YOKNEAM, Israel, March 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- InMode Ltd. (Nasdaq: INMD), a leading global provider of innovative medical technologies, has filed a complaint with the United States International Trade Commission ("ITC") alleging ILOODA's SecretRF fractional radio frequency ("RF") microneedling system, distributed in the United States by Cutera, Inc., infringes U.S. Patent No. 10,799,285. Additionally, InMode requested that the ITC initiates an investigation into ILOODA's infringing imports and issue an exclusion order to bar importation of SecretRF.
