Laser-Guided Therapy for Basal Cell Skin Cancer

Basal cell carcinoma is a type of skin cancer that most often develops on areas of skin exposed to the sun, such as the face. On brown and Black skin, basal cell carcinoma often looks like a bump that’s brown or glossy black and has a rolled border. Basal cell carcinoma is a type of skin cancer.

Most basal cell and squamous cell skin cancers are caused by repeated and unprotected skin exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays from sunlight, as well as from man-made sources such as tanning beds. UV rays can damage the DNA inside skin cells.

These are the most common signs and symptoms of this disease:

• A shiny, skin-coloured bump that’s translucent, meaning you can see a bit through the surface. …

• A brown, black or blue lesion — or a lesion with dark spots — with a slightly raised, translucent border.

• A flat, scaly patch with a raised edge. …

• A white, waxy, scar-like lesion without a clearly defined border.

Basal cell carcinoma is most often treated with surgery to remove all of cancer and some of the healthy tissue around it. Options might include Surgical excision. In this procedure, the specialist surgeon/dermatologist cuts out the cancerous lesion and a surrounding margin of healthy skin.

What is worth noting in this regard is that surgical operations are becoming less and less requested as they’re seizing their place for a safer, quicker and bloodless type of surgery which is laser surgery.

 In laser surgeries, the dermatologist directs a beam of intense light at the tumor to targeting superficial BCCs. Some lasers vaporize (ablate) the skin cancer while others (nonablative lasers) convert the beam of light to heat, which destroys the tumor without injuring the surface of the skin.

To perfectly accomplish this sensitive excision task, a proper and highly professional laser machine is needed.

In this vein, the  Portable Surgery Laser System FDA SIFLASER-1.2A presents itself as one of the most recommended devices among surgeons viewing its high efficacy in treating such types of cancer.

This device’s blue laser light interacts better with the tissue components haemoglobin or melanin. At 980 nm, the machine performs better and gentler cutting, even at lower power.

As such, its improved cutting performance makes it ideally suited to all surgical applications, particularly for Basal Cell Skin cancer.

What also makes the SIFLASER-1.2A highly recommended by surgeons is that it displays an accurate alignment and exact sighting during the treatment. All thanks to its green aiming beam.

To further improve the treatment, the device is supported with a fibre guide laser. So, it is compatible with various endoscopic uses. Also, these special fibres are sterilisable which, in turn, prevents any possible cross-infection while guaranteeing a clean and bloodless operative area.

With 980 nm wavelength and 15W as maximum power, the device is thought to perfectly suit Basal Cell Skin cancer highly-sensitive surgeries.

That is highly attributed to the fact that The SIFLASER-1.2 A uses infrared wavelengths and ultra-blue light to ensure high-level performance.

That is also estimated to reduce thermal damage and its peculiar interaction with haemoglobin.

Due to all these features, the SIFLASER-1.2 A guarantees increased cutting effectiveness, much higher than the one obtained with infrared lasers.

Since their invention, laser use and applications have expanded rapidly as it proved to be a successful addition to cancer surgery.

In this article, we discuss the benefits of laser therapy and precisely the efficacy of SIFLASER-1.2 A as a surgical laser device capable of efficiently treating Basal Cell Skin cancer.
