Maximize Your Non-Ablative Fractional Treatments!

Unique non-ablative skin resurfacing needs require specific amounts of surface coverage and depth of treatment.  Palomar's fractional resurfacing devices offer options that let you customize the treatment for the best possible result. The XD Microlens™, designed for  the Palomar 1440 nm and 1540 nm fractional laser handpieces, is a new addition to the family of optics for non-ablative skin resurfacing.

Using compression and a unique lens design, the XD (extra deep) Lens allows for maximum non-ablative fractional treatment depth.

Benefits of the XD Microlens:

This illustration of skin compression depicts the actions of a single micropoint when pressed upon the skin.  As the dermis is compressed, the point is brought closer to deeper targets and the interstitial water is displaced from the dermal-epidermal (D/E) junction into the surrounding spaces.

With less water to absorb, scattering of the laser light is reduced, enabling increased absorption of the light by deeper targets.  Additionally, better contact improves heat transfer from the skin to the cooled sapphire compression points, decreasing epidermal temperature and risk of injury.

	"The XD Optic has given me the added depth of penetration on difficult-to-treat conditions, such as scars, to really make a difference.  My patients are delighted at the results, and I am, too. -Taro Kono, MD
	"XD stands for extra deep, and our studies show this advanced compression tip technology is living up to its name, as it can deliver subablative dermal damage with minimal side effects and less pain." -Christine Dierickx, MD
	"I have had excellent results with the Lux1540 for acne scars and surgical scars. I have a patient who told me that I had changed her life by improving her acne scars with only one session. I have seen amazing results." -David Friedman, MD, Jerusalem, Israel
	"It's wonderful to be able to treat some cosmetic indications that traditionally I've had to treat with ablative technology. The Lux1540 is the best alternative for rejuvenation of the neck and chest and for treatment of acne scars" -E. Victor Ross, MD
