DOT Therapy (Dermal Optical Thermolysis) is the leading micro-ablative approach to laser skin rejuvenation. It is ideal for treatment of: * Dyschromia * Skin laxity * Wrinkles * Fine lines * Dermal lesions * Photoaging * Acne scars   Perforations created with DOT THERAPY Photos courtesy of Deborah S.

DOT THERAPY creates thousands of microscopic perforations, which induce immediate skin tightening and stimulate new collagen growth, improving the skin's texture and tone to fight fine lines, deep wrinkles and even acne scars. The key to DOT Therapy is the SmartXide laser. It leaves the skin around each of the perforations intact, which allows the epidermis to heal from the edge of these tiny holes very rapidly, significantly improving overall complexion and reducing patient downtime.

STANDARD ABLATIVE SKIN RESURFACING
In addition to standard DOT Therapy treatments, the SmartXide laser also delivers the versatility to adjust power, dwell time, DOT pattern, density and shape to customize treatment, especially for those patients with severe wrinkling or advanced photo-damage.

DERMATOLOGY AND PLASTIC SURGERY
Using the appropriate settings and alternative hand pieces, the SmartXide DOT CO₂ laser can also be used for incision, excision, and coagulation of various soft tissues for a range of applications in dermatology, plastic surgery and general surgery, including the treatment of skin tags and warts, and performing blepharoplasty.
