Q-switched laser removal of tattoos: a clinical and spectroscopic investigation of the mechanism, 1996
via Q-switched laser removal of tattoos: a clinical and spectroscopic investigation of the mechanism | DeepDyve A lot of patients kept asking me why green ink was so difficult to remove with the ruby laser. At the time we didn’t know. So I gathered a bunch of tattoo inks from Terry’s Tattoos in Glasgow and… Continue reading Q-switched laser removal of tattoos: a clinical and spectroscopic investigation of the mechanism, 1996
Variable pulsewidth vascular system for dermatology | (1994) | Gustafsson | Publications | SPIE
via Variable pulsewidth vascular system for dermatology | (1994) | Gustafsson | Publications | Spie This report describes the world’s first IPL system, developed by Morgan Gustafsson in the early 1990s. Back then we didn’t call it IPL – that name came later. Morgan approached me at an ASLMS conference after I gave a… Continue reading Variable pulsewidth vascular system for dermatology | (1994) | Gustafsson | Publications | SPIE

Calculation of the clinical parameters to effect removal of Port Wine Stains | (1990) | MJ Murphy | Publications | SPIE
via Calculation of the clinical parameters to effect removal of port wine stains | (1990) | Murphy | Publications | Spie I started doing Monte Carlo and numerical thermal models in 1987 to try and figure out the ‘best’ set of laser parameters to treat PWS vessels. That was a long time ago! Since… Continue reading Calculation of the clinical parameters to effect removal of Port Wine Stains | (1990) | MJ Murphy | Publications | SPIE
Port Wine Stains: optical assessment and practical implementation of treatment | (1990) | MJ Murphy | Publications | SPIE
via Port wine stains: optical assessment and practical implementation of treatment | (1990) | Murphy | Publications | Spie A report I co-authored with some colleagues in Strathclyde University describing our attempts to treat PWS with Candela’s original pulsed dye laser, back in the mid 1980s. We designed a PC-operated scanning system to deliver… Continue reading Port Wine Stains: optical assessment and practical implementation of treatment | (1990) | MJ Murphy | Publications | SPIE
“The Big Freeze” – cryolipolysis and how it works
It’s the ‘latest’ thing out there but is it as easy as it sounds….? Here’s an article I wrote on this topic a couple of years ago. PDF version Mike. mike@dermalase.co.uk
Eggs, and their Arrhenius Parameters
Eggs! Wonderful things. Scrambled, boiled, fried, curried…. Also, very useful to demonstrate the difference in the Arrhenius Parameters with different proteins. Eggs contain at least two sets of proteins – the yoke (also including some fat, vitamins, lecithin and minerals) and albumen (about 40 different proteins in the white). When we cook eggs we… Continue reading Eggs, and their Arrhenius Parameters
My little insects… (tattoos)
When I discovered that high-speed particles of ink were flying out of laser treated tattoos in 2012, I also found that many of these particles had been embedded in the glass slides. Using an optical microscope I found that many of these ink particles looked like ‘insects’ – just like those in the movie Jurassic… Continue reading My little insects… (tattoos)
Cosmetic News articles
Cosmetic News articles I have written a number of articles covering a range of subjects for Cosmetic News – an industry magazine. I have collated them into a single pdf file for your perusal. If you have any queries please let me know.
