“I recently introduced Cold Laser Therapy to my patients with astounding results. Patients presenting with Osteoarthritis of the knees and spine are receiving freedom of pains that have plagued them for a number of years…My patient population has doubled because of my addition of Low Level Laser in my practice. One of my patients who had osteoarthritis of her knee for almost 4 years and was scheduled for knee replacement became symptom free after having cold laser treatment applied to her knees. She received a total of 12 treatments and after her first treatment her pain was reduced by 50%. I have seen my time spent with patients reduced and the patients receiving a better treatment regimen for their condition. I highly recommend all Chiropractors to consider adding MicroLight Laser to their treatment regimen.”

Erchonia's Zerona laser getting a 75% negative review from patients:
http://www.realself.com/Zerona/reviews
Both the Erchonia and Microlight ML830 Cold Laser were cleared by the FDA in 2002. The Erchonia was the first 3a laser and the Microlight ML830 was the first 3b laser approved. 3a and 3b are classifications from the FDA, which is based on the unit's power. Class 3b has more power, then Class 3a.
Prior to November 15, 2006 both companies sold a laser around $10,000. The ML830® price has steadily gone down, as production materials have become more affordable. In fact all the laser manufacturers, with exception to Erchonia, have lowered their prices in recent years. But, Erchonia is still charging a premium for their products. This is mostly due to operating costs. They spend quite a bit of money on national seminars, and more specifically paying top industry speakers to sell their products.
The Erchonia logic - By Jan Tunér, Swedish Laser Medical Society (click here)
The Swedish Laser Medical Society's website, is considered the BIBLE for cold laser therapy. They posted an interesting article on Erchonia. Here is one of the many quotes from them:
"Erchonia either shows little understanding of the conclusions that can be drawn from individual studies, or worse, knowingly chooses to ignore a vast body of scientific literature that states the opposite. For example, leading researchers in the US are using 830 nm for nerve regeneration"
Erchonia is based on a 632nm laser diode at 5 mW of power. A laser pointer from Sharper Image also uses a 632nm laser diode at 5 mW of power. Not that they are the same machine, but they use the same technology and specs.
FDA Warnings: This company has had its share of controversy over the years. Going back to their days as Tuco, the FDA has warned them several times about misleading and false statements about their products.

Because this is a Class IV laser with a very high energy output (2000 to 6000 mW depending on device), it has a much higher potential danger threshold. Its lowest setting is 1000 mW, which can limit its application and usefulness. As with the other Class IV devices, clinical evidence supporting the use of such high power is lacking. Power increment adjustments are limited to 1000mW at a time.
According to their 510K letter with the FDA: The K-Laser is a heating lamp.
The only laser manufacturers with a 510K clearance as a NHN (non thermal) laser are the ML830 & Erchonia Laser. Both companies have a specific clearance with the FDA.
This company, and others, are just piggy backing on an old heat lamp code. Instead of being approved as a cold laser (laser emitting diodes), they were approved as an LED (light emitting diodes) heat lamp.
CLASS IV WARNINGS:
FDA - Description of Class IV Laser (Laser Product Hazard): Immediate skin hazard and eye hazard from exposure to either the direct or reflected beam; may also present a FIRE HAZARD
Wikepedia: Class IV/4 lasers CAN BURN SKIN, and in some cases, even scattered light can cause eye and/or skin damage.
Europe (EN & IEC): Class IV is the highest class of laser radiation. Radiation in this class is very dangerous, and viewing of the diffuse reflection may be dangerous. Class 4 laser beams are CAPABLE OF SETTING FIRE to materials onto which they are projected.

If you are thinking of adding a Class IV laser to your practice, make sure you consult a malpractice lawyer. There have been many reported problems with Class IV laser. In order to use one, you must have a laser officer on staff. Many state associations are currently working to ban these lasers, due to the dangers.
A true COLD LASER is non thermal (no heat). It has been used worldwide for over 25 years, and is very safe to use in your practice.

Terraquant is not a NHN (non thermal) FDA cleared laser diode device. They, like many, are using the old heat lamp clearance on the FDA books. It has only one weak laser diode (7mw) and a cluster of LEDs (light emitting diodes). See below chart for Laser vs LED/SLD.
According to their 510K letter with the FDA: The Terraquant MQ2000 v.5 and HandyRx MQ2007 Lasers are heating lamps.
The only laser manufacturers with a 510K clearance as a NHN (non thermal) laser are the ML830 & Erchonia Laser. Both companies have a specific clearance with the FDA.

Thor is the only company that has a license to market an 830nm device in the US under an agreement from Microlight Corporation of America (maker of the ML830 Laser). The primiary disadvantage of the Thor units is the price and the bulkiness of the driver units (control boxes). While they are robust, th
ey are also heavy, cumbersome and awkward.

Chattanooga is not a NHN (non thermal) FDA cleared laser diode device. They, like many, are using the old heat lamp clearance on the FDA books
According to their 510K letter with the FDA: The Chattanooga Laser is a heating lamp.
The only laser manufacturers with a 510K clearance as a NHN (non thermal) laser are the ML830 & Erchonia Laser. Both companies have a specific clearance with the FDA. This company, and others, are just piggy backing on an old heat lamp code. Instead of being approved as a cold laser (laser emitting diodes), they were approved as an LED (light emitting diodes) heat lamp.

