PRECISION ENERGY, VERSATILITY AND ROI MEET THE NEEDS OF BUSY PRACTITIONERS

As the demand for multi-functional, high-performance devices grows, VYDENCE® Medical's compact, scalable platforms are redefining what practitioners can achieve — from first-time laser users to global key opinion leaders

VYDENCE® MEDICAL

hails from Brazil, known as the bastion of aesthetics. The company is headquartered in Tampa, Florida, and São Carlos, Brazil, and has a strong presence across Latin America, Europe, the USA, Canada, the Middle East, and Africa.

The company is recognised as a market leader in Brazil, with a solid global presence and consistent high growth due to its innovative platforms that deliver natural results for patients. Their systems are designed to deliver up to four technologies in a single session to optimise outcomes. There are no consumables or additional costs to keep a high return on investment for their practices.

Thus, it is no surprise that the VYDENCE portfolio of highquality systems at reasonable prices has become a staple for many experts around the globe.

Beyond the usual indications of the different handpieces, I especially love the DualMode® 2940 nm handpiece. I use it to boost transepidermal tattoo pigment removal together with the Q-switched handpiece, and for laser-assisted drug delivery. What makes the DualMode so

special is that you can use it purely ablative or combine ablation with thermal injury, depending on what the treatment needs.

I also really appreciate the ProDeep® handpiece with its 1340 nm wavelength. It penetrates deeper thanks to its low affinity for water, giving great results on subdermal tissue. Patients tend to have less redness and faster recovery, and it works well on all skin types and areas of the body. Another advantage of these two handpieces is the integrated epidermal cooling adapter, which connects seamlessly to your air-cooling device. This feature enhances patient comfort by delivering targeted cooling directly to the treated laser spot, while keeping your hands free to focus on precise treatment. It not only improves the overall treatment experience but also adds an extra layer of safety for both the patient and practitioner.

I use my VYDENCE ZYE® continuously throughout my day to help treat pigmentation, sun damage and for overall skin rejuvenation. My key handpiece is the handPICO® because it is so versatile for treating sun damage and pigmentation.

■ handPICO 532 (3 mm, 5 mm): I use it for discrete lentigines in lighter skin types, and it can also be used for cafe au lait macules.

■ handPICO 1064 (3 mm, 5 mm): utilised for discrete lentigines in darker skin types (IV-VI). It is also helpful for treating hemosiderin and Nevus of Ota.

■ handPICO 7 mm 1064: In my practice, we use it for patchy pigmentation and melasma. This is a moving handpiece technique on low power settings. The risk of 'confettilike' hypopigmentation appears to be significantly lower with pico compared to nano. No downtime, just slightly pink.

■ handPICO 6 mm FRACTIONAL 1064: This is what I prefer for patchy pigmentation and melasma, but also for collagen stimulation down into the dermis. No downtime, just slightly pink. Overall, it is used for skin rejuvenation with pigmentation issues.

■ ProDeep 1340 collimated 6 mm is helpful for acne inflammatory lesions. It can also help active lesions of hidradenitis suppurativa. ProDeep 1340 FRACTIONAL 8 mm is helpful with the moving handpiece technique for photo rejuvenation, scarring, milder acne scars, and stretch marks. It can be used

to layer with handPICO for infraorbital rejuvenation with pigmentation, as well as pigmentation in scarring and stretch marks.

Mariana Vilhena, MD, Magna Clinic, São Paulo, Brazil  I particularly see great value in the handPICO, ProDeep, and DualMode technologies, often combining them in most clinical protocols. The platform with these three handpieces allows me to achieve highly impressive clinical outcomes even from the very first session. Considering that many patients tend to be hesitant about committing to multiple treatment sessions, I prioritise addressing their main concerns early on. This approach builds trust, enhances compliance, and ultimately adds greater value to my medical practice.

Beyond facial rejuvenation, stretch marks, and scar remodelling, I have consistently incorporated ProDeep for hair restoration protocols, especially through drug delivery of different active compounds. The outcomes are significantly enhanced, with noticeable improvements typically observed after approximately three sessions — particularly in hair shaft density and thickness. Without question, ProDeep stands as the most unique and versatile technology in my practice and represents the ideal complement to either handPICO or DualMode.

