Intended Use
585nm - 600nm: The TriStar Aesthetic Workstation laser is indicated for benign vascular and vascular dependent lesions removal. 1064mm: The TriStar laser is intended for the coagulation and hemostasis of benign vascular leasions such as, but not limited to, port wine stains, hemangiomas, warts, telangiectasia, rosacea, venus laske, leg veins, spider veins and poikiloderma of civatte and treatment of benign cutaneous lesions such as but not limited to, lentigos (age spots), solar lentigos (sun spots), café au lait macules, seborrheic keratoses, nevi, chloasma, verrucea, skin tags, keratoses, tattoos (significant reduction in the intensity of black and/or blue/black tattoos) and plaques. The laser is also indicated for the treatment of wrinkles such as, but not limited to, periocular and perioral wrinkles. Additionally, the laser is indicated for the removal of unwanted hair, for the stable long tern, or permanent, hair reduction through selective targeting of melanin in hair follicles, and for the treatment of psuedofolliculitis barbae (PFB). 1320 nm: The TriStar laser is indicated for use in gental surgery and dermatology for the incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation and hemostasis of soft tissue. It is also indicated for the treatment of periorbital and perioral wrinkles. It is also indicated for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles.
Device Story
TriStar Aesthetic Workstation combines pulsed dye laser and Nd:YAG laser in single unit; delivers energy via fiber optic cables; activated by foot switch. Operates at 585-600nm, 1064nm, and 1320nm wavelengths. Used in clinical settings by physicians for dermatological and surgical procedures. Laser energy targets melanin in hair follicles or vascular/cutaneous structures to achieve coagulation, hemostasis, or tissue ablation. Benefits include permanent hair reduction, lesion removal, and wrinkle treatment. System is 25 kg, 180x62x42 cm; requires 110 VAC power.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Combination pulsed dye and Nd:YAG laser system. Wavelengths: 585-600nm, 1064nm, 1320nm. Max energy: 60 J/cm2. Pulse width: 0-40 ms. Repetition rate: 1-3 Hz. Delivery via fiber optic cables. Electrical: 110 VAC, 15A, 50-60 Hz. Form factor: 180x62x42 cm, 25 kg.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring treatment of benign vascular/cutaneous lesions, tattoos, wrinkles, unwanted hair, and pseudofolliculitis barbae. Used for soft tissue incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and hemostasis in general surgery and dermatology.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
(1) A carbon dioxide laser for use in general surgery and in dermatology is a laser device intended to cut, destroy, or remove tissue by light energy emitted by carbon dioxide.(2) An argon laser for use in dermatology is a laser device intended to destroy or coagulate tissue by light energy emitted by argon.
