New Pulsed-Light and Laser System

Posted on 24 Feb 2004
A next-generation pulsed-light and laser system includes a special handpiece to treat vascular lesions, including leg veins. More...


Called StarLux, the system is computer-controlled for easy operation and provides physicians with an adjustable smooth pulse energy output and integrated contact cooling at the sapphire tip for added safety and patient comfort. Optimum spectrum selection plus higher power and fast repetition rate have been incorporated into this ultra-compact pulsed light design to match the performance of a much higher-priced, single application laser technology. StarLux is the product of Palomar Medical Technologies, Inc. (Burlington, MA, USA; www.palomarmedical.com).

Similar to the company's MediLux, EsteLux, and NeoLux systems, the StarLux has many versatile handpieces that can be used for the removal of hair, treatment of acne, and for photofacial applications to treat pigmented and vascular lesions to improve skin tone and texture.

"The Lux platform enables us to custom tailor our products to fit almost any professional medical office or spa location,” said Joseph P. Caruso, chief executive officer of Palomar. "These systems offer a suite of applications at a fraction of the cost of other competing systems.”
