pulsed light Hugues Cartier, A Le Pillouer-Prost, and Saib Norlazizi TECHNICAL ASPECTS Principle of Operation: Light, Laser, and Intense Pulsed Light For practical purposes, we can use a color coding system to identify optical filters to be used for specific indications (Figure 37.4): Electrical Energy and Optical Spectrum The main difference between a laser and an intense pulsed light (IPL) is physics: the first one emits a coherent, monochromatic light (one wavelength measured in nanometers [nm]), whereas the second emits a polychromatic, noncoherent light (a spectral band, e.g., from 550 to 950 nm) The wavelength of a laser can be drawn as one color, whereas the spectral band of IPL is composed of all the colors of the rainbow (Figure 37.1) Flashlamps or IPLs are discharge lamps of high intensity filled with a noble gas, mostly xenon, most rarely krypton These light sources produce an optical radiation when an electric current is passed through the ionized xenon gas at high pressure IPLs are very efficient and convert over 70% of electrical energy into light, compared to the best laser efficiency of 17% produced by CO2 lasers The intense radiation of these lamps has been utilized in various medical and nonmedical applications: optical pumping of laser systems (Nd:YAG, dye lasers, Q-switched lasers, frequency-doubled lasers 532 nm, etc.), simulation of solar radiation, absorption measurement or fluorescence, photocopy units, stroboscopes, and IPLs themselves The glass or quartz of the flashlamp is made up of cerium or titanium dioxide The two triggering electrodes are embedded in the flashlamp structure and polarized (anode +, cathode −) Optoelectronic detection systems are used to determine the emission spectrum in a qualitative and quantitative manner Apart from the use of optical filters, spectral emission varies according to the electrical energy inducing the intense light emission Low electrical energies generate a high predominance of infrared (IR) light peaks within the spectral emission Higher electrical energies induce a progressive shift towards light peaks located within the shorter wavelengths of the spectral emission All flashlamps modify their light emission according to their progressive decay; therefore,regular device service maintenance is recommended IPL systems need to limit their emissions to interact with selective skin targets Specific cutoff optical filters can be used to reduce spectral bands suitable for selective indications (Figure 37.2) The short-wavelength filters are generally used for vascular targets (Figure 37.3) such as thin and light-colored hairs, light-pigmented lesions, etc Higherwavelength filters are used for epilation particularly in darker skin types • • • • • Blue—acne Green—vascular and pigmented (short-wavelength filter will be more selective on lighter and superficial targets such as sunspots or very thin veins, but this filter has the highest risk for burning and is therefore harder to handle) Yellow—vascular and pigmented (may be a little less efficient but safer, especially for beginners) Orange—vascular or pigmented (photorejuvenation and epilation of light skin types and scars) Orange red—epilation and scars Laser beams are collimated and can concentrate a high intensity of specific photons in relatively small areas The same light–tissue interaction can be applied to larger areas when scanners are used IPL systems are able to irradiate relatively large anatomical areas (up to cm2) with a noncollimated multiwavelength spectral band able to interfere with multiple targets at the same time The light source needs to be positioned as close as possible to the skin surface to optimize clinical effects Clinical effects depend on modulation of IPL emission Proper pulse durations, pulse repetitions, and interpulse delays need to be selected to generate specific photothermal effects IPL timings range from 0.5 to 100 ms, and the tissue effects are only of two orders: photothermal or photochemical with low irradiance The tissue interactions are based on the principle of selective photothermolysis, which does not require a monochromatic irradiation but only an incident beam that can be selectively absorbed by the target chromophore To juggle effectively with the pulse durations, the pulse train, and the pulse delays, we must have some basis and understand well the notion of thermal relaxation time (TRT) of biological targets and surrounding tissue to use the principle of photothermolysis As a refresher, TRT corresponds to the time required for heat to conduct away from a directly heated tissue region It represents the time taken for heated tissue to lose 50% of its maximum heat through diffusion The parameter settings are therefore the same as for lasers: the adaptation of the pulse widths and pulse delays to the respective TRT of the target chromophores and surrounding tissue for a selective action and safeguard of surrounding tissue The aim of the pulse train is to improve the selectivity; therefore, instead of emitting a single wide flash of light, we progressively increase, in steps, the temperature of the target tissue and at the same time protect the adjacent tissue that has a different TRT and cools faster between pulses This is even more important for darker skin type (Figure 37.5) Copyright Material – Provided by Taylor &

