporation’s German parent company is a pioneer in the field of high-energy laser therapy, having launched its first high-power laser as early as the 1990s. With over 20 years of experience and more than 10,000 laser systems sold worldwide, it is one of today’s leading device manufacturers. Each day, hospitals and practitioners across the world use and rely on the therapeutic effect of the company’s high-energy Opton lasers.
Highlights of the new OptonPro laser include up to 25 watts of output power for faster treatments combined with the most up-to-date technology.
The laser light is emitted from an ergonomically shaped laser applicator and is equipped with a manually adjustable switch. Double-clicking once emits a continuous laser light, with no further action needed from the user. This ensures maximum handling convenience for the user and eliminates the need for a foot pedal.
Skin temperature can be monitored during therapy with a sensor that is integrated right into the laser applicator. Now, the practitioner can be confident that undesirably high skin temperatures are avoided during therapy – no matter the skin type.
The simultaneous output of three wavelengths of laser light (810nm, 980nm, and 1064nm) opens up a broad field of therapeutic options for the user.
Therapy using three wavelengths enables the simultaneous stimulation of different target sites. Pain receptors at the surface, as well as deeper tissue structures, are stimulated simultaneously. The 1064-nm wavelength has the lowest light scattering and promotes radiation penetration into deep layers of tissue.
