Thermage/Fraxel to Open High-Tech R&D Center

frax-thermSolta Medical Inc. recently announced plans to open an Aesthetic Center in California that will function as an R&D hub and a physician training facility with an in-house clinic.

The activities within the center will focus on all of the innovative AED technologies (of Fraxel and Thermage) that have been brought together under the Solta Medical name.

According to one participating dermatologist (quoted in the press release), the center “will allow the company’s optics and biomedical engineers to share data and receive immediate clinical feedback about their work in new product development and existing product enhancement.”

The facility’s grand opening will coincide with the 67th annual meeting of the American Academy of Dermatology in San Francisco, which will feature in-depth discussions and presentations on laser resurfacing and skin tightening.

With all of these new developments and collaborations in the field, it is not unreasonable to expect some exciting new technological advancements in the cosmetic surgery and dermatology industry.
