Fremont, CA (PRWEB) April 02, 2015

Lutronic, a leading innovator of aesthetic and medical technology, announced today that it expands its portfolio of innovative medical solutions in Europe with ACTION II Petit Lady ™ at the 13th Anti-Aging Medicine World Congress (AMWC) in Monte-Carlo, Monaco, from March 26-28, 2015. ACTION II is a device that provides a new dimension in Er:YAG laser technology applied for both gynecological and aesthetic indications. It received CE mark clearance for treatment of vaginal relaxation syndrome (VRS) and stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in June 2014, which expands its clinical applications and builds on the success of the original ACTION II device which primarily focused on aesthetic treatments.

“I have seen that ACTION II Petit Lady increases the elasticity of the vaginal wall with a significantly short downtime. Patients suffering from vaginal relaxation syndrome are very satisfied with Petit Lady because this 15-minute non-surgical treatment successfully rejuvenates the vagina and enhances sexual gratification,” said Dr Fabio Marini, a surgeon at the Skin Laser Clinic, in Italy. Dr Marini was presenting on the Petit Lady system at a special dinner Symposium during the AMWC, ‘Symposia L’, hosted by Lutronic. Dr Marini also presented his one year clinical study on ACTION II Petit Lady for vaginal atrophy and vaginal relaxation syndrome, which showed significant improvements in both sets of patients.

The well-attended symposium, which was moderated by Dr R Glen Calderhead, VP Medicoscientific Affairs for Lutronic, also featured Dr. Matteo Tretti Clementoni, a plastic surgeon at Skin House in Italy Dr Clementoni, a world-renowned physician, shared his knowledge of the INFINI™ for treating neck and low face laxity with its High Intensity Focused RF. “The device is very easy to use, and it is possible to perform full face and neck treatment in less than 15 minutes. With varying energy, pulse duration, depth of needles penetration and number of passages, it is possible to customize the treatment for the specific skin needs of each patient on an individual basis. Finally, we have a device/treatment that really allows us to obtain good results on the lower 1/3 of the face and the neck,” he added. Another presenter of INFINI, Dr Harryono Judodihardjo, a dermatologist from the Cellite Clinic, UK also shared his clinical experiences with the title, ‘How to Smooth Out Accordion Lines (Smile Lines).’

Another star speaker was Dr Christine Dierickx, a world-wide respected dermatologist from Skinperium, Belgium, who presented on the Q-switched Nd:YAG-based multiplatform, SPECTRA XT™, which is the latest edition of the cutting-edge SPECTRA family of lasers, already best-known and appreciated for its versatility and reliability.

The symposium was a great success, judging from the many favorable comments from the attendees who were most impressed by the practical and solid nature of the presentations and the range of topics covered by the well-appreciated presenters. This symposium built on the success of the similar event at last year’s AMWC, and many of those present stated that they would definitely be looking to attend again next year, hoping that it will become a tradition to be established by Lutronic at subsequent AMWC meetings.

Aylabeauty.com Introduces New Natural Anti-Aging Skincare Product from 37 Extreme Actives

Thursday, November 6th, 2014


San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 03, 2014

Ayla (aylabeauty.com), an online natural skinare boutique and San Francisco-based micro-shop, is introducing a new anti-aging treatment to its portfolio of natural skincare products: 37 Extreme Actives Neck and Décolletage High-Performance Anti-Aging Treatment. Formulated by Dr. Macrene Alexiades-Armenakas, New York-based dermatologist, this product is an advanced all-in-one cream that delivers the largest number of actives in one single lotion treatment.

“We are very excited to introduce this new product to our 37 Extreme Actives fans and customers who are looking to expand their natural anti-aging skincare regimen,” stated Dara Kennedy, founder of Ayla. “This state-of-the-art treatment is one of the most powerful, effective anti-aging skincare products that we have come across. It combines non-toxic but potent anti-aging ingredients to produce truly visible results without causing any irritation or breakouts, and it is an ideal replacement for in-office dermatological procedures.”

The neck and décolletage tend to be the most neglected areas in skincare and are typically left out of daily regimens. However, the skin below the jawline is thin, and without extra care, it can age at a much faster rate than the face. These two areas of skin are where one could see signs of aging first, including sun damage, wrinkles, and loose skin. The Neck and Décolletage High-Performance Anti-Aging Treatment features a range of new and important actives to target elasticity and reverse sun damage—issues that are particularly common to the delicate areas of the neck and chest.

“There are a number of in-office procedures available to target aging of the neck and décolletage,” explains Dr. Macrene. “Research has shown that applying a host of anti-aging ingredients topically, twice daily and year-round, can outperform these in-office treatments.”

The Neck and Décolletage High-Performance Anti-Aging Treatment includes new vital ingredients to target elasticity, reduce the appearance of sun damage, and reverse the cosmetic damage caused by sugar and environmental pollutants. A few of the new ingredients include plant-derived DNA repair actives tyrosine, proline, and ATP, that have been shown to decrease UV-induced mutations to the skin by 66%; red algae extract to address the aging effects of telomerase; and palmitoyl hydroxyproline to improve elasticity.
