FRACTIONAL LASER

Lutronic USA, Seoul, Korea, introduces its Mosaic fractional laser system that uses microfractional technology to treat scars, sun-damaged skin, and melasma. Mosaic uses Lutronic’s patented controlled chaos technology (CCT), which delivers multiple arrays of randomized microscopic laser beams to the skin. The CCT ensures that micronecrotic columns (MNCs) are randomly delivered and sufficiently spaced apart to achieve a more natural, uniform treatment and prevent unnecessary bulk thermal damages caused by conventional linear delivery methods. Mosaic features a user-friendly touch-screen LCD interface and robust “flash” software that allows the physician to customize treatments.
