Matrix Fractional CO2 Laser for Only $49,900

The revolutionary Matrix CO2 Laser from Sandstone Medical Technologies offers Fractional CO-2 Laser features and versatility at an incredible price. Especially now, when every penny counts for aesthetic medical practices, the Matrix CO-2 laser gives medical and medspa practices a competitive edge, including monthly lease prices that are as low as half of those of competiting products.

WebMD calls Fractional CO2 Laser technology "the antiaging breakthrough of the decade." This new technology offers the power and effectiveness of a carbon dioxide laser without the fully ablative side affects, allowing for skin resurfacing with minimal downtime and patient discomfort.

Features:

• Price $49,900 (Lowest Price of all Fractional CO2 Lasers)
• Warranty: 2 Years Parts and Labor (longest in industry)
• Consumables: None (other lasers require OEM consumables)
• Spot Size: 150µm
• Scan Area: 18mm x 18mm
• Ablation Depth: 50-600µm
• Laser Power: 30 Watts
• Patient Downtime: 3-5 Days (lowest of all CO2 lasers)
• Anesthetic Requirement: Topical Only

One of the most important features of the Matrix Fractional CO-2 laser is the UltraFine Fractional Scanner, which provides great versatility and power at the operator's fingertips.

The Matrix scanner provides practitioners complete flexibility in choosing the area of skin to be left untreated. MicroAblative Column (MAC) density can be set to either 200 microns, 1-millimeter or 2-millimeters, allowin you to tailor the treatment to the specific indications, taking into consideration the patient's downtime preferences.

Spot Sizes and Patterns: The hand scanner can be set to one of five different spot patterns, switchable on the fly for a different skin areas and operator preferences. Density, size, and duration can also be controlled instantly with a push of a button on the scanner. With up to an 18mm spot size, the scanner can complete an entire facial skin resurfacing procedure in under 15 minutes.

Sandstone Medical Technologies is the manufacturer of the Matrix line of aesthetic lasers, including the Matrix LS-25 Fractional CO2 Laser distributed by Cresent Lasers.

In 2008, Sandstone Medical Technologies expanded its US manufacturing operations in Birmingham Alabama to provide final assembly, testing and analysis, and warranty service for the very successful line of Matrix lasers.

Sandstone is headed by President, Mark C. Rohrer, who works very closely with Cresent Laser Technologies to insure standards of quality and workmanship that we have not seen from most other aesthetic laser manufacturers.

Sandstone manufacturers lasers that compete with the Fraxel and other brands of fractional CO2 lasers.

Cresent Laser is one of the early pioneers in providing fractional CO2 laser skin resurfacing lasers to our client MedSpas.

Until just a few years ago, ablative skin resurfacing with full-powered lasers was the only available solution for rejuvenating skin.  In the early days, surgical CO2 lasers were used, and more recently, erbium lasers were developed which were safer and minimized downtime. If you know of anyone who ever had this procedure done, however, you may recall that they probably had to tak a full week off work, couldn't go out in the sun for several weeks, and the healing process involved an oosing bubbling sometimes painful recovery.    Ablative laser resurfacing, although effective, was not ideally suited to most people's lifestyles and pain thresholds.

Ablative laser skin resurfacing worked by applying a very precise amount of laser energy to the skin, which heated up the water in the top lasers of the skin to the point where that water evaporated and the skin cells were destroyed.  After that, the body's natural collagen building repair system kicked in and began to build new and beautiful layaers of skin.  Ablative skin resurfacing worked, removing sun-damaged skin, and filling in new collagen where wrinkles and fine lines once existed, and thousands of women did it.

A few years ago, however, scientists began exploring the idea of pulsing and pixelating lasers in such a way that they would damage the skin beneath the surface, which has the collagen-producing effects, but leaving the skin at the top intact, which significantly reduces patient downtime.  Today, these fractional co2 lasers have revolutionized the services that MedSpas and dermatoligicts can provide, introducing laser skin resurfacing techniques that now millions of men and women can both afford and work into their busy lifestyles.

Fractional CO2 lasers employs a technique known as fractional photothermolysis, which uses precise laser beams to affect very small interspersed groupings of skin cells, leaving the adjacent cells intact so that they can quickly fill in the very small damaged areas and significantly decrease the healing process.  A similar approach is used by those who touch up historical photographs with digintal imaging, where they go in and fix the color or intensity of some pixels but leave adjacent pixels in tact so that the image doesn't lose it's clarity or definition.  If you were to "fix" all of the pixels, the image might look "airbrushed."
