Advances in laser and IPL technology have brought about a rapid development in the use of lasers in dermatology in recent years. Besides being used to treat a constantly growing range of skin disorders, lasers have also become established in cosmetic dermatology. As a result, the attention of both physicians and patients is increasingly focusing on associated problems such as the optimal visual detection of the target structures of the skin, the formation of undesired cold or heat induced erythemas but also maintaining a clean contact between the skin and laser head.
Geistlich Pharma AG - a pioneer in the field of regenerative medicine - has succeeded with the 'HydroPad' HydroGel Pad in developing a structure which in a simple application provides a clean and patient friendly solution to the complex problems involved in laser use, such as cooling of the patient's skin, erythema formation and visualization of skin structures.
