Lumenis Ltd. has launched SPLENDOR X, the first solid state laser system equipped with the unique BLEND X technology for fast and effective hair removal and skin solutions. The technology was showcased for the first time at the 2018 American Society of Dermatological Surgery (ASDS) in Phoenix this month.
SPLENDOR X is suitable for a wide range of hair removal procedures. BLEND X permits bilateral laser emission of Nd: YAG (1064nm) and Alexandrite (755nm) wavelengths, synchronized to fire with adjustable proportions. At 250W output power, SPLENDOR X provides rapid coverage rate combining high fluency, large spot size and high repetition rate. The unique square spot shape eliminates overlap and hot spots, guaranteeing uniform skin coverage, Lumenis says. Furthermore, a built-in plume evacuator ensures a smoke free and safer environment.
“The SPLENDOR X technology not only allows the use of the laser on all other skin tones, but due to its unique BLEND X technology, I’m able to create customized treatment options for patients of all skin types and hair types” said Suzanne L. Kilmer, MD of Laser and Skin Surgery Center in Northern California. “The two adjustable wavelengths, Nd: YAG and Alexandrite allow me to use the machine to fit treatment requirements to each individual.”
In Lumenis’ Hot Topic Symposium at ASDS, Mary Lupo, MD introduced the SPLENDOR X in a lecture titled The Splendor of Hair Removal with New Synchronized Emissions & Square Spot + Body. She addressed the device’s innovations, such as its ability to provide deeper penetration giving uniform coverage of the treatment area quickly and safely on all skin types including tanned and darker skin tones all year round, Lumenis says.
The SPLENDOR X the next generation in hair removal and truly expands our offering in this category,” said Tzipi Ozer-Armon, CEO of Lumenis. “As with all our products, and this one specifically, we look not only to build technology, but also to create, design and inspire confidence for our customers.“
