Description |
| Cutera develops, manufactures and markets various products for use in laser and other light-based aesthetic applications.
|
 |
| Products / Services |
The company's products are used for hair removal and reduction, for the treatment of vascular lesions, including leg and facial veins, and for skin rejuventation, including treatment of wrinkles and benign pigmented lesions. Cutera's product platforms include CoolGlide, Xeo and Solera. The company's Titan solutions, available on all three platforms, are used for dermal heating. The new Titan V and Titan XL offerings, launched in February 2006, give physicians an unobstructed view of the skin's surface, allowing for faster treatments and improved ability to treat sensitive areas, such as around the eyes and nose.
|
 |
| Technology / Differentiation |
| Cutera's CoolGlide, Xeo and Solera product platforms are upgradeable and have a broad range of applications. Customers are able to select the system that best fits their practice at the time of purchase and then cost-effectively add applications as their practice grows.
|
 |
| Market / Customers |
Cutera's products are used by dermatologists, plastic surgeons, gynecologists, and primary care physicians. The worldwide market for laser and other light-based aesthetics systems is estimated at about $800 million annually. Cutera has a direct sales presence in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. The company has a distributor relationship in the U.S. with PSS World Medical.
