Skin

PPx Therapy is a breakthrough aesthetic treatment that uses a revolutionary combination of pneumatic energy and broadband light. PPx treatments are no pain treatments that are clinically proven effective and safe treatments for:

Age spots or brown blotchy pigmentation on the skin
Broken capillaries or broken blood vessels that cause "redness" and
Telangiectasias or fine facial veins

How are these treated?
A hygienic treatment tip gently draws the area to be treated into the handpiece of the Aesthera PPx system. This "pulling" up motion brings all the unwanted targets (unwanted red and brown spots, unwanted veins) closer to the surface of the skin.

Light energy, when gently applied to the targets, is converted to heat energy and absorbed by the targets, quickly, painlessly and effectively destroying them.

How is PPx Therapy different from other laser and light based hair removal treatments available?
PPx therapy is the first and only therapy to effectively combine pneumatic energy (pressure) with broadband light. PPx ttherapy differs from other laser and light based treatments in that they are 5x more efficient in the delivery of energy to unwanted pigment and veins. This highly efficient delivery of energy allows PPx therapy to use a fraction of the energy that other treatments require. PPx therapy is painless because energy is concentrated in the target to be destroyed, protecting the surrounding normal tissue. This also makes PPx therapy safer than other treatment modalities.

Treatments are relaxing and not associated with side effects such as the redness, crusting or other usual post treatment discomforts*. PPx therapy is 4 to 7 times faster than treatments with other laser or light based technologies. It does do not require pre-treatments with topical anesthetics or cooling gels, resulting in reducing treatment time by 35 - 45 minutes.

Tips provide you with personalized hygienic treatments while eliminating the risks of cross contamination and are uniquely customized to treat a wide range of conditions and body parts.
