Overview 

What is ND-YAG Laser?

ND-YAG laser is a laser system with a wavelength of 1064 nm. It is a wavelength that can be absorbed by hemoglobin, so it can be used successfully in capillary treatment. ND-YAG laser can also be used for hair removal, especially when applied to dark-skinned people, the risk of burns is low. Laser epilation with Nd:YAG is more painful than other laser systems. Swelling, redness and mild edema may occur after the application. This may take several days. Applications made with high doses, especially in people with tanned skin, may cause burns on the skin. After these temporary burns, crusting occurs on the skin and hypopigmentation (white spots on the skin) may develop after the crust falls off. The risk of such side effects is very low when administered at appropriate doses.
