MicroPulse Technology offers a finer control of the thermal effects which means it is possible to achieve the benefits of laser photocoagulation without the visible burn and associated side effects - this is known as subthreshold photocoagulation.

MicroPulse Technology is best described as a CW-Pulse (continuous wave) which is "chopped" into adjustable "on" and "off" periods which enable the thermal energy to dissipate and slow the temperature elevation in the treated area. 

MicroPulse offers improved safety, less thermal damage and less pain for the patient.
