Choosing the Best Therapy Laser for Your Podiatry Practice

Not all therapy lasers are created equal, and having a basic understanding of the differences in technology will help you make the right choice. Read our blog: Laser Therapy Basics for an overview of laser therapy. 

Why MLS Laser Therapy?

The innovative and patented Multiwave Locked System (MLS) Therapy Laser was developed in an effort to produce an efficient and simultaneous effect on pain, inflammation, and edema, exceeding the limits of traditional LLLT (low power) and concerns of HP (high power) laser therapy. MLS technology delivers therapeutic wavelengths, 808 nm and 905 nm, allowing a tissue penetration depth of 3-4 cm. An energetic synergy is created when delivering these wavelengths that produces greater anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects than either can produce on its own, while minimizing the risk of thermal damage. It is this unique combination and synchronization of continuous and pulsed emissions that characterizes MLS and distinguishes it from other Class IV lasers.