cm2) and six different filters New Technologies 700 Spectral repsonse— 495 pulsar filter • Even if the mode of operation of IPL technology is univocal, the systems commercialized for medical applications are very diverse, with multiple, more or less, differences making them totally incomparable The most common technical variations can be found in the lamp arc length, gas pressure, electrode quality and shape, glass material (Figure 37.6), thickness of the quartz, power, sealed or nonsealed joints, filters, and cooling system (water or air cooled), water cooling does indicate that far-IR wavelengths are blocked at the lamp end and the tissue effect could be totally different between the two systems of this category 600 Wavelength (nm) Spectra • • • • • voltages and high electric bank capacitors are used The end result will consist in a more stable spectral band emission during each IPL pulse Some manufacturers prefer keeping these specifications and not stabilize the electrical pulsing Optical filters The quality of filters is important; dichroic filters tend to deteriorate with use and are prone to develop hot spots (where the optical coating comes off), thus exposing partial segments of the exposed isolated spots irregularly distributed on the target area to the full spectrum of light of the lamp and therefore to superficial burns (Figure 37.7) Plain glass filters can break or become cloudy, thus the need to check the filter visually or test it using photosensitive paper (Figure 37.8) The spectral band used for each treatment is chosen spanning from UV to IR, which is lamp emission, except “fluorescent” filters The use of fluorescent polymer filters helps convert short and more deleterious wavelengths into more useful light We can therefore reduce the voltage applied to the lamp while keeping an intense emission in the desired area of the spectrum and prolonging the lamp life and efficiency (30%–50% of the unusable shorter wavelengths can be “reconverted” by the use of these filters) Calibration Most of the new IPLs are equipped with a system of calibration (Figure 37.9) This is particularly important as we have, for a long time, blamed these lamps for their lack of reproducibility in time, but some end users (practitioners) prefer investing in a calibration system outside the IPL, which is more reliable and covers the totality of the crystal The handpieces From large to small Pulse delivery: single pulse, pulse train, pulse delays Cooling systems Before the advent of efficient cooling systems, it was practical to use thick layers of cold gel The thickness of the layer of gel and the force applied by the user with the applicator on the treatment area could result in significant variations in the light energy transmitted to the area treated The emergence of sapphire-based cooling system or special quartz (BK7) (Figure 37.7), via cryospray or pulsed cold air, is one of the major improvements to Copyright

very different in their specifications (make) and their results are not comparable Depilation Field Figure 37.6 Deteriorate dichroic filter IPLs (+++ improvement ratio: efficiency/safety) Of course, the filter quality, the spectral range, the energy conversion and the pulse duration, and pulse train/delay are to be considered all around Some machines privilege the diversity of filters for best absorption to the target area, while others concentrate on the setting of pulse number and duration Some IPLs both, but this means the end user has to be specially trained on the particular machine they are going to use, to ensure the total understanding of the IPL and ensure the repeatability of the treatments from one patient to another Some machines use a skin analyzer to set the treatment parameters automatically for the application Recognized and authorized by the FDA since 1997, epilation by IPL has largely proved itself clinically For the parameters, after analyzing the hair type (thickness, color), skin type, and area of treatment, we use different energy densities, ranging from to 20 J/cm2 for some IPLs, 30 to 45 J/cm2 for others, 15 to 40 ms for pulse durations depending on the thickness of the hair to a single pulse or by a train of pulses (3–7 pulses with delays of 1.5–50 ms), etc All these possible settings permit a high precision and adaptation possibilities for each patient and for the repeat treatments for the patient to the miniaturization and lightening of the hair The first filter of choice depends on the skin type and color of the hair; we select shorter-wavelength filters for light hair on light skin (between 500 and 550 nm) and higher-wavelength filters (550–755 nm) and/or fractional pulses for darker skin types In fact, lighter hair contains essentially pheomelanin, which has an absorption curve shifted toward the shorter wavelengths compared to eumelanin in darker hair/skin type When using shorter-wavelength filters on lighter skin–type patients, of course, we can expect some very good results from blondes and mousy blondes or those who were blonde/mousy blonde when they were children In general, we not treat skin types higher than IV, but some clinical publications have shown the possibility to treat higher skin types V and dark Asians by using filters above 645 nm and to fractionize the pulses with long pulse delays Finally, while Copyright Material – Provided by Taylor & Francis Review Copy – Not for Redistribution MEDpress-Inform Publishers, 1-3-4/H, build.1, Kochnovsky proezd, RC "Aerobus", 125319

