December 27, 2004, Yokneam, Israel--Lumenis, a global manufacturer and seller of laser and light-based devices for medical, aesthetic, ophthalmic, dental and veterinary applications, announced today the shipment of its 150th Lumenis One system, a significant milestone for the company.

The Lumenis One is a platform for aesthetic light and laser treatments designed to meet physician needs. Lumenis began shipping Lumenis One in April 2004. Lumenis One unites three technologies on one multi-technology and multi-application platform; the Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) for skin photorejuvenation and treating vascular and pigmented lesions, the LightSheer diode laser for hair removal and the Multi-Spot neodymium-yag (Nd:Yag) for treating leg veins and deeper vascular lesions. The system's key features include Optimal Pulse Technology (OPT), numerous presets, custom settings, and a touch-screen software interface. These enable Lumenis One to provide increased patient comfort, faster treatments, and easily tracked patient information.

Physicians who have purchased Lumenis One during the last year are quick to praise its benefits citing patient satisfaction, speed, and cost effectiveness among the key advantages. "The special feature Patient Database has saved me significant time and money. It's great to be able to get all treatment parameters, as well as medical records that help the operator go to advanced settings quickly. The Database should be on every system," stated Dr. Corey Maas of San Francisco, California.
