What is the effect of the wavelength 970 nm in the CUBE4 laser treatment?

The wavelength of 970 nm in the CUBE4 laser treatment is effective in creating microscopic thermal gradients within biological tissues. This process involves the selective absorption of laser energy by water and other chromophores present in tissues, leading to localized heating. This thermal gradient helps to promote healing through various mechanisms, including improved circulation, enhanced cell metabolism, and increased collagen production.

Microscopic thermal gradients can lead to a therapeutic effect by stimulating the body’s natural healing processes, as the heat can encourage increased blood flow to the area, reducing inflammation and pain. This mechanism is fundamental in various applications of laser therapy, making it particularly valuable in promoting recovery from injuries or surgeries.

While other wavelengths may have specific interactions with different tissue components like hemoglobin or melanin, the 970 nm wavelength's primary role is its ability to create these beneficial thermal gradients, enhancing tissue repair and regeneration.
