The Future of Dermatological and Cosmetic Treatments

Lasers, once the domain of advanced science (as well as science fiction, of course), have slowly become more accessible to the general public. As a result, more and more applications of lasers are being discovered every day.

The word “laser” is actually an acronym that stands for “light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.” In layman’s terms, a laser works by strengthening (amplifying) a beam of light to a point where it could alter substances by burning or cutting.

The first working laser was created in 1960. Aside from its obvious uses in areas of military and defense, lasers have been used in a diverse range of commercial applications, such as optical media and storage using compact discs, fiber optic communications, and document printers. The use of lasers has also grown in the field of medicine and therapeutics. Recently, lasers found new use in the area of cosmetics and aesthetics. So you think finding a laser in the neighborhood beauty salon is far-fetched? In a few years you’d have another think coming.

Enter Cynosure Aesthetic Lasers (http://www.cynosure.com). As the name suggests, an aesthetic laser is used to improve one’s physical looks. Cynosure Aesthetic Lasers are designed to provide safe and fast-healing treatments that are non-invasive at price points that were once only accessible to the rich and famous.

Cynosure offers laser products for the following applications: cellulite reduction, permanent or long-term hair removal, body sculpting, anti-aging, vascular lesions, and skin pigmentation treatment.

For hair removal, Cynosure offers the Elite aesthetic workstation. It is one of the most thorough hair removal system available on the market today. The Elite is optimized for all skin types so a broad range of clients can be accommodated. Additionally, the Elite can also be used to treat face and leg veins and pigmented skin lesions.

For anti-aging, the Affirm workstation offers scar treatment, wrinkle reduction, pigmentation treatment, age spot treatment, facial rejuvenation, and coagulation of skin tissue.

For laser body sculpting, Cynosure brings the Smartlipo workstation. These improve on traditional liposuction treatments by being less invasive. The Smartlipo workstation is also the only laser lipolysis system available on the market today.

For cellulite removal, the TriActive Cellulite workstation is Cynosure’s industry standard and the only over-the-counter laser cleared for cellulite treatment and reduction. The TriActive workstation more effectively tones and contours cellulite problem spots that just don’t seem to go away.

Finally, for vascular and pigmentation treatments, Cynosure offers the Cynergy vascular workstation. Due to its multi-wavelength design, the Cynergy treats all types of vascular and pigmented lesions more effectively.

The new age of aesthetic and cosmetic treatments is fast approaching and Cynosure is at the forefront. Now, innovative laser products are quickly bringing affordable, safe, and effective laser treatments for a variety of nagging problems to the masses.
