Alma Lasers Unveils Minimally Invasive Solution for Stretch Marks, Scars, and Skin Whitening, "TED with Impact Technology"

Caesarea, Israel (PRWEB) August 31, 2011

The first minimally invasive solution for treating stretch marks, deep acne scars, skin whitening, melasma and skin rejuvenation has been unveiled by Alma Lasers Ltd., (http://www.almalasers.com), a leading developer and manufacturer of innovative aesthetic technologies for dermatologists, plastic surgeons and beauty spas.

TED with Impact technology is a trans-epidermal delivery solution that breaks through the skin barrier and overcomes the build up of intercellular fluid to deliver specially formulated active agents directly to sub-epidermal layers of the skin.

Dr. Michael Gold, an internationally recognized expert on new technologies in medical aesthetics, states that Alma Lasers new Impact technology successfully overcomes the problem that until now has limited the success of trans-epidermal delivery.

?Trans epidermal delivery is among the most important innovations in medical aesthetics in recent years, as the delivery of active agents directly to the sub-epidermal tissue offers significant advantages in treating difficult skin conditions. Trans epidermal delivery starts with perforating the epidermis to create microchannels, and then spreading topical active agents over the area. The same perforation of the skin releases intercellular fluid which rises up within the microchannels, preventing passage of the active agents. Impact technology solves this problem by applying reverse pressure within the microchannels, overcoming the blockage of intercellular fluid and forcing the active agents to the sub-epidermal layers," said Dr. Gold.

Dr. Gold will join Alma Lasers CEO Dr. Ziv Karni to speak on the potential of TED with Impact technology for advancing medical and aesthetic skin treatments at the 5CC Conference for Laser and Aesthetic Medicine in Cannes, France, September 1-3, and during the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology Congress in Lisbon, Portugal, October 20-24.

TED employs ProfoundPixel active agents, which are specially formulated according to the skin condition being treated with the correct viscosity and concentration of relevant active agents.

Multi-site clinical studies conducted across the globe have proven the clinical benefits of the TED concept using Impact technology and ProfoundPixel, while histological research has confirmed the effectiveness of Impact in pushing active agents to sub-epidermal layers of the skin.

TED with Impact technology is safe for all skin types anytime throughout the year. Treatment has virtually no pain or downtime, and can be performed with all Alma Lasers fractional technologies including Erbium, Plasma and CO2.

Dr. Babak Larian Announces That The Micro Parotidectomy Minimally Invasive Surgery Technique Reduces Recovery Time & Scarring

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 09, 2011

The micro parotidectomy minimally invasive surgery technique pioneered by Dr. Babak Larian significantly reduces recovery time in scarring for patients suffering from Parotid gland problems.

Dr. Babak Larian, of the CENTER for Advanced Head & Neck Surgery in Beverly Hills, routinely sees patients from Southern California, as well as nationally and internationally due to his expertise and pioneering in minimally invasive surgery technique for the treatment of sinus, thyroid, parathyroid, salivary glands and throat disorders. His minimally invasive techniques are beneficial to patients because it speeds the recovery time and minimizes scarring, which is important for patients who need surgery on their face and neck. Furthermore, most procedures can now be done as outpatient, without the need for hospitalization. Dr. Larian specializes in all types of minimally invasive surgery and treatments for the head and neck region, including minimally invasive thyroidectomy, minimally invasive parathyroidectomy, and minimally invasive parotidectomy.

Since Dr. Larian specializes in head and neck surgeries, it is important to him to provide his patients with the smallest scar possible. ?The head and neck are the most visible areas on the body and patients are always concerned with the scar they will be left with after surgery. I take great pride in being able to minimize the resulting surgical scar through using the most advanced and minimally invasive surgery techniques,? said Dr. Larian. Minimally invasive surgeries have revolutionized the treatments for many head and neck surgeries, and result in less discomfort, quicker recovery and better outcomes than traditional surgery techniques.

To treat thyroid disorders, Dr. Larian performs a minimally invasive thyroidectomy. He uses endoscopic surgical techniques to perform the procedure through an incision that is approximately one inch long, leaving an almost invisible scar. The endoscope not only minimizes the scar and trauma to the tissue, but it also magnifies the tissue so the laryngeal nerve and parathyroid glands are highly visible.

Dr. Larian is one of the few surgeons in the country who has the expertise to perform minimally invasive parathyroidectomy surgeries to treat hyperparathyroidism, a parathyroid disorder. His surgical technique allows him to access the parathyroid through a very small incision, less than an inch. This approach significantly reduces the risk of surgical complications.

Additionally, Dr. Larian is an expert at superficial parotidectomy, a surgical procedure to remove a parotid gland. The superficial parotidectomy only removes the superficial lobe of the grand and presents less risk to the surrounding facial nerve branches. Since this procedure is so minimally invasive, it is performed as an outpatient surgery, allowing most patients to return home the same day.

Dr. Babak Larian, the Chairman and the Director of the CENTER for Advanced Head & Neck Surgery in Los Angeles, is a highly experienced and reputable, board-certified ear, head and neck surgeon, specializing in ear, nose and throat surgery. Dr. Larian is nationally renowned for his expertise in minimally invasive surgery techniques in the treatment of sinus, thyroid, parathyroid, salivary glands and throat disorders.
