New Anti-Cellulite and Laser Lipolysis Adjunct Delivers Results

MERRIMACK, N.H., April 21 /PRNewswire/ -- Breaking new ground in the battle against cellulite, Eleme Medical Inc. launched new SmoothShapes® XV, at the American Society for Lasers Medicine and Surgery in Phoenix, Arizona last week and will debut the system to plastic surgeons April 23, at the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery. "The original SmoothShapes has proven itself as the first medical approach to treating cellulite that delivers long lasting visible changes in creating smoother and tighter looking skin. This new system increases heat deposition in the fat cell three times faster while maintaining higher temperatures at the treatment site so I'm looking forward to the potential for even better results with fewer treatments," explains, Kenneth Beer MD, PA, a Board Certified Dermatologist and Dermatopathologist with practices in West Palm Beach and Jupiter, Florida.

Based on the company's proprietary Photomology® technology, which treats cellulite by combining dynamic laser and light energy with mechanical manipulation of vacuum and massage, this second generation device is portable and has 50% more power for a quicker, more reproducible procedure. The new system has also been enhanced to assure clinical consistency among treatment providers, offering a single treatment setting, audible treatment guidance and an interactive training screen to answer questions and provide basic clinical training.

"Consumer demand for non-invasive body shaping continues to grow," says Nancy Briefs, President and CEO of Eleme Medical which manufactures SmoothShapes XV. The device is co-marketed and sold by both Eleme Medical and Osyris Medical USA, a subsidiary of Osyris Medical, Lille, France. Ms. Briefs explains, "In a recent survey of physicians this consumer demand was validated by the physicians who said that the two largest categories in which they planned to purchase new equipment and grow their business were cellulite and laser lipolysis.*"

Many physicians have incorporated SmoothShapes into their laser lipolysis protocols and the popularity of these new combination therapies is growing. Miles Graivier, MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon from Atlanta developed some of the early protocols for combination body shaping. He says, "We can now improve our overall body shaping results while decreasing the patient's post treatment bruising, swelling and pain management. We believe the combined therapies are allowing us to deliver a new level of body shaping results to our patients."
