Photorejuvenation Devices Industry Background

Over the past few years, it has been observed that the medical aesthetics industry has evolved drastically with the introduction of new technologies. Photorejuvenation devices provide different light wavelengths to target a broad range of applications. In 1995, the first intense pulse light device obtained FDA approval for lower extremity telangiectasias treatment. Since then the evolution of photorejuvenation industry is being triggered by the increasing adoption of IPL device in the end-use settings. The favourable cost of the device has led to the rapid use in several clinical settings. However, besides the early claims of having adverse many side effects and less efficacy, innovations in technology have resulted in the development of more predictable, and reliable aesthetic devices in the market.
