Traditional fractional CO₂ treatment has evolved with DOT (Dermal Optical Thermolysis) Therapy. The science behind the success of DOT Therapy is the SmartXide DOT™ CO laser. CO₂ laser technology has been the gold standard in skin resurfacing for over fifteen years, but only DOT Therapy uses the optimal spot size for better energy distribution to treat a wider range of patients for both collagen remodeling and the appearance of aging.

DOT Therapy (Dermal Optical Thermolysis) is the leading micro-ablative approach to laser skin rejuvenation. It is ideal for treatment of:

» Wrinkles
» Skin laxity
» Acne Scars
» Fine lines

» Dyschromia
» Dermal lesions
» Photoaging


Perforations created with DOT Therapy


DOT Therapy creates thousands of microscopic perforations, which induce immediate skin tightening and stimulate new collagen growth, improving the skin's texture and tone to fight fine lines, deep wrinkles and even acne scars. The key to DOT Therapy is the SmartXide laser. It leaves the skin around each of the perforations intact, which allows the epidermis to heal from the edge of these tiny holes very rapidly, significantly improving overall complexion and reducing patient downtime.

DOT Therapy’s scientifically-chosen spot diameter is characterized by a “bowl-shaped” thermal footprint. The dimensions of the thermally affected area generated by this pulse result in producing the ideal volume of thermally affected tissue cells which will ultimately stimulate the process of neo-collagenesis.

Some CO₂ lasers leave deep, tiny, “column-shaped” thermal footprints that cause pain or bruising and are comprised in their ability to stimulate optimal neo-collagenesis. Other lasers utilize shallow “saucer-shaped” spots that leave behind wide epidermal wounds with significant overlapping of thermal zones. When coupled with the laser’s featured Infinite Delivery Options (IDO) feature, the clinician is equipped with the ultimate in system versatility and clinical control -- for safe, predictable outcomes and minimal downtime.

STANDARD ABLATIVE SKIN RESURFACING
In addition to standard DOT Therapy treatments, the SmartXide laser also delivers the versatility to adjust power, dwell time, DOT pattern, density and shape to customize treatment, especially for those patients with severe wrinkling or advanced photo-damage.

DERMATOLOGY AND PLASTIC SURGERY
Using the appropriate settings and alternative hand pieces, the SmartXide DOT CO₂ laser can also be used for incision, excision, and coagulation of various soft tissues for a range of applications in dermatology, plastic surgery and general surgery, including the treatment of skin tags and warts, and performing blepharoplasty.
