Astria Medical Aesthetics specializes in rosacea, redness, and pigmentation treatments, offering customized Yellow Laser solutions for sensitive skin. With professionals and advanced techniques, Astria ensures safe, effective results without irritation.

Advanced Yellow Laser Technology

At Astria Medical Aesthetics, we utilize advanced Yellow Laser systems operating at a precise 585nm wavelength. This specific wavelength offers superior absorption by hemoglobin, leading to more effective targeting of vascular lesions and pigmentation compared to lasers using 570nm or 520nm wavelengths.

Benefits of 585 nm Wavelength:

Precise Targeting

Absorbed by hemoglobin in blood vessels, the laser energy causes coagulation and shrinking of blood vessels, effectively reducing redness and rosacea.

Deeper Penetration

Nearly doubles the depth of penetration compared to 532 nm, making it more effective for treating deeper vascular and pigmentation issues.

Gentle on Skin

With 50% less melanin absorption, the 585 nm wavelength significantly reduces the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, making it safe for sensitive and darker skin types.

Minimal Downtime

The process promotes clearer, brighter skin with minimal damage to surrounding tissue.


Our Approach:

By harnessing the benefits of the 585 nm Yellow Laser, Astria Medical Aesthetics provides:

  • Precise targeting of redness and pigmentation
  • Minimal discomfort and downtime
