Fiber Lasers
This laser uses very little laser power to amplify light using rare elements
of the earth such as erbium. Fiber lasers are very popular in endoscopy as
they assist in helping the doctor diagnose a patient while looking into
certain parts of the body. Fiber lasers are also used for fat and tattoo
removal. Fiber lasers aren’t entirely composed of ionic bonds like the other
lasers but are said to shine the brightest in comparison to the others.
Gas Lasers
Types of Lasers Used in
Medicine
This laser is created when an electric current flows out of a gas to form
light. Gas lasers are used for skin and vein removal surgery. Gas lasers
are also often used for medical and surgical eye diseases as well.

This is an ultraviolet laser that uses noble gases such as helium and
argon. The excimer laser is commonly used in Lasik eye surgery.
Dermatologists use Excimer lasers to treat vitiligo.
