Eclipse Medical to Offer HOYA ConBio Lasers in Four-State Southern Region

FREMONT, Calif., July 30 (HSMN NewsFeed) -- HOYA ConBio, a global leader in dental and aesthetic medical laser technology, today announced an exclusive agreement for the MedLite C Series and RevLite lasers with Eclipse Medical Ltd., a leading distributor of aesthetic high-tech medical devices and supplies. The three-year agreement will give Eclipse Medical exclusive rights to distribute HOYA ConBio aesthetic lasers to medical professionals in Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma.

RevLite and MedLite C Series lasers are advanced, highly versatile aesthetic systems that represent the next generation of Q-switched engineering. Safe for use on all skin types, the EO Q-switched Nd:Yag lasers deliver energy with a PhotoAcoustic effect -- an efficient, patient-friendly alternative to devices that rely on photothermal (heat) action. Known worldwide as the gold standard for tattoo removal, HOYA ConBio lasers offer solutions for wrinkle reduction, acne scars, vascular and pigmented lesions, and hair removal. The RevLite, launched in 2007, features PhotoAcoustic Technology Pulse(TM) (PTP), a unique pulse dispersion that enables physicians to harness up to 60 percent more power.

"We are excited about the new relationship with Eclipse Medical and anticipate it will significantly enhance awareness and sales of RevLite and MedLite lasers in key southern markets," stated Timothy Gehlmann, President & CEO of HOYA ConBio. "This alliance is part of our aggressive strategy to educate physicians on the benefits of PhotoAcoustic therapy and communicate the value and excellent ROI of our multi-wavelength lasers for the progressive aesthetic practice."

Tom O'Brien, CEO of Eclipse Medical, believes that HOYA ConBio's innovative aesthetic medical lasers are a natural fit within his company's growing portfolio of cutting-edge technologies. "HOYA ConBio lasers are widely respected as the leading choice for multi-color tattoo removal. Once we learned more about the unique PhotoAcoustic delivery of energy behind tattoo removal, skin rejuvenation and other aesthetic treatments, we saw the potential to create a dynamic market leader in our territories. We strongly believe that PhotoAcoustic therapy is the next big thing."
