Many lasers/IPLs may display the fluence on the screen (instead of merely just the energy). This is slightly better than showing just the energy, but it may also be inaccurate. Even these systems need to be calibrated routinely, to ensure the correct numbers.
You wouldn’t drive a car without accurately knowing the speed. Why would you use a laser or IPL without knowing what it is putting into your patient/client’s skin?
We cover this topic and more in much greater detail in our new laser/IPL book – coming out soon.
Thanks for reading, Mike and PA.
