Alma Lasers Introduces Pixel(R) CO2 Skin Resurfacing System

BUFFALO GROVE, Ill., Sept. 15 /PRNewswire/ -- Alma Lasers Ltd.(R), a leader in laser, light, and radiofrequency-based aesthetic devices, announced today the FDA 510(k) clearance and launch of the Pixel(R) CO2, Alma Lasers'(R) newest fractional, ablative CO2 solution. This new system represents the best of both worlds for skin resurfacing, as it combines the proven effectiveness of an ablative approach with the patient comfort level and convenience of a non-ablative solution. The Pixel(R) CO2 system and recently approved Pixel(R) CO2 OMNIFIT handpiece have been designed to equip physicians with the company's unique Pixel Perfect(TM) treatment, the newest break-through in laser skin resurfacing.

Pixel Perfect(TM), exclusively performed by Alma Lasers'(R) Pixel(R) laser systems, visually eliminates years from the face by replacing photo-damaged skin with healthy, fresh skin and stimulating new collagen growth for an even healthier appearance. Pixel Perfect(TM) improves texture and tone to reduce and diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and even acne scars. It works by creating thousands of microscopic perforations while leaving the skin intact, allowing the skin's top layer to heal rapidly and significantly improving the complexion. Not only is healing time shortened considerably -- the Pixel(R) CO2 takes ablative patient downtime from 30 days to approximately three -- but Pixel Perfect(TM) also comes with a lower risk of complications as compared to traditional laser skin resurfacing. Any area of the skin that has surface irregularities can be treated, including the neck, chest, thighs, hands and arms.

"We are thrilled to serve as a partner for our current and future network of physicians, helping them enhance their practices with superior skin resurfacing treatments," says Howard Kelly, CEO of Alma Lasers(R). "We strive to provide an unparalleled array of low-cost solutions for anyone currently offering or looking to build innovative skin rejuvenation treatments into their practice."

For a limited time only, Alma Lasers(R) will be offering the Pixel(R) CO2 system to physicians for a reduced price. For more information about this discount or to find a distributor near you, please visit www.almalasers.com.
