IOPtima Ltd has announced the launch of the iLid CO2 laser kit. A spokeswoman said the kit will enable oculoplastic surgeons to perform safe, effective CO2 laser-assisted blepharoplasty.
Using the iLid CO2 laser kit instead of a manual surgical scalpel, surgeons employ a CO2 laser beam with adjustable levels of penetration to incise the upper and lower eyelids and remove excess fat. The CO2 laser beam also vaporises the top layer of skin, restoring its surface and smoothing the lid.
“Dual use of this technology allows clinics to have two applications in one device,” said IOPtima CEO Ronen Castro.
