What is the purpose of the 970 nm treatment beam in the K-series laser?

The 970 nm treatment beam in the K-series laser plays a significant role in creating warmth and improving tissue absorption. This wavelength is within the infrared range, which effectively penetrates deeper into the tissues. The warmth generated helps to increase blood flow and improve metabolism in the targeted areas, facilitating better absorption of the laser energy by the tissues.

As a result, the increased temperature and improved circulation promote healing processes and reduce inflammation. This deeper penetration and heat generation make the 970 nm wavelength particularly beneficial in therapeutic applications, where enhanced absorption of light energy by tissues is crucial for achieving desired treatment outcomes.

While other options address important functions related to laser therapy, the primary purpose of the 970 nm beam specifically focuses on tissue warmth and absorption enhancement, which are key for maximizing the efficacy of the treatment.
