Lutronic Announces Strong Year in 2020 & Appoints Dr. Omar Ibrahimi of Connecticut as its Medical Director

BILLERICA, Mass., March 8, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Lutronic, a leading developer of energy-based medical devices, announces a strong 2020 U.S. performance. The Company has had a double-digit growth year-over-year despite the challenge of the world-wide COVID-19 pandemic. Lutronic's success was supported by implementing a company-wide COVID-19 safety protocol for its employees that allowed it to operate in this challenging environment and provide uncompromised support for its customers.

Lutronic Introduces Hollywood Spectra™

Central to the Company's 2020 success was the introduction of Lutronic Hollywood Spectra, an advancement in Spectra's technology and design, the Company's existing leading laser platform (over 8000 installs) for the reduction of unwanted pigmentation and the restoration of glowing skin.

Unique to Hollywood Spectra™, and unmatched by others, are the HyperSurge™ Resonator and IntelliBeam™ technologies that combine to enhance energy consistency across the entire beam, and create higher peak spatial intensity in the skin, resulting in a collagen-boosting vibration effect. This skin undulation effect and benefit is unique to Hollywood Spectra™ and has not been replicated by other nanosecond and picosecond laser devices. The innovative PTP+™ mode provides more effective multi-pulse techniques for 1064nm energy delivery to patients with sensitive skin conditions, reducing the risk of pigmentation side effects caused by older short pulse devices. Additional design features create a comfortable, seamless experience for both practitioners and patients.
