Cutera

Cutera has announced the full rollout of AviClear in the UK and Ireland. This highly anticipated device has been touted as an alternative to acne medication and is the first FDA-cleared energy device for all severities of acne. AviClear uses the power of a 1726 nanometre laser to selectively target and suppress sebaceous glands, to eliminate acne at its source. A session of the laser treatment takes 30 minutes and doesn’t require anaesthetic, as the device itself is equipped with skin cooling technology to minimise discomfort. Three treatments spaced a month apart see 80% of people cleared of acne for two years after treatment.

Déesse Pro

The Sculpta is the newest release from Déesse Pro. The device uses low-level light therapy to evoke responses within the dermis.

Electric muscle stimulation and radiofrequency tone the facial muscles and stimulate collagen to promote skin health.

Sculpta works to restore and maintain optimal cell function, boost circulation and lymphatic drainage, and visibly improve the signs of skin ageing.
