Syneron's Breakthrough Technologies Take Center Stage at 31st Annual Conference of the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery

YOKNEAM, Israel, April 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Syneron Medical Ltd. (NASDAQ: ELOS), www.syneron.com, the global leader in the medical aesthetic device marketplace, further solidified its commitment to science, results and earning the trust of aesthetic physicians with a strong showing of Syneron and Candela's innovative technologies at the 31st Annual Conference of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery (ASLMS) in Grapevine, Texas.

"Our unique combination of cutting-edge science, life-enhancing clinical results and high level of trust within the global aesthetic community continues to solidify our position at the forefront of this industry," said Louis P. Scafuri, Chief Executive Officer of Syneron. "We value the opportunity that conferences such as ASLMS provide to showcase our ability to consistently create and commercialize scientific advances in innovative medical and aesthetic solutions that meet our customers' needs."

At the ASLMS conference, Syneron and Candela featured a family of newly available breakthrough products, including:  

• GentleLASE® PRO High Speed Hair Removal System, the Company's latest and most advanced aesthetic laser.  Building on its highly successful hair removal product line, the next-generation GentleLASE Pro has been improved to meet the demands of physicians by giving them faster treatment times, greater treatment versatility and enhanced ease of use.  

According to Thomas E. Rohrer, MD, Skincare Physicians of Chestnut Hill, MA, "We have 20 to 30 different lasers, and a lot of these do hair removal, but we keep ending back at the GentleLASE. It continues to be my go-to laser for hair removal, no matter how many hair removal lasers we try."

• ePrime™ Energy-Based Dermal Remodeling System, which was featured in an experts panel session that was attended by more than 220 physicians interested in learning about this revolutionary new dimension in facial enhancement. Bypassing the epidermis, ePrime is the first minimally invasive aesthetic device to precisely target and deliver measured radio frequency (RF) energy directly into the deep dermis to stimulate the growth of collagen and elastin for noticeable improvement of skin tone and volume in a single treatment.

• elure™ Advanced Skin Lightening Technology™, the first and only topical skin lightening product that improves appearance by temporarily reducing melanin, the pigment that accumulates in the skin to cause a darkened or uneven skin tone. Using this novel natural enzyme called Melanozyme™, the elure system delivers improvement in skin appearance, creating healthier, brighter and younger-looking skin in 30 days, with excellent tolerability.

• CO2RE™ Complete CO2 Resurfacing System, a versatile CO2 system that offers all current aesthetic CO2 treatment methodologies plus the unique Fusion fractional mode that has the ability to treat both superficial and deep skin layers simultaneously with precision-control over the intensity, pattern and depth of ablation. The introduction of CO2RE gives customers more choices and greater flexibility to meet their individual practice needs without the requirement of multiple hand pieces or optical spots.

• eMatrix® Sublative Rejuvenation®, the world's first bipolar RF-only technology for energy-based facial rejuvenation. The device delivers high-intensity dermal impact with less epidermal ablation, resulting in minimal patient downtime. Due to the minimal epidermal disruption, eMatrix treats skin texture and tone without skin color limitations, making it an ideal rejuvenation choice for patients with darker skin tones.

In addition to displaying its latest world-class aesthetic technologies, Syneron had nearly 20 abstracts presented at the meeting, highlighting the Company's strong commitment to science, which forms the building blocks to innovate new technology.
