The mode of action of carbon dioxide laser in the removal of age spots
The light of the carbon dioxide laser is absorbed in water that is found in every human tissue. During the absorption heat evolves, the cells boil and explode. In the case of age spots we use the carbon dioxide laser with low energy for the evaporation of the epidermis where the age spots locates.
