Evaluation Skin Stiffness Gradient on Skin After LLLT

June 25, 2026 updated by: Gilang Titah Ramadhan, Asia University

Optimization of Low-Level Laser Therapy Via Biomechanical Properties Analysis Using Optical Coherence Tomography on Skin

This study evaluates the effects of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) on skin elasticity by measuring a 3x3 stiffness gradient across 9 points spaced 1 cm apart. Using an air-pressure pump integrated with an Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) system, a deep learning model is utilized to automatically segment and track micro-scale skin movement during deformation.
