The Palomar StarLux 300 (predecessor to the StarLux 500) is a truly versatile IPL laser that stands the test of time. What are some of the key highlights of this highly popular system?
- With the selection of handpieces available, the StarLux 300 delivers aesthetic treatments that are high in demand.
- The StarLux 300 offers patients Advanced Contact Cooling, minimizing discomfort and negative impact to a patient’s skin during procedures. Keeps skin temperature lower during the treatment process with a chilled handpiece tip.
- The system comes with AccuSpectrum which also increases patient comfort by filtering leaving no unnecessary exposure of the skin.
- Photon Recycling reduces energy loss during treatments which increases overall effectiveness.
- Wide Smooth Pulse directs more power and light energy directly into the skin. Not only is this safe and effective, but it delivers the best possible results. The Wide Smooth Pulse technology works by preventing a rapid increase in skin temperature. Other lasers use rapid pulses which have the opposite effect.
