Advanced IPL Technology

Thermal Relaxation Time

Fractionised Pulse:
security guarantee

Each pulse of ThermaeyePlus can be divided up into three pulses. These fractioned pulses allow the user of higher energy fluences during treatmeant while providing better protection of the treated skin. The user can select the duration and energy of every individual pulse and also set the pulse interval. The intelligent technology protects the skin and prevents thermal damage.

Reduced risk of thermal damage

The advanced integrated skin cooling system of the ThermaeyePlus handpiece prevents excessive temperature increases to the epidermis.

This assists with decreasing unwanted thermal side effects on the treated skin area and makes the treatment more tolerable and safer for patients.

“Maximum comfort for the patient.
Maximum safety for the operator”

Care for patients
IPL helps improve results with each treatment

Many studies confirm IPL treatment achieves a statistically significant improvement in the relief of the clinical signs and symptoms of patients affected by MGD related to DED.
Maximum benefit usually occurs after a few IPL treatment sessions.