“I have been a board certified plastic surgeon for over 30 years and have seldom come across such a simple and innovative healing laser. I use it myself and have seen and felt its great attribute in healing of scars and aiding in bone growth. I have countless patients who now can experience the same. Every week I find another patient who has a similar experience with the ML 830 laser.”
Daniel Man, M.D.

“I recently introduced Cold Laser Therapy to my patients with astounding results. Patients presenting with Osteoarthritis of the knees and spine are receiving freedom of pains that have plagued them for a number of years…My patient population has doubled because of my addition of Low Level Laser in my practice. One of my patients who had osteoarthritis of her knee for almost 4 years and was scheduled for knee replacement became symptom free after having cold laser treatment applied to her knees. She received a total of 12 treatments and after her first treatment her pain was reduced by 50%. I have seen my time spent with patients reduced and the patients receiving a better treatment regimen for their condition. I highly recommend all Chiropractors to consider adding MicroLight Laser to their treatment regimen.”

No 510k Clerance has been issued by the FDA for this device (laser or led) that we can find at fda.gov.
Its illegal to use non- FDA compliant lasers on humans. If you search ebay for other cold lasers, you will notice the other non -FDA cleared lasers state clearly that their products are not meant for humans. For more information you should check with a malpractice lawyer to make sure you are covered using non-FDA cleared lasers in your practice.
FDA WARNING ON COLDLASERTHERAPY.US
The FDA states, "A review of our records reveals that you have not obtained marketing approval or clearance before you began offering your product for sale, which is a violation of the law."

Because this is a Class IV laser with a very high energy output (2 Watts), it has a much higher potential danger threshold. As with the other Class IV devices, clinical evidence supporting the use of such high power is lacking.

CLASS IV WARNINGS:
FDA - Description of Class IV Laser (Laser Product Hazard): Immediate skin hazard and eye hazard from exposure to either the direct or reflected beam; may also present a FIRE HAZARD
Wikepedia: Class IV/4 lasers CAN BURN SKIN, and in some cases, even scattered light can cause eye and/or skin damage.
Europe (EN & IEC): Class IV is the highest class of laser radiation. Radiation in this class is very dangerous, and viewing of the diffuse reflection may be dangerous. Class 4 laser beams are CAPABLE OF SETTING FIRE to materials onto which they are projected.

If you are thinking of adding a Class IV laser to your practice, make sure you consult a malpractice lawyer. There have been many reported problems with Class IV laser. In order to use one, you must have a laser officer on staff. Many state associations are currently working to ban these lasers, due to the dangers.
A true COLD LASER is non thermal (no heat). It has been used worldwide for over 25 years, and is very safe to use in your practice.

Isn't Everybody FDA Approved
Does it seem that every Laser/LED on the web is FDA approved? Here is a bit of history on why.
Microlight Corporation and Erchonia were the first to get FDA clearance back in 2002. Microlight, for example, spent millions of dollars over 10 years, submitting countless research and two double blind studies (Baylor & GM Motors) to get their ML830® cleared by the FDA. Erchonia had a similar situation. To our knowledge, no other laser company has ever received a new specific FDA clearance.
NOW EVERYBODY ELSE.....
Let's say you had the option to wait years, spending millions of dollars on research/studies or you had an option to basically spend 39 cents on a stamp and get your product FDA Cleared. Which route would you go?
Welcome to the world of LED/SLD/Heat Lamp devices.
THE HEAT LAMP.....
Their is an old FDA clearance on record that states something like this: "Indicated for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, arthritis and muscle spasm, relieving stiffness, promoting relaxation tissue, and to temporarily increase local blood circulation where heat is indicated."
WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH LASER THERAPY ?
Nothing (LOL). But these clever companies determined they could piggy-back on this heat lamp's FDA clearance and fool the market into thinking they were buying FDA-cleared lasers. A few companies have even piggy-backed on the ML830® clearance in the last few years.
BOTTOM LINE......
The ML830® Laser has been in the market for about 15 years, with hundreds of studies and research supporting it. Be careful that you are not suckered into buying a LED device that a salesman claims is as good as a ML830® Laser. If he can produce even ONE double blind study supporting his claims, then buy the LED......

LASER vs LED/SLD Devices
Some manufacturers produce devices with super luminous diodes (SLD) or light emitting diodes (LED). Monochromatic non-coherent light can be helpful for superficial wound healing, however, numerous studies have shown that lasers are far more effective due to their unique properties and penetration depth. Many super luminous & light emitting diode products are usually very low powered (typically 5mW-15mW), and much of this energy is scattered, therefore requiring longer treatment times.
See the chart below to see how typical light penetrates the skin. LED’s will normally penetrate less then 1cm. SLD’s are more powerful and can penetrate about 2.5 cm. But Lasers at 830nm can penetrate 5 cm. Far more effective then SLD’s or LED’s.
