ORANGEBURG, N.Y., Nov. 13 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Radiancy Inc. announced
the international launch of Mistral, a light-based, multi-applications
platform device for hair removal, skin photo rejuvenation, acne clearance and
psoriasis care at Medica Dusseldorf and CosmoProf Asia, 2006.
Mistral, using proprietary Light Heat Energy(TM) (LHE) technology, is one
of today’s fastest and safest light-based devices available. "LHE is a
fascinating technology," said Dr. Dolev Rafaeli PhD, CEO of Radiancy, "By
incorporating advances like OP2 and a computer-based upgradeable smart
system, we take that technology to the next level."
Mistral introduces OP2 (Optimized Pulse Protocol(TM)) .OP2 creates a
protected environment for the safe delivery of energy. Within milliseconds, a
train of pulses, optimized to application, skin type and treatment
parameters, are emitted. There is a slight pause between pulses, allowing
skin to cool while the targeted chromophores retain and accumulate energy.
This produces optimal results while the integrity of the skin remains
protected.
Mistral’s handpieces, with significantly extended lamp life, have large
12 cm squared spot sizes and snap-on adaptors to treat smaller areas. And
when the optional Extra-Large spot size of 18 cm squared for hair removal
combines with a 2-4 second pulse rate, Mistral becomes the fastest mode of
treatment in the industry.
Recognizing that not all skin types are alike, there are 2 handpieces
available for specialized treatment of skin types V-VI (Fitzpatrick
scale). "For some skin types, photo therapy can be harmful," commented Dr.
Paul Sofer MD, head of Radiancy’s clinical department. "The Sensitive Care
handpieces for skin photo rejuvenation and hair removal allow greater
flexibility in choosing energy levels and enable the professional to create a
safe and effective treatment solution."
Mistral integrates a custom-programmed Windows CE-based platform to
streamline operation and maintenance. Multilingual capabilities,
preprogrammed protocols and intuitive user interface simplify operation and
facilitate altering between applications and treatment options. Mistral, with
internet capabilities, is easily upgraded, insuring it remains compatible
with all future advancements, such as the onboard patient database already
under development.
Radiancy Inc. develops and manufactures safe and effective laser and LHE
phototherapy devices for Skin-Resurfacing, Hair-Removal, Acne-Clearance, Skin-
Rejuvenation, Tattoo and Pigmented Lesion Removal and Psoriasis Care.
