Summary:
Effective Infrared lasers for medical applications especially for removal of hair and some pigmented lesions are investigated. The lasers with the wavelength of about 700nm are used considering the absorption coefficients of water, oxyhemoglobin, oxyhemoglobin and melanin. We selected about 100mW semiconductor lasers, which are enough output power to examine the laser effect on the melanin. In this research, a hair is selected for melanin sample. The purpose of this paper is to consider a dependence of wavelength on a temperature rise in a melanin.
