Mathematical modeling of laser lipolysis
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Liposuction continues to be one of the most popular procedures performed in cosmetic surgery. As the public's demand for body contouring continues, laser lipolysis has been proposed to improve results, minimize risk, optimize patient comfort, and reduce the recovery period. Mathematical modeling of laser lipolysis could provide a better understanding of the laser lipol...
متن کاملMathematical modeling of endovenous laser treatment (ELT)
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Endovenous laser treatment (ELT) has been recently proposed as an alternative in the treatment of reflux of the Great Saphenous Vein (GSV) and Small Saphenous Vein (SSV). Successful ELT depends on the selection of optimal parameters required to achieve an optimal vein damage while avoiding side effects. Mathematical modeling of ELT could provide a better understanding ...
متن کاملRaman Laser Modeling: Mathematical and Numerical Analysis
In this paper we study a discrete Raman laser amplification model given as a LotkaVolterra system. We show that in an ideal situation, the equations can be written as a Poisson system with boundary conditions using a global change of coordinates. We address the questions of existence and uniqueness of a solution. We construct numerical schemes for the approximation of the solution that have goo...
متن کاملComparative study of wavelengths for laser lipolysis.
OBJECTIVE This aim of this study was to evaluate the role of different wavelengths (920 nm, 980 nm, 1064 nm, 1320 nm, and 1440 nm) in laser lipolysis. BACKGROUND Laser lipolysis is fast becoming a recognized technique for fat reduction. It has been demonstrated that (i) fat liquefaction is induced through a temperature elevation of the adipocyte cells, and (ii) fat volume reduction depends on...
متن کاملQCW Pulsed Nd:YAG 1064 nm Laser Lipolysis
The aim of this study was to evaluate the rapidly growing use of Nd:YAG 1064 nm lasers for laser lipolysis, and to compare this wavelength with other wavelengths used for laser lipolysis in terms of safety and efficacy. The wavelength dependence of laser lipolysis was simulated using a Monte Carlo computer simulation. The results show that the Nd:YAG 1064 nm wavelength is the optimal wavelength...
