Intense pulsed light is a high-intensity, broad-spectrum, and continuous light source with a wavelength ranging from 400 to 1200 nm. It has many familiar names, such as photorejuvenation, color light, E-light, OPT, AOPT, DPL, M22, BB-light, CC-light, and so on. Why are there so many names? This is closely related to the technological iteration of intense pulsed light. Looking at the development history of intense pulsed light: In 1989, foreign scholars proposed the non-ablative treatment concept, which is to treat skin diseases by emitting intense pulsed light with a high-intensity flash lamp. In 1994, the first market-oriented intense pulsed light treatment instrument in the United States came out, mainly used for treating vascular problems. However, this first-generation machine had no cooling system and could not accurately control the emission of pulsed light, and it has now disappeared from the market. After the second and third generations of technological changes, In 2004, an American company improved and upgraded the traditional intense pulsed light technology, opening the era of optimal pulse technology, abbreviated as OPT. By using IPM pulse counting to control the precise discharge of the capacitor, the problem of photon attenuation was solved, and the precise control of the pulse was achieved. In 2009, an Israeli company launched the precise intense pulsed light technology, abbreviated as DPL. By equipping with different treatment heads, the treatment purpose beca