London. We have been using the ETHEREA MX® from VYDENCE for over a year now. I find it to be very effective for treating acne, acne scars, rosacea, melasma, photoaging, as well as tightening and laxity. The benefits of speed and efficiency in our busy international practice have been exceptional.

Our doctors and nurses can treat our diverse patients who come from all over the world with this system. It offers excellent, long-lasting results with minimal downtime, which is what our patients are looking for. The system is very versatile and offers good value for practices.

The VYDENCE system offers many options to meet our patients' needs, and the results we can achieve with this system are impressive.

Tess Mauricio, MD, FAAD, M Beauty Clinic by Dr. Tess, San Diego, CA, USA

We love VYDENCE ProDeep for hair, alone or in combination with our hair protocols. The VYDENCE ProDeep device offers a novel 1340 nm wavelength that targets deep in the scalp non-invasively to stimulate the hair follicles, increase circulation, and aid in hair restoration.

We educate all our hair loss patients about VYDENCE ProDeep treatments. We have seen it help patients with androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium, traction alopecia, hair loss associated with weight loss medications, and alopecia areata.

Many of our aesthetic patients seeking skin treatments are also interested in hair restoration. We can now treat their skin and hair very effectively. We have expanded our offerings and increased patient loyalty and satisfaction, which results in more referrals. There is a lot of interest in hair treatments from patients. It makes us feel good to be able to help patients regain confidence and improve their quality of life with these hair restoration treatments.

The compact systems we have seen from VYDENCE are impressive. They are very affordable and make a great choice for small practices and medical spas. The systems are also ideal for all practitioners and to delegate to nurses, aestheticians, and medical assistants who are just starting to use laser technology.

The reasonable pricing and exceptional engineering make these systems efficient, affordable, and safe in the hands of even first-time laser users.  The handpieces are compact, which makes them easy to store and use, especially for small areas on the face and body. The smaller units are also helpful to use for the face, neck, chest, hands, hairline, legs and scalp with ease.

We have found the engineering of the VYDENCE portfolio to be highly effective and versatile to deliver excellent results for our patients.

Suneel Chilukuri, MD, FAAD, FACMS, Refresh Dermatology, Houston, TX, USA

I describe VYDENCE as the ‘Lexus of Lasers’ — their technology team has taken the best of each category of lasers and light-based devices, removed the pain points, and made the devices extremely effective and reliable.

The advantage of the current VYDENCE devices is the ability to customise each device to match your patient's needs. Their portfolio includes eight handpieces and four laser fibres for a wide range of treatments with the ability to treat erythema, pigmentation, actinic damage, photoaging, and hair. Best of all is the affordable device and handpiece pricing with no post-purchase consumables or hidden costs. Some highlights of the portfolio include a non-ablative 1340nm Er:YAP handpiece that optimises treatment of active acne, acne

scars, surgical scars, and skin rejuvenation. For further enhancement, one may choose to add the DualMode, an ablative Er:YAG that fires at two pulse energies to allow contraction of the skin while minimising downtime for the patient.  As your practice expands, you may consider adding the handheld handPICO to address hyperpigmentation, including melanoma, lentigines, superficial seborrheic keratoses, and tattoos.

One of my new favourite handpieces is the LongPulse® Nd:YAG that allows me to treat deep and superficial vessels. I am now able to treat the periorbital veins that plague many of our maturing patients. Many practitioners start with one system with two or three handpieces and expand as their practice grows. The systematic, deliberate additions allow the practice owner to appropriately budget while meeting and exceeding patient expectations.

We have found the VYDENCE team to be very attentive and eager to help with training and assistance as needed. With several dedicated master trainers, VYDENCE customers are able to effectively use their systems with utmost patient safety. For a boutique practice like mine, it is important to note that the systems are compact and light, so they are easily moved from room to room as needed, which saves time and money.

I rarely recommend multi-use platforms to my colleagues as the devices end up being 'jacks of all trades but masters of none'. However, I commend the VYDENCE scientific team for creating powerful bases with well-engineered handpieces that provide excellent results. The portfolio makes it easy to customise the technology for whatever your needs may be. It’s a win-win.