glass filter the actual mode of operation was leaning toward high-energy densities to stop the regrowth of simply miniaturized hair, recent publications question again the possibility of using energy densities [1] To optimize the results on lighter hairs, we can use IPLs that are combined with radio frequency (RF); the publication results are optimistic at the moment but rare and with very low levels of proofs The French Laser Group User’s opinion seems quite homogenous: interest for light, thin hairs, and small areas as the handpieces are small but no results on thick white hairs It appears to be a good tool in complement to a laser or a depilation IPL of reference For the results, the average session for long-lasting (durable) depilation varies between and depending on the skin type, hair color, treatment area, age, sex, and, of course, hormonal status Maximum efficiency is achieved mainly in the first three treatments (Figure 37.11) After one treatment, all hair types and skin types all mixed, literature numbers indicate an average reduction of hair of 52% at 12 weeks for IPLs, maintained around 40%–75% at or 12 months depending on the equipment The clinical cases or short tests reported after multiple sessions Figure 37.9 Calibration system on the back of an IPL device of photoepilation by IPL give a very interesting and lasting result of 75%–80% efficiency, after five sessions on average We will not detail all these series, but we will specify two female patients who suffer from hirsutism and have shown recently the efficiency of IPLs [2,3], and two other comparisons with laser (with correct scale) have not displayed significant difference between the Copyright Material – Provided by Taylor & Francis Review Copy – Not for Redistribution MEDpress-Inform Publishers, 1-3-4/H, build.1, Kochnovsky proezd, RC "Aerobus", 125319 Moscow, Russia Intense pulsed light 381 machines [4,5] The comparative study of Mc Gill in 2007 was, by contrast, much in favor of alexandrite laser compared to IPL used [6] It is therefore difficult to conclude scientifically A Part: IPL and Medical Indications of Depilatory Lasers Approved trials, supporting small sets, have also been made available for applications that are more medical: pseudofolliculitis of the beard, hidradenitis suppurativa, prevention of recurring cyst of the pilonidal sinus, depilation of grafted or torn areas, or depilation après surgical removal of melanocytaire naevus As with other depilation lasers, the emphasis is at the end of the literature, for an overall takeover of medical patient’s care, with a better understanding of hyperandrogenism The consensus concerning the assessments to be achieved and the therapeutic management of hirsutism must be known by the medical staff practicing laser depilation The concomitant prescription of metformin, strongly recommended in the prevention of metabolic problems associated with polymicrocystic ovary syndrome, seems to increase the success of depilation as this has been reported for the first time by an Iranian team using IPL [7] Among the patients with polymicrocystic ovary syndrome, obesity is correlated with the severity of hirsutism, and these obese patients had needed more depilation treatments with IPL than the nonobese ones; from a recent second lot of patients [8], this can help us in a better way of informing our patients In practice, the treatment area has to be shaved, and a clear ultrasound gel is applied to the area to help with the light transmission A small pressure is applied to the skin with the crystal, and the handpiece is moved with an overlap to the adjacent area for the next treatment and again till all the area has been treated The immediate effect that we are looking for is an expulsion of the hair or at least a modification of the hair (dilation of the stem) and, in a few minutes, the appearance of follicular papules The pulling of the hair with a pair of tweezers without any skin resistance is enough to prove the inefficiency of the light pulse The patients feel a brief heat sensation or burning sensation that diminishes in the following few minutes (otherwise we need to reduce the energy) The eventual immediate effects of harmful burn for the tests are delayed; we therefore need to wait several minutes (watch in hand 7–10 minutes) to judge the validity of the parameters used Contraindications are basically suntanning and spray tanning and dark skin types that increase the risk of burns and their resulting scarring (scars, dyschromia) Photosensitizing medication is contraindicated if there is a dermal accumulation with a peak absorption corresponding to the spectral range used In other words, there is no contraindication for photoepilation on a patient taking cyclin, for example, as his/her peak absorption will be in the UV and not in the visible light spectrum emitted by IPLs Treatment of pregnant women is regularly discussed in our French congresses, and there is no more risk of paradoxical regrowth or risk of light diffusion for the baby in utero with regard to the penetration of the photons that are absorbed by the skin and cannot go beyond the hypoderm and even less in the uterine muscle or amniotic fluid There are two types of specific