What Is Laser Facial Contouring?

Safe and Precise Facial Contouring Surgery
Using Water droplet Laser

A surgical technique more advanced than an electrical, mechanical saw,
it uses the ultrasonic energy of a water droplet laser and trims the bone
more safely and precisely.

The laser machine for this technique has been approved by U.S. FDA
as the only kind in the world that makes laser-to-bone contact.

Water droplet Laser Enables Detailed Pre-Surgery Design and Safe
Facial Contouring Surgery without Tissue Damage from Vibration and Heat.

The Principle Behind the Water droplet Laser

Water droplet Laser with
Water and Laser Light Combined

Water molecules instantaneously expand absorbing
the laser’s wavelength. The energy expansion
accelerates water droplets to supersonic speed and
produces a massive amount of molecular kinetic
energy.

The kinetic energy of water droplets
produced triggers ultra-minute explosions and
resects the bone with the energy of ultrasonic
waves (shock waves).

Laser Facial Contouring VS Previous Mechanical Facial Contouring


	Laser Facial Contouring	Previous Facial Contouring Using Electric Saw
Principle of How It Works	Cuts bones using ultrasonic energy from a combination of laser and water droplets	Mechanically cuts bones using an electric saw
Cutting	Produces soft bone-cutting line without bone fracture, and enables easy curve-making and more detailed cutting	Produces rough bone-cutting surface and severe damage from frictional heal and vibration, with a risk of too much or little cutting
Bleeding/Tissue Damage	Low risk of blood vessels and tissue damage, with hemorrhage control made possible by laser	Risk of blood vessel and tissue damage from frictional heat and vibration of electric saw
Pain	Minor nerve damage and reduced pain with neurotransmitter activity lowered by laser	More severe pain compared to laser
Swelling	Low bleeding and swelling with almost no damage to lymph glands	More severe than using laser
Recovery	Fast wound healing and fast return to daily life	Relatively slow recovery due to higher level of bleeding and swelling thanusing laser
Inflammation	Minimized with cells activated by laser	Higher level of infection and inflammation than using laser
