Highest power, most customizable, dual wavelength system yields best value on the market
PALO ALTO, Calif— Sciton, a manufacturer of high-quality laser and light systems in the aesthetic medical market, has announced the introduction of ProLipo PLUS™, an FDA-cleared, minimally invasive, ultra high-powered laser system for ablating and melting unwanted fat, resulting in collagen remodeling and tissue tightening. The innovative ProLipo PLUS combines 1064 nm and 1319 nm wavelengths in one laser for optimal body=2 0sculpting results. Frequently used as an adjunct to traditional liposuction, it can also be utilized as a standalone procedure for patients who are not candidates for traditional liposuction.
“Because ProLipo PLUS is faster and more powerful than other laser-assisted lipolysis systems,” said Marc Salzman, MD, a plastic surgeon practicing in Louisville, Ky., “the procedure takes much less time. It also has the broadest range of customizable treatment parameters. That’s a major benefit for the patient and the physician.” With 30 watts of power at 1064 nm and 20 watts at 1319 nm, ProLipo PLUS is the most powerful laser-assisted lipolysis system available.
Sciton’s ProLipo PLUS offers physicians a new level of flexibility – its dual wavelength capability means that physicians can choose to use each of the wavelengths alone or combine the benefits of both wavelengths. This new technology provides a way to remove fat and tighten tissue thereby diminishing loose skin associated with liposuction. The 1319 nm wavelength is readily absorbed by water in the tissue immediately surrounding the tip. The 1064 nm wavelength is absorbed over a broader region of tissue, heating the treated area more effectively.
“My patients are delighted with ProLipo,” said Dr. Salzman. “ProLipo PLUS combines high power 1064 nm and 1319 nm wavelengths allowing me to remove fat and tighten tissue quickly and easily with one system. Doing so gives the highest patient satisfaction I’ve seen with any laser. I also like that there are no expensive consumable fibers.”
Sciton’s ProLipo non-proprietary fiber delivery system protects physicians from unacceptably high per-case disposable costs. “We developed the ProLipo PLUS system to meet the increasing demand for a minimally invasive body sculpting laser treatment that can be safely and comfortably done with local anesthesia,” said Robert Ruck, Vice President of World Wide Marketing at Sciton. “Furthermore, our system is a safe investment because of its modular, fully upgradeable platform and use of open-source fibers.”ProLipo PLUS is an excellent choice where superficial fat removal and body contouring are the goals. Ideal outcomes are often difficult to achieve in areas such as the chin, neck, abdomen, and arms with traditional liposuction. The advanced ProLipo PLUS technology enables physicians to overcome the limitations often found with contouring these body regions and allows them to consistently deliver superior results. Not only does ProLipo PLUS effectively contour and tighten the skin through tissue coagulation and collagen remodeling, it can also be used on patients who d o not consider themselves candidates for traditional liposuction. A number of patients do not want general anesthesia or they only have small trouble spots they want to improve through a short, minimally invasive procedure in the physician’s office.
ProLipo PLUS can also be utilized in conjunction with traditional liposuction to achieve a smoother, tighter body after the procedure. The following array of body treatment areas can effectively be contoured and tightened using ProLipo PLUS: chin, cheek and jowls; under-chin and neck; back of neck; upper arms; upper back; upper and lower abdomen; flanks and sides; hips and waist; inner and outer thighs; buttocks; knees, and male chest.Readers interested in learning more about Sciton’s new ProLipo PLUS should visit www.ProLipoPlus.com.