secondary effects in depilatory condition: Leukotrichia The study of Radmanesh [9] on 821 patients treated for unwanted hairs by intense flashlamp finds only 29 cases of leukotrichia, 0.04%, which is very low compared to lasers Paradoxical stimulation But very little studies or reports are certainly possible, as with lasers, in the literature Always inquire about hormonal anomalies beforehand and spot patients at risk (hirsutism, polymicrocystic ovary syndrome, hyperandrogenism in general, back of young men, period of hormonal instability of women, and, therefore, surely not during pregnancy because the production of oestroprogestatifs protects them against this situation) A recent article reported a paradoxical stimulation rate of 5% on 991 patients, of overall high skin type as these were Iranian women with hirsutism; this looks quite low taking into context the hormonal side [9] In conclusion, the great adaptability to different skin types, hair color, and hair thickness is one of the major key features of IPL compared to lasers in the field of depilation For the same patient, we can start with a medium filter and long pulses and then change during the next sessions to a shorter-wavelength filter and smaller pulses to adjust to the progressive miniaturization of the hair By using highly adapted filters and fractionizing the pulses, we can treat skin types I–V, instead of having to use several lasers In one of its latest publications Laser versus IPL: Competing Technologies in Dermatology, Ross, in 2006, identified the advantages and disadvantages of each of the two technologies, laser and IPL, and the chosen example in the discussion to show that they can be interchanged with lasers in certain fields is epilation” [10] This is what we have focused on in France for many years It is later recognized by North American experts, and IPLs have started to outmatch poor man’s lasers (Figures 37.10 and 37.11) Vascular Field For the theory, with a filter called “vascular” that is determined by a spectral range from 500 to 1000 nm, there are more than 500 monochromatic light lasers that are used Unfortunately, physics is not the medical clinic, and it happens to be difficult to obtain reproducible results with IPLs than with vascular lasers A mathematical model study by Wolfgang and colleagues in 2007 is, however, very contributory [11], with a filtered band of Figure 37.10 Neck depilation with IPL 610–950 nm triple pulse 20 J/cm2 Copyright Material – Provided by Taylor & Francis Review Copy – Not for Redistribution MEDpress-Inform Publishers, 1-3-4/H, build.1, Kochnovsky proezd, RC "Aerobus", 125319 Moscow, Russia 382 AESTHETIC AND COSMETIC PRACTICE Figure 37.11 Neck depilation after three sessions of IPL 500–1000 nm, 15–30 J/cm2, and veins of 60–500 µm diameter, situated at a depth of 1.2 mm: • • • • • It is difficult to go over the 70°C necessary for the veins inferior to 60 µm It is therefore easier to treat with an IPL the telangiectatic vessels that are diffused by erythrosis For the vessel smaller than 150 µm, we need pulse durations inferior to 10 ms and energy densities of at least 15 J/cm2 The thinner the vein, the smaller the pulse and the higher the fluence For larger veins over 500 µm, we need a longer pulse of 10–30 ms and a fluence of at least adapted fluency It is better to use at first short-wavelength filters around 500 nm for thin veins and filters a little longer (more than 550 nm, even near IR) for larger vessels Integrated cooling systems protect the skin from burns but reduce the efficiency of the treatments by IPL the more the vessel is thin The IPL indications in this field are those of vascular lasers in general; a large number of publications dating back over a decade talk of good to very good results on all type of couperosis, ruby spots, stellar angiomas, and planar angiomas particularly thicker and older For poikiloderma of Civatte or erythrosis colli, IPLs are equally referred to in many publications With a new pulse delay less than 1.5 ms or new double broadband of wavelengths, it is now possible to approach the result of the vascular gold standard represented by pulsed dye laser (PDL) Faurschou et al have published a comparative study of PDL versus IPL on planar angiomas They concluded that the lightening with PDL is superior to 65% against 30% with IPL but mentioned, however, that IPL is perhaps more interesting on thicker angiomas or nodular forms Thanks to its wide spectral band and long wavelengths, IPL permits a stronger penetration and a stronger thermocoagulation effect on deeper vessels [12] In a 2009 study comparing many machines (alexandrite, Nd:YAG LP 1064, IPL) for the treatment of resistant planar angiomas, IPLs were in a very good position, taking into consideration the ratio efficacy/safety obtained [13] Nuehaus and colleagues compared PDL with IPL for erythrocouperosis rosaceiform on 22 patients, sessions monthly spaced, and the results using spectrophotometric measurements of the erythema did not show statistically significant difference between the types of machines; besides the decrease in erythema, they report an improvement in skin texture, itchiness, and flushes The patients indicated a preference to the PDL in the majority of cases relating to the treatment of pain as new PDLs are equipped with cooling tips, but the preference does