Multiple-Option Laser System

The JOULE Aesthetic Laser Platform combines laser lipolysis and fractional resurfacing capabilities. The platform also can be used for hair removal and a wide variety of vascular treatments, so practitioners can perform an expanded range of procedures. The laser system delivers multiple wavelengths through any of three modes—arm, fiber, or broadband light—and has four laser bays and a pulsed-light bay. The system is "future proof," as modules yet to be invented will be designed to function on the platform.

Dual Protection Sun Care

The Antihelios 60 sun protection product line offers two-way protection from UVA and UVB rays. This product line features the Cell-OX Shield—a combination of two sun filters, avobenzone (3%) and octocrylene (5%), plus an antioxidant complex to protect skin from environmental damage and a photostabilizing booster for longer sun protection. The products include an Ultra Light Fluid for normal to combination skin (for the face), Melt-in Milk for face and body (all skin types), and Melt-in Cream for normal to dry skin (for the face). The products have a sheer finish, and they are water-resistant and suitable for sensitive skin.

Combination Acne Gel

Acanya Gel has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat acne vulgaris in patients aged 12 years and older. The gel contains 1.2% clindamycin phosphate and 2.5% benzoyl peroxide and is designed for once-daily use. Data from Phase III clinical trials showed significantly greater patient satisfaction after 12 weeks of using Acanya Gel compared with patients' previous acne therapies, and no patients in the trial discontinued the product due to adverse events. The gel is aqueous-based and alcohol-free and may be used for both inflammatory and noninflammatory lesions.
