Hi There Thank you for your question.Fractional lasers or any aesthetic laser will not be able to affect the thyroid in any way whatsoever.There is absolutely no suggestion of any effect below the dermis.Please don't be concerned.Kind Regards Dr Dinesh Maini
Fractional lasers all emit infra-red light which is not linked to cancer formation. The wavelengths linked with causing cancer include ultra-violet and x-rays. There is no reason to suggest that fractional laser treatment with either the CO2 or Erbium-YAG lasers play any role in the development of thyroid cancer.
