What is phagocytosis? - answer✔Physiological process by which the body absorbs and
eliminates the destroyed target
What is selective photothermolysis? - answer✔Laser light of a specific target containing the
adequate chromophore withe damaging the surrounding tissue.
What is thermal relaxation time? - answer✔Time it takes for the tissue to cool down and
dissipate to surrounding skin
What are the 4 basic laser parameters? - answer✔Wavelength, pulse duration, spot size, and
fluence
What is the pulse duration? - answer✔Duration of each laser pulse
What is the pulse duration of a 755nm laser? - answer✔3ms
What is the pulse duration of a 1064nm laser? - answer✔Varies from 3ms to 20ms
