  1. Elite MPX – Multiplex 755nm/1064nm for the treatment of leg veinsPhotographs courtesy Raminder Saluja MD

  2. Why Multiplex (MPX)? • Sequential firing of two gold standard wavelengths just 10ms apart • 755nm Alex turns the oxyhemoglobin to methemoglobin in the targeted blood vessel • Methemoglobin has a higher optical absorption • 1064nm Nd:YAG is now more efficiently absorbed (300-500% better absorption) • Blending in 755nm Alex allows for a reduction in the deeper penetrating 1064nm Nd:YAG – a more comfortable treatment for your patient

  3. MPX for leg veins - considerations • Skin types I-III • Always do a test spot • 755nm Alex FIRST followed by 1064nm Nd:YAG • Integrated chiller on high (cool packs optional) • 7mm spot size for optimal penetration • 20-25J/cm2 of Alex and 40-60J/cm2 of YAG • Pulse width 20-40ms

  4. Before & After (6 weeks post 1 Tx) Spot Size: 7mm Fluence: Alex/YAG: 20/50J/cm2 Pulse Duration: 20/20ms Treated vessels circled in white

  5. Before & After (4 weeks post 1 Tx) Spot Size: 7mm Fluence: Alex/YAG: 23/55J/cm2 Pulse Duration: 20/20ms Treated vessels circled in white

  6. Before & After (4 weeks post 1 Tx) Spot Size: 7mm Fluence: Alex/YAG: 25/55J/cm2 Pulse Duration: 20/20ms Treated vessels circled in white
