ProlapLase^®

The ProlapLase^® protocol includes three steps:

Step 1: Circular (360°) irradiation of the whole vaginal canal.
Step 2: Angular irradiation of the prolapsed side of the vaginal wall.
Step 3: Irradiation of the vestibule region and prolapsed vaginal wall.
Usually, patients will require more than one treatment session (up to four).

Unique advantages of ProlapLase^® for your patients

With ProlapLase^® the overall impact and burden on the patient’s organism is minimal, as opposed to more invasive classical surgical procedures. No special pre-op preparation or post-op precautions are necessary. Patients can immediately return to their normal everyday activities.

Additional advantages of ProlapLase^® are that the procedure is incisionless and virtually painless, with no cutting, bleeding or sutures.

Getting started with ProlapLase^®

After clinical approval, training in ProlapLase^® will be provided through the Laser and Health Academy* (www.laserandhealth.com) as a stand-alone training workshop under the guidance of experts in medical laser technology. The extensive workshop, where participants engage in live demonstrations and gain an in-depth understanding of laser physics and laser-tissue interaction, will provide the needed insights into the fundamentals of the ProlapLase^® treatment and other procedures that can be performed with Fotona’s laser systems.

ProlapLase^® and other clinical gynecology treatments can be performed with the following Fotona laser systems:

• The TimeWalker^® IntimaLaser^™ is a unique new laser platform dedicated to gynecological treatments. With two complementary laser wavelengths (Er:YAG and Nd:YAG) exceptional versatility is achieved – from gentle ablative to non-ablative thermal treatments. Safe, tested and proven solutions are available for a wide range of gynecological applications, from the simple removal of lesions to bloodless high-precision cutting.

• The FotonaSmooth SP multi-application laser system from Fotona provides a single, uniquely capable gynecology solution that combines the power of the industry's highest performance Er:YAG, Nd:YAG and QCW* Nd:YAG lasers, ideal for treating all gynecological applications plus a wide range of other treatments in aesthetics, dermatology, and surgery.

• The FotonaSmooth XS Er:YAG laser offers the power and precision to perform an impressive range of non-contact, non-invasive gynecological procedures with greater patient comfort, reduced downtime and quicker healing. In addition to gynecology treatments, the FotonaSmooth XS is also a powerful skin rejuvenation solution, with functions ranging from superficial to deep peels, from non-ablative to fully ablative and from full-field to fractional resurfacing.

Superior Performance

The FotonaSmooth XS and SP systems are both equipped with a high performance VSP Er:YAG laser that ablates tissue efficiently and can be accurately tuned to varying “cold” ablation and non-ablative thermal ratios. Full customizability allows you to precisely attain the clinical outcomes your patients require.

The complementary Nd:YAG laser on FotonaSmooth SP lasers penetrates deeply to create thermal effects without damaging the skin surface. Compared to conventional Nd:YAG technologies, Fotona’s proprietary VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology creates virtually instantaneous temperature increases that are limited to the targeted structures only. No unnecessary energy is deposited into the tissue.

Handpieces & Accessories

Fotona's specially designed, innovative handpiece technology allows safe, precisely controlled and effective delivery of laser pulses to the treatment area. More information about handpieces and other accessories is available on the above product pages.
