Intelligent Control acts as the system’s “brain”, adeptly processing 3D spatial data for precise, automated pulse delivery. This innovation, alongside the new autodynamic pulsing feature, adapts to the operator’s speed, dramatically reducing full-body treatment times while ensuring uniform results across treatments.

Emphasizing patient safety, the technology simplifies the training process for new or less experienced technicians without compromising patient outcomes. BBL HEROic promises transformative results, delivering healthy, clear, and revitalized skin after just a single session. Kathy Ziegler, Director of Product Management at Sciton, shared her enthusiasm: “BBL HEROic is set to redefine the pulsed-light industry. By integrating Intelligent Control with our BBL® HERO™ technology, we’ve responded to the demand for a light-based treatment that is not only faster and more efficient but also accessible to staff across all skill levels, promising remarkable results.”

Leveraging advanced machine intelligence, BBL HEROic tracks the treatment handpiece in six degrees of freedom for real-time, multi-dimensional positioning, ensuring precise pulse placement on both flat and contoured body areas.

Available on both the JOULE®X and mJOULE™ platforms, BBL HEROic seamlessly integrates into aesthetic practices of any size, boosting patient demand and increasing revenue. Sciton will host six regional seminars across the country, offering providers an in-depth look at BBL HEROic, complete with hands-on demonstrations.

“ALLURA Neck is all about rapid contour results with a single, office-based treatment”, says Marc Salzman MD, a Plastic Surgeon in Louisville, KY. “It fits perfectly into my practice, next to non-invasive modalities like Coolsculpting Mini and Kybella. These procedures have the limitations of taking several months and sessions to attain modest results. With ALLURA Neck, the outcomes are profound within two weeks, 100% of the time. In addition, it is a high ROI procedure.”

“We’ve found that ALLURA captures an attractive, distinct patient profile,” remarks Aaron Burton, Chief Operating Officer of Sciton. “Many patients want fast visible results in a one-and-done treatment. To provide this option, our customers have urged us to revitalize a proven procedure with new simplified features, protocols and branding. We’ve done that with ALLURA and believe it’s a great addition to our Joule platform.”

“I leverage my patient base and they love that I have alternatives for them,” states Jared Mallalieu DO, a Cosmetic Surgeon in Severna Park, MD. “In consultations, and also for new patients, they often have wrong assumptions and incomplete understanding. Many opt for ALLURA when they got the whole picture with all major Pros & Cons, including results vs. time and cost.”

ALLURA Neck can easily be added to the Sciton JOULE platform, making it very affordable. The JOULE platform is the world’s only expandable platform to offer an unprecedented array of laser and light wavelengths through any of its distinct delivery modes: arm, fiber and BroadBand Light.

HALO delivers both ablative and non-ablative wavelengths to the same microscopic treatment zone: 1470 nm for coagulation and 2940 nm for ablation. The 1470 nm wavelength is used for delivering between 100 and 700 microns of coagulation to the epidermis and dermis, where solar damage exists. The 2940 nm wavelength is used to deliver from 0 to 100 microns of ablation to the epidermis of the skin. This gives HALO the unique ability to provide separate treatments for the epidermis, which heals quickly, and dermis which remodels more slowly over time. The operator may choose one of three coverage-based treatment levels, and HALO calculates the exact amount of energy necessary to complete a safe and effective treatment. Intelligent energy delivery, combined with Dynamic Thermal Optimization, ensures precise and even treatments, each and every time. The benefits of a HALO treatment include both epidermal and deeper dermal pigmentation and tone and texture in the skin.

HALO is available on the JOULE™ platform, which offers multiple modules to treat a wide range of indications.

“At Sciton, we remain committed to providing medical professionals and their patients with the safest, most effective, and comfortable cosmetic solutions,” says Dan Negus, Ph.D., President of Sciton. “Our new hair removal technology boasts the highest power of any light device in this class on the market. Forever Bare BBL is capable of rapidly treating large areas quickly and precisely while dramatically improving clinical safety margins for hair removal.”

While other hair removal treatments apply energy to a given spot all at once, Forever Bare BBL treats with continuous movement and multiple lower fluence pulses at a high repetition rate. This advanced method evenly heats follicles to the precise temperature for fast and easy hair removal, greatly minimizing the likelihood of missed areas that occur with traditional hair removal devices. A thermoelectrically-cooled sapphire crystal on the handpiece provides continuous skin cooling before, during, and after the treatment for added comfort. Forever Bare BBL’s multi-burst and cooling methods have been proven to work safely and effectively on more skin types than ever before, including darker skin (up to type V).

Forever Bare BBL utilizes Sciton’s industry-leading BroadBand Light (BBL™) technology. BBL offers a comprehensive range of aesthetic procedures and non-invasive treatments. Its flexible Finesse Adapters enable treatment of hard-to-reach areas, producing long-lasting results on uniformly treated skin.

Forever Bare BBL is available on Sciton’s JOULE platform and BBLs. Both offer multiple modules to treat many other indications.

The CelluSmooth procedure is a fast, effective, and safe treatment utilizing a proprietary M3 technology that allows the delivery of the 1319 nm laser wavelength in three distinct modes. CelluSmooth’s M3 technology enables physicians to treat the causes of lumpy and dimpled skin on the thighs, buttocks, stomach, and other areas of the body in a very short procedure time. “CelluSmooth produces long-lasting results that are equivalent to or better than other minimally invasive procedures on the market in one-half or one-third of the time,” says Dr. Marc J. Salzman, a board-certified plastic surgeon and founder of Salzman Institute of Cosmetic Surgery in Louisville, Kentucky. “This procedure results in a smoother appearance in troublesome areas such as the thighs and buttocks with minimal bruising and discomfort to our patients. We have very high patient satisfaction with this treatment.”

