A laser developed at the University of Michigan is designed to melt fat without burning surrounding tissue. It could potentially be used to treat acne, researchers say.<\/p>\n

Its 1,708-nm, infrared beam takes advantage of a unique wavelength that fat can absorb more efficiently than water, which makes up more than half of the human body. It can penetrate skin with minimal harm on its way to reach and destroy deeper pockets of fat, says Mohammed Islam, a professor of electrical engineering and internal medicine. The research is described in a paper published in *Lasers in Surgery and Medicine*.<\/p>

The laser could treat acne by targeting the oil-producing sebaceous glands, which are known to be involved in the development of the skin disease.<\/p>\n
