American Laser Skincare Launches Cutting-Edge Palomar Icon® and SilkPeel® Technology in Select Boston Locations

BOSTON, March 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- American Laser Skincare today announced that is has selected four Boston area clinics for a field test of two additions to its skin rejuvenation service portfolio. Peabody, Worcester, Braintree and Boston (Newbury Street) will be the first clinics in the country to test the Palomar Icon®  and Envy SilkPeel® skincare systems.

"Boston is a dynamic market. We believe our aesthetic skincare customers here are quite discerning," said Dr. Paul Flashner, chief medical director for American Laser Skincare and medical director for the Boston area. "We're excited to share these new products and give our local clientele the chance to experience them."

The Palomar Icon Aesthetic System uses state-of-the-art laser and optimized light technology to treat hyperpigmentation, rosacea, facial vascular lesions, surgical scars, fine lines, wrinkles and stretch marks. It includes the Skintel® Melanin Reader, the only FDA-approved melanin reader, which determines the average melanin density of skin. The Icon also contains a built-in cooling system, allowing more energy to be delivered with less pain. The result is more customizable treatments, yielding a safer, more comfortable and more effective user experience in up to 50 percent less time required by other systems.

SilkPeel is a unique microdermabrasion technology that is the only medical-grade in-office procedure to use patented dermalinfusion technology. This allows SilkPeel to treat a wider variety of skin conditions. The process uses a diamond-tipped hand piece to remove the top layer of skin while simultaneously infusing the skin with a potent topical SilkPeel serum. Microdermabrasion is one of the top five non-surgical procedures performed nationally. Envy Medical's unique SilkPeel protocol allows it to expand on traditional microderm benefits to treat acne, hyperpigmentation, dry skin, stretch marks, as well as combat signs of aging in the face and body. 

"Palomar Icon and SilkPeel are two of the most cutting-edge technologies available in skincare today and something we want to share with our clients," Flashner said. "This is just another example of how American Laser Skincare constantly looks to provide the best technology, services and skincare expertise, helping our customers look and feel their best."
