J-Plasma, created by Bovie Medical, works at far lower temperatures than traditional CO2 lasers, resulting in less Damage to surrounding tissue. Surgeons treating women with endometriosis, for example, can **w remove diseased tissue on the fallopian tubes without fear of damaging these delicate structures. This can improve the likelihood of More effective treatment, potentially Reducing the need for repeat procedures.
J-Plasma works by passing helium, an inert gas, over a uniquely designed energized blade and ionizing the gas into a cool stream of plasma. This plasma stream can cut, coagulate and ablate (vaporize) tissue at much cooler temperatures than traditional CO2 lasers.
