KTP Laser

The KTP Laser is used in the USA since approx. 20 years. It is a laser that has a photoangiolytic effect and therefore works different than a CO2 laser. With KTP, vessels in deeper layers can be coagulated without destroying the covering epithelium.

The KTP laser works at a frequency of 532nm and can be routed into the larynx via a glass fiber. This enables office-based lasering and use in general anesthesia.

Photoangiolysis allows for gentle, non-contact targeted therapy on the sensitive tissues of the vocal folds.