not relate to posttreatment or results [14] For us, these series stay isolated, and it is admitted by a large majority of practitioners that vascular lasers are king in their field and that it is much more difficult to obtain reproducible results by laser with IPLs, especially in the hands of a new user It takes the use of a “powerful” machine, with many filters, and a lot of experience with the machine to set the optimal parameters A test patch allows a quick estimation for the achievable result of the indicated condition But be careful; this is only true for light skin type, and it is virtually impossible to treat vascular disorders on skin types above III with IPL without the risk of skin blistering We notice as well an improvement in skin said to be reactive, often affected with seborrheic dermatitis and rosacea, probably by various mechanisms (reduction of the lymphocytic infiltrate, reshuffle of procollagen III, reduction of vascular network, or the destruction of Demodex) In phlebology, the results are unpredictable Some studies show certain interest for IPLs, but the majority of the authors agree to writing of sclerosis, and the Nd:YAG stays the valued one IPLs can sometimes finish off the treatments for the following: • • Thin red vessels or violet ones with no evident connections with nearby reticular veins The “red socket” syndrome (Figure 37.12) It is necessary to be careful when working with the inside of the thigh and on the knees as the skin is very thin, and it is very difficult not to cause a mechanical vasoconstriction during treatment In practice, avoid pressing the crystal onto the skin when in vascular treatments (in epilation, we actually press down onto the skin) and just touch the skin, thus avoiding the mechanical vasoconstriction This is harder to achieve with heavy handpieces You just have to juxtapose the area of flash and be flat on the skin Ideally, even slightly lift the skin, which is stuck via the gel to the crystal (this is called floating) Some systems supply handpieces with smaller crystals (pointy) for an easy access to the curve areas of the face and reduce the pain (Figure 37.13) It is important as well to avoid Figure 37.12 Specific triangular

some use local anesthesia, a cooled handpiece, or a cold spray For example, look at the reduction in one session by IPL of a major telangiectasia couperose (Figures 37.14 and 37.15) or improvement of a more classic facial telangiectasia (Figures 37.16 and 37.17) And you can expect an improvement on a papule rosacea after few sessions with IPL, and IPL is also well known to be the gold standard for erythrosis colli (Figures 37.18 through 37.25) Figure 37.16 Couperosis before treatment with green filter 495–950 nm 11 J/cm2 monopulse 10 ms Pigmented Field Before the advent of lasers, pigmented lesions were treated by cryotherapy, medium peels, or aggressive mechanical/chemical dermabrasion It has turned out that IPLs are a credible alternative to Q-switched or frequency-doubled (Nd:YAG), alexandrite, or ruby lasers We must pay attention when using IPL on certain skin types, particularly Asians, and be prepared for noticeable/expected secondary effects due to postinflammatory hyperpigmentation but also severe complications of achromatic type of scars, and we advise variable spectral ranges (450–950/1200 nm) with 2–3 pulses and variable pulse durations depending on the machine (5–10 ms, sometimes fractioned into pulses) much longer than the TRT of the melanosomes and nearer the TRT of the epidermis (10 ms) If in theory IPLs are much less adapted than Q-switched lasers because their pulse duration varies from to 10 ms, while the TRT of melanosomes is 50–280 ms [15]), in clinical practice, we manage to go round the physics principle with fractioned pulses, efficient cooling systems of the epidermis, and the choice of a good spectral band (Figures 37.26 through 37.31) A fundamental controlled study was conducted in 2006 with sophisticated Copyright

rapidly to the surface of the epidermis to be suppressed On the other hand, melanocytes of the lesions are intact and their hyperactivity starts again after the treatment The authors therefore concluded that IPLs are efficient for the treatment of lesions, presenting an increase in the melanosome density in the basal layers of the epidermis, but that, when there exists melanocyte hyperactivity, we need to combine topical treatments such as hydroquinone or Q-switched lasers [16] And these works are fully coherent with the results of our clinical trials that we bring: around 75% of the improvement of lentigines from our trials published in 2000 and the comparative study of Wang [17] on 32 Asian patients of skin type III or IV (15 with ephelides, 17 with lentigines), one cheek

keratosis, it is viable to paint them with a permanent brown or black pen (marker) and fire a single low fluence flash with any filter This gives us an instant photoablation (this technique is called AbraLight ®) similar to erbium:YAG technique Otherwise, in our experience, the sign of a good light absorption (“end point” as the English speakers would call it) is achieved when the pigmented lesion darkens (“graying” or an increase of pigmentation by at least one tone of the treated lesions) on top of moderate erythema, showing a reddish halo around the lesions Lightening, by fragmentation of
