As the Coblation® process generates significantly less heat than lasers, less thermal injury is produced.

Because the healing period is related to the amount of thermal damage, the recovery period following coblation is more rapid and generally less uncomfortable.

Complications such as prolonged redness pigmentary changes and localized scarring occur less frequently.

As the Coblation® instrument is applied directly to the skin surface, the surgeon has excellent control over the depth of treatment which is varied according to individual requirements.

Cost is substantially less than comparable laser treatment.
