Seven abstracts will demonstrate the performance of the brand's customizable, picosecond PicoWay® lasers for the removal of tattoos from an array of skin types, the correction of skin pigmentation and histological findings showing the effects of photoacoustic treatments on skin. Additional abstracts focus on the efficacy of permanent laser hair removal featuring the combination of an alexandrite 755nm laser with the award-winning elos® technology as well as impressive results from a study on Profound®, the first microneedle based fractional radiofrequency device to have a 100 percent response rate for rebuilding collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid. Two abstracts will feature the company's established CO₂RE platform, offering a range of solutions for resurfacing, wrinkle and scar reduction, pigmentation correction, and now the newly released CO₂RE® Intima treatment, for restoring vaginal health.

Abstracts featuring the company's established CO₂RE platform will be presented in the two sessions below:

In the first session, César Arroyo, M.D. will discuss clinical trial results from a CO₂RE Intima study resulting in proven remodeling of vaginal and vulvar tissue and a 94% patient satisfaction rate.

"I led the initial clinical study on CO₂RE Intima at H. M. Monteprincipe Hospital in Madrid. Of the 21 women treated, 94 percent were satisfied with the treatment, which is a very high satisfaction rate for an aesthetic procedure," said César Arroyo, M.D. "I have had previous experience using other technologies for this type of vaginal treatment, both Er:YAG and radiofrequency. I found the CO₂ technology of CO₂RE Intima to be a more effective treatment because it both ablates and coagulates providing the type of fractional impact that is most effective on mucosal tissue. In addition, it can be used to treat all three areas: vaginal canal, introitus and vulva."
