Lutronic launches new laser device for skin rejuvenation

Korea-based Lutronic has introduced a new laser device LaseMD for skin rejuvenation.

Featured at American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) in San Diego, the 1,927nm Thulium laser is designed to provide customised skin resurfacing to patients of all ages and skin-type, through fractionated treatments with minimal downtime.

The laser creates micro-channels with minimal disruption to the outermost layer of the skin, stratum cornium, and leaves the tissues untouched for better permeability and faster healing.

Maryland Dermatology Laser Skin and Vein Institute director Dr Robert Weiss said: “While I have been using the 1927 wavelength for years, the LaseMD is unique.

“The simplicity and ease-of-use combined with the complete control over degree of treatment from mild to aggressive, makes LaseMD the thulium laser of choice from now on.”

With treatment settings ranging from gentle to aggressive, the device treats Actinic keratosis, benign pigmented lesions and other skin conditions.

Dermatology Laser and Vein Specialists of North Carolina director Dr Gilly Munavalli said: “The LaseMD fits wonderfully within my practice and strikes a good balance between downtime and results. It truly is skin brightening.”

Ensuring greater control over outcomes, the treatment is further supplemented with a collection of specially formulated ampoules, masks and cream.

Featuring vitamin C, vitamin A, resveratrol and tranexamic acid, the ampoules are intended to complement the patients’ in-office treatment.

According to the company, the fusion of ampoule and mask supplements provides a complete ‘LaseMD Experience’ to patients.

Headquartered in the US, Lutronic has a centre in Korea, offices in Germany, China, and Japan, with a global network of distributors.