“Developed in conjunction with a panel of remarkable plastic surgeons and cosmetic physicians, CelluSmooth is the newest innovation in Sciton’s long line of laser technologies and represents a significant breakthrough in body contouring,” stated Dan Negus, Ph.D., President of Sciton. “It represents yet another step in our long commitment to our customers and their patients to continuously improve and introduce clinically safe and effective devices with no technically unnecessary consumables,” continued Dr. Negus.

CelluSmooth is available on the JOULE platform which offers multiple modules to treat many other indications, such as acne, permanent hair reduction, pigmented lesions, scar revision, skin texture improvement, and vascular lesions. This, combined with Sciton’s “no consumables” commitment, means physicians enjoy a maximum return on investment.

The SkinTyte II speeds up and optimizes the popular SkinTyte procedure by utilizing visible and infrared light energy tailored for skin types I-VI. It can be used on many parts of the body and popular areas include the cheeks, chin, jawlines, neck, abdomen, and arms. “SkinTyte II produces results that are as good or better than the original SkinTyte procedure, but in one-half or one-third of the time,” says Dr. Patrick Bitter, Jr., a board-certified dermatologist and founder of Advanced Aesthetic Dermatology in Los Gatos, California. “A tissue firming procedure on a larger zone like the abdomen can take 30 minutes to an hour with other technologies. We can now get high-quality results in 15 to 20 minutes with SkinTyte II.”

“Developed in conjunction with a panel of distinguished dermatologists and cosmetic physicians, SkinTyte II is the latest advancement with our SkinTyte product,” stated Dan Negus, Ph.D., President of Sciton. “It represents Sciton’s commitment to our customers, their patients, and our employees to continuously improve and regularly bring to market safe, clinically effective devices with no consumables,” continued Dr. Negus.

SkinTyte II is available on the JOULE and BBLs expandable platforms.

OptiPlexing Wavelengths and Delivery Modes for Expanded Procedure Options: With JOULE, Sciton offers the optimal combination of multiple laser wavelengths delivered through any of JOULE’s three delivery modes—arm, fiber, or broadband light (BBL)—enabling aesthetic physicians to offer the widest variety of procedures available. A single platform can provide today’s most requested procedures, laser-assisted lipolysis and deep and fractional skin resurfacing, as well as hair removal and a wide range of vascular treatments. Sciton’s scientists call this technology OptiPlex™: the optimal multiplexing of optical technologies.

“The optiplexed JOULE has the potential to change the entire landscape of an aesthetic practice,” says Dr. Jason Pozner, plastic surgeon and medical director of Sanctuary Plastic Surgery and co-owner of Sanctuary Medical Aesthetic Center in Florida. “Combining laser lipolysis and both fractional and full skin resurfacing in a single platform makes it possible for me to offer the most popular treatments more conveniently. The benefit to a growing aesthetic practice is significant. They can expand their practice with a single laser. It is an ideal system for aesthetic surgeons with an on-site operating facility as well as those with an office treatment room. It would take multiple lasers to do what JOULE does. It’s a game-changer.”

Procedure-Specific and Practice-Expanding Treatment Modules: JOULE offers unprecedented versatility with its comprehensive selection of modules and the ability to add future Sciton modules for cosmetic procedures. In addition to any combination of three delivery modes, the base laser system has four laser bays as well as a pulsed light bay. A practice can begin with one module, and grow into many as the practice grows, or, it can be fully built out from the very beginning to enable the widest range of treatment capabilities for expansive revenue opportunity for the aesthetic practice. The platform is “future-proof” as modules yet to be invented will be designed to be fully functional on the JOULE Aesthetic Laser Platform.

“The optiplexed JOULE platform offers great economics in two important ways,” states Lars Isaacson, Vice President of Sales at Sciton. “You can pick the most profitable procedures for your practice today, adding modules for new capabilities in the future at a far lower cost. And here’s an even more immediate economic boost: contrary to industry trends, there are no hidden disposable costs, which can be $400 per tip, or charges for handpieces that automatically disable themselves after a limited number of pulses.”

Highest Value, Lowest-Per-Procedure Cost: In addition to cost-optimization through more capability in a single aesthetic platform, Sciton physicians achieve the lowest-per-procedure cost because Sciton does not charge for disposables, nor does it place an unnecessary “marketing” limitation on the use of disposables. Sciton enables physicians to use open source fibers on its lasers, providing a competitive cost advantage to its customers. All Sciton systems offer unlimited pulses within a 3-year warranty or during service contracts, a standard unmatched in the industry.

“With this challenging economy, physicians benefit from a combined fractional resurfacing and laser lipolyisis platform that affords both cost efficiency and the cutting edge technology that our patients seek,” commented Dr. Michael Kaminer, a dermatologic surgeon, and partner at SkinCare Physicians in Chestnut Hill, MA. “Combining these two procedures in a single system is a terrific advantage, and having no disposable expense is an added bonus. Sciton has used its unmatched laser science expertise to offer superior clinical outcomes and address the economic challenges that physicians face.”
