Applying Laser Therapy for Dermatomyositis

Dermatomyositis is an uncommon inflammatory disease marked by muscle weakness and a distinctive skin rash. This disease Dermatomyositis affects more females than males.

The cause of dermatomyositis is unknown, but the disease has much in common with autoimmune disorders, in which your immune system mistakenly attacks your body tissues.

Genetic and environmental factors also might play a role. Environmental factors could include viral infections, sun exposure, certain medications and smoking.

The signs and symptoms of dermatomyositis can appear suddenly or develop gradually over time. The most common signs and symptoms include:

·         Skin changes. A violet-colored or dusky red rash develops, most commonly on your face and eyelids and on your knuckles, elbows, knees, chest and back. The rash, which can be itchy and painful, is often the first sign of dermatomyositis.

·         Muscle weakness. Progressive muscle weakness involves the muscles closest to the trunk, such as those in your hips, thighs, shoulders, upper arms and neck. The weakness affects both the left and right sides of your body, and tends to gradually worsen.

There’s no cure for dermatomyositis, but periods of symptom improvement can occur. Laser treatment, for instance, can help clear the skin rash and help patients regain muscle strength and function.

Based on this scientific finding, SIFSOF medical company has developed an advanced laser machine that performs an adequate treatment for dermatomyositis issues. The device has been recurrently used and appreciated by dermatologists mostly for its ability to match with the disease’s exact medical requirements.

This device is named the Smart Medical 26.2Watt Diode Laser SIFLASER-3.2, one of the most efficient and highly recommended laser machines for dermatomyositis diagnosis and treatment.

The SIFLASER-3.2 possesses 4 wavelengths: 635nm, 810nm, 980nm and 1064nm with Maximum power up to 26.2Watt. With such quality, it will offer extremely adjustable, easy and friendly aesthetic operation that smoothly adapts with the gravity of this issue’s different cases.

To explain in more detail, this Laser’s light will be placed against the damaged skin areas. Followingly, the photons penetrate several centimeters and get absorbed by the mitochondria, the energy producing part of a cell. This energy fuels many positive physiological responses resulting in the restoration of normal cell color, morphology and function.

Further, being a disease that causes muscle weakness, this device’s Laser therapy will directly affect the nerve cells which block pain transmitted by these cells to the brain and which decreases nerve sensitivity. Also, due to less inflammation, there is less edema and less pain.

In simpler terms, the SIFLASER-3.2 will significantly speed up the healing process and consequently reduce this disease’s affected skin surfaces and regenerate new and undamaged skin tissues. In that way, it will ultimately relieve patients from the severe pain sensed.

The machine has another unique advantage. Dermatologists, actually, could easily track treatment times, save protocols and view patient profiles in the laser, and even update laser software through the internet.

Dermatomyositis is a serious disease with a disease‐related mortality of at least 10%. This makes early treatment a must.

By applying laser therapy, for instance, patients can control the symptoms of the condition, heal their skin, get rid of its related pain and eventually be able to carry out everyday activities without feeling the discomfort associated with the disorder.

However, to reach that end, a highly professional laser machine is needed to guarantee the best result possible.  Based on all the above-mentioned characteristics, the diode Laser system SIFLASER-3.2 seems to be the most suitable device for diagnosing and treating Dermatomyositis inflammatory disease.
