Description
Cynosure manufactures and distributes lasers and light sources for medical and aesthetic use. Their lasers are used for laser hair removal, non-ablative skin treatment, laser removal of veins, birthmarks, scars, stretch marks, redness and pigmented lesions. Their lasers also treat diseases such as psoriasis, laryngeal papillomas and dysplasia.
Products / Services
Since the beginning of 2004, Cynosure has introduced 10 new aesthetic treatment systems, including its four flagship products: the Apogee Elite system (for hair removal, in March 2004), the Cynergy system (the treatment of vascular lesions, in February 2005), the PhotoSilk Plus system (for skin rejuvenation through the treatment of shallow vascular lesions and pigmented lesions, in February 2005) and the TriActive LaserDermology system (for the temporary reduction of the appearance of cellulite, in February 2004).
Technology / Differentiation
The Cynergy workstation with MultiPlex technology is the first system to enable the rapid sequential emission of two wavelengths from the same fiber optic -- a pulse-dye laser and an Nd:YAG laser -- with a short time delay between the two pulses. The time delay increases safety and efficacy of laser treatment.
