What is LichenLase?

Lichen sclerosus (LS) is a chronic condition that cannot be cured, but it can be managed effectively with the right therapy. Fotona’s LichenLase is an Nd:YAG laser treatment with Fotona’s unique PIANO pulse mode that efficiently improves symptoms of LS. For patients presenting with white plaques, the treatment can be enhanced with an additional step using Er:YAG laser.
