No Pain, More Gain - Restore Skin's Youthful Look with Latest Photopneumatic Therapy

The Sloane Clinic offers the worlds first painless light-based therapy for faster, safer treatment of pigmentations, broken capillaries and unsightly veins.

(PRWEB) July 22, 2005 -- The Sloane Clinic introduces Photopneumatic Therapy(TM) in August 2005, the first of its kind in Singapore. Apart from its space-age design, this patented technology is a breakthrough combination of the unique properties of pneumatic energy and broadband light -- delivering photons to treatment targets up to five times more efficiently than traditional light-based devices. Great looking skin in less than 15 minutes is now no longer a fantasy.

This new aesthetic system can help with hair removal, skin rejuvenation and the treatment of vascular and pigmented lesions. By reducing the light energy required for these applications to a fraction of the photons delivered by previous devices, Aesthera Photopneumatic therapy is painless, up to five times safer and delivers amazing unparalled results! No downtime truly means this is a lunchtime procedure for the busy executive. Now ladies are able to just whiz into their doctors office and walk out less than 30 minutes later with a more rejuvenated, luminous skin as well as hairless legs if they so wish.

"Photopneumatic Therapy is truly revolutionary in its approach to light treatments. It is backed by solid science and presents great potential for the development of an innovative next generation of safe and effective skin treatments," said Dr Kenneth Lee, physician and medical director of The Sloane Clinic in Singapore.

Photopneumatic Therapy uses a proprietary pneumatic sequence prior to applying light, temporarily thinning the treatment area to increase photon efficiency. What this means for the layman like us is that the machine sucks up the skin using a special suction like cup before bombarding it with all the good photons needed to make us younger and prettier. Aesthera Photopneumatic Therapy is four to seven times faster than traditional laser and light-based (IPL) treatments, making it an attractive alternative for busy physicians and their time-conscious patients. For example, full leg or whole back treatments can be performed in less than 20 minutes. (Traditional hair removal lasers would take up to an hour.) And the results are better too.

"PPx elevates the dermal and epidermal targets, and reduces both blood and melanin concentration, to ensure that four to five times more energy is absorbed directly by the target, as compared to previous generations of aesthetic systems," said Dr Kenneth, "The Aesthera Photopneumatic Therapy system eliminates the conventional pain-causing, safety-compromising use of very high energies," he added.

"With traditional lasers and light-based systems, there is a very fine line between effectiveness and collateral damage, Photopneumatic Therapy dramatically increases photon absorption, reducing the overall energy required and significantly widening the otherwise very narrow safety margins," he said.

In fact, doctors using the technology found that patient comfort was so favorable that the treatments no longer required the traditional extensive pre-treatment with topical numbing and cooling agents.

The heart of the multi-application Aesthera PPx system is the treatment-specific, microchip-driven IntelliTip(TM). Individually designed for different body parts and featuring pre-programmed parameters for hair removal, skin rejuvenation or the treatment of vascular and pigmented lesions, the IntelliTip is an intelligent consumable that reduces the possibility of operator error.

If all this science is too much for you to absorb, just know that with Aesthera Photopneumatic Therapy, we are looking at great looking skin without the pain and all this in less than 30 minutes! This is the next generation in IPL technology by slashing patients downtime,pain factor, treatment time and boosting results to a all time high. So if you are thinking of parking your dollar on an IPL treatment, you are better off with Aesthera Photopneumatic Therapy.
