APC

By ERBE:

APC is a non-contact procedure with minimal vaporisation and carbonisation, which offers good wound healing. The risk of the probe tip sticking to tissue with subsequent tearing of the coagulated vessels is distinctly reduced. APC is easier to handle compared to laser procedures and does not require extensive safety measures. Economically APC is also superior to laser procedures.
