The problem is J/cm2 is a bad way to record dose. You would get more than 30J/cm2 after a brief period of sunbathing on a hot sunny day. The risk of denaturing depends on power density (irradiance) W/cm2 not energy. I have not looked it up but if I had to guess I would say power densities in excess of say 10W/cm2 would cause denaturing. Maybe that is what you meant to write. no, not true.

Is this true??? Class IV therapy laser protocals all indicate > 30 joules/CM2. Is this not a clear reason not to use high powers???
