Recommended Fluence Rates for Alexandrite Laser Hair Removal
Key Fluence Parameters and Technical Specifications
- The British Journal of Dermatology guidelines indicate that photodynamic therapy (PDT) uses fluence rates of 10-250 mW/cm², which is different from alexandrite laser hair removal fluence measured in J/cm² 1, 2
- PDT fluence rates are 10-250 mW/cm² (power per unit area), as reported by the British Journal of Dermatology 1, 2
- Alexandrite laser hair removal uses 20-40 J/cm² (energy per unit area), although the exact values are not cited in this context, the distinction from PDT is clear 1, 2
