Low-Level Laser Therapy for Patients with Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is an emerging treatment modality for the management of neuropathic pain. 


Depending on the affected nerves, diabetic neuropathy symptoms can range from pain and numbness in your legs and feet to problems with your digestive system, urinary tract, blood vessels, and heart.


Some people have mild symptoms. But for others, diabetic neuropathy can be quite painful and disabling.

The Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is seen to improve the quality of life of older patients with painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy as it is non-invasive and has no reported side effects. This makes it a very low-risk treatment option for patients with small fiber neuropathy.

It works by triggering biochemical changes within cells. Following this treatment, old patients in particular are reporting a decrease in their neuropathy symptoms and, in some cases, are regenerating the small fiber nerves in the epidermis.

Similar improvements are only noted following the use of effective and highly professional Low-Level laser devices such as the Multi-functional dual-wavelength surgical laser system SIFLASER-4.2.

This device provides a treatment alternative for those old patients who have not responded to other therapies making surgical interventions often unnecessary.

Specialists proclaim that the most suitable laser wavelength for this disease patients should not exceed 632.8 nm. This device’s wavelength is 650nm < 2mW  so it can certainly be tailored to suit neurologists’ treatment procedures.  

Further, one of its key features is that it provides painless Low-Level Laser Therapy, the exact thing diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients look for as they constantly suffer from unsupportable pain.

The SIFLASER-4.2 is also Non-invasive, non-toxic, has no known adverse effects and it doesn’t need any drug interactions. All these options qualify it to be the exact device needed to heal such a disease.
