Macular amyloidosis (MA) is the most subtle form of cutaneous amyloidosis, characterized
by brownish macules in a rippled pattern, distributed predominantly over the trunk
and extremities. MA has a high incidence in Asia, Middle East, and South America.

Macular amyloidosis causes are currently unknown. This condition can be inherited
from an older generation or due to environmental factors.

Common triggers such as increased friction, scratching, itching and rubbing of the
affected skin surface can aggravate macular amyloidosis in patients.

Among the treatment modalities that have been used for amyloidosis, the  laser treatment
has shown success in the treatment of Macular Amyloidosis. It reduced the appearance
of amyloid plaques in macular amyloidosis.

For this specific reason the medical company SIFSOF has developed a laser device
that performs an adequate treatment with this disease’s exact requirements.

The device described is [Smart Medical 26.2Watt Diode Laser SIFLASER-3.2,](https://sifsof.com/product/smart-medical-diode-laser-siflaser-3-2/)
one of the most efficient and highly recommended laser machines when it comes to
the treatment of Macular Amyloidosis issue.

This device has 4 wavelengths: 635nm, 810nm, 980nm and 1064nm with Maximum power
up to 26.2Watt.

With such specification, it will offer extremely adjustable, easy and friendly aesthetic
operation that greatly matches with the gravity of the patient’s case.

Added to that, doctors could easily track treatment times, save protocols and view
patient profiles in the laser, and even update laser software through the internet.

Being a dermatological issue in essence, this Laser’s light will be placed against
the affected skin area, 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 morphology and function.

Correspondingly, the SIFLASER-3.2 significantly increases the formation of new capillaries
in damaged tissue which will speed up the healing process and consequently reduce
this disease’s affected skin surfaces.

Very rarely, nodular amyloidosis progresses to a life-threatening condition. Still,
in all cases, treatment remains necessary. The effective treatment, however, necessitates
a highly professional device.

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 Macular Amyloidosis
issue.
