Equipped with a powerful Li-ion battery, it ensures a long treatment time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe L400 is an effective and powerful all-round laser, specifically developed for the treatment of pain and injuries in horses, dogs, and cats. The laser wavelength of 808 nm ensures effective penetration into skin and tissue. Treatment depth: approximately 3-4 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e Why choose the PERSONAL-LASER™ L400?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e The PERSONAL-LASER™ L400 is the big brother of the L200 and the most powerful PERSONAL-LASER for home use. With a laser output of 400 mW at a wavelength of 808 nm (invisible\/infrared), it covers all major applications. Pet owners can thus treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries in dogs, cats, and horses themselves. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; max-width: 1600px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0890\/0372\/1035\/files\/laser-arthrose-katze.jpg?v=1733541681\" alt=\"Laser treatment for hip osteoarthritis\"\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe L400 is significantly more powerful than its smaller brother, allowing the laser light to penetrate deeper into the skin, muscles, tendons, and joints. This higher power also reduces treatment times. The L400 is particularly well-suited for treating deeper wounds and injuries.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Here are a few basic properties that laser light is said to have:\u003cbr\u003e \u003cem\u003e- Stimulation of cell metabolism\u003cbr\u003e - ATP production\u003cbr\u003e - Local concentration of lymphocytes, leukocytes and macrophages\u003cbr\u003e - Improvement of blood circulation\u003cbr\u003e - Stimulation of collagen production\u003cbr\u003e - Improved oxygen uptake into the cells - Normalization of the Na-K pump - Normalized cell membrane potential\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe laser light generated by the L400 is monochromatic (single wavelength), coherent (all photons move in the same phase and direction), and collimated (minimal divergence\/expansion of the laser beam over a distance). These three properties allow the therapy laser light to be focused on a specific area of ​​the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It also penetrates deeper tissue without heating or damaging it. This allows the laser beam to interact with the tissue with very few side effects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; max-width: 675px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cardiovibe.shop-cdn.com\/media\/image\/98\/5b\/aa\/laser-wellenlaengen.jpg%20\" alt=\"Laser light and different wavelengths\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The optimal wavelength range for LLLT\/PBM (photobiomodulation) applications ranges from 600 nm to approximately 1000 nm. This is also referred to as the \"biological window.\" At longer wavelengths, the laser beam penetrates deeper into the tissue. At the same time, absorption by the animal's hair and skin pigment is minimized.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eShorter wavelengths are used to treat superficial wounds and joint injuries. Longer wavelengths are better suited for laser therapy of muscle and tendon injuries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003e The difference between LEDs and laser diodes \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; max-width: 441px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0890\/0372\/1035\/files\/kohaerentes-laserlicht.jpg?v=1733541685\" alt=\"Coherent laser light real laser\" align=\"right\"\u003e There are various veterinary lasers on the market that are sold for applications in animal physiotherapy. Often, you'll find LED devices that are labeled as laser therapy devices, but differ in some respects from \"real\" lasers, such as the Personal Laser L400.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The abbreviation LED stands for \"light-emitting diode.\" A diode that emits light when current flows through it, often in many different colors. The word LASER, on the other hand, stands for \"light amplification by stimulation of emitted radiation.\" A light source is first amplified in a medium and then emitted in a special way, described below.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eA true veterinary laser is monochromatic. This means that the light it produces has a single, very specific wavelength. LEDs can also produce monochromatic or nearly monochromatic light. However, only true lasers like the L400 concentrate their full power into a small spot. Laser light is coherent (see illustration), and coherent light can be transmitted over much greater distances than incoherent light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e LEDs distribute their power over a larger area during application, but without achieving a greater penetration depth into the tissue, as is possible with the Personal Laser L400.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCalculation of laser dosage and energy density\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAn important factor in laser therapy for animals is calculating the appropriate energy density for the specific illness or injury. To calculate the energy density, the units are converted; this involves converting the laser power in mW to watts. For the L400, this is 0.4 watts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Power, energy, and time are related, with power being the rate of energy delivery over time. The energy delivered by a laser can be calculated by multiplying the laser power by the treatment duration.

This eliminates energy loss from the laser beam due to reflection from the skin, allowing more energy to penetrate the tissue.\u003cbr\u003e • The laser should be held perpendicular to the treatment site. Otherwise, light energy may be lost due to beam deflection and reflection. \u003cbr\u003eWhen the L400 laser applies gentle pressure to the skin, part of the blood flow to the treatment area is blocked. This reduces the absorption of laser energy by the hemoglobin and oxyhemoglobin in the blood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eScan treatment technique\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cimg style=\"width: 100%; height: auto; max-width: 318px;\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0890\/0372\/1035\/files\/laser-scantechnik.jpg?v=1733541689\" alt=\"Laser scanning treatment veterinary medicine\" align=\"right\"\u003e The scanning technique is one of three treatment options that can be performed with the L400 veterinary laser.
