Motus AX MANUFACTURER NOTES
Motus AX is the new system that DEKA has developed to complete the Moveo technology. A system without rivalries, with all the benefits of Alexandrite laser without the disadvantages:
• The only wavelength which is effective at treating fine and light hair. In fact, no other type of laser is able to combine an efficient melanin absorption (at 755 nm), a high peak power (more than 6,000 W) and the possibility of selecting a short pulse length (up to 2 ms).
• The Moveo handpiece allows unwanted hair to be removed by means of a new method that is easier, faster, safer and more effective (painless treatment, also suitable for darker skin types).
• An innovative technology that structurally simplifies the heart of the laser system, reducing costs and maintenance problems.
• A compact, portable system with a surprisingly low cost!
DEKA introduces the new Moveo PL handpiece, which extends the advantages of Moveo technology to the treatment of benign pigmented lesions. This new 7 mm handpiece allows to treat skin spots by progressively heating the lesion. Compared to the traditional “single spot” technique, the Moveo PL handpiece guarantees excellent efficacy without causing discolouration or hypopigmentation, which are very common, especially in skin with diffuse pigmentation. Once again, thanks to Moveo technology, patients can benefit from a painless, safe and effective treatment.
The Moveo handpiece with the sapphire tip, developed by DEKA’s R&D, is the killer application in medical laser hair removal.
Indicated Uses
- Hair Removal
- Pigmented Lesions
The Effectiveness of Technological Innovation
The energy emitted by a laser system with wavelength visible and near infrared radiation is largely reflected by the skin. The graph below shows the reflectivity of the skin at various wavelengths and melanin content. For instance, the 755 nm Alexandrite laser wavelength demonstrates the percentage of reflection with melanin content of 8% (corre¬sponds to phototype III) is over 50%. This is a significant portion of energy lost during the treatment, which cannot be used for therapeutic purposes. This is due to the high variation of reflectance between the skin and the surrounding air. The Moveo handpiece was designed to solve this problem. DEKA has developed a technology using a sapphire tip that drastically reduces the amount of energy reflected by the skin, with an efficiency that has never been seen until now.
All the Advantages but without Limitations!
DEKA has overcome limitations and difficulties of the traditional Alexandrite for hair removal while retaining all the advantages. The Moveo Technology uses simple, even movements over specific areas, removing unwanted hair due to its 20 mm sapphire tip size. The repeated passes over small areas, cause gradual heating of the vital parts of the hair leading to its destruction in a way that is totally painless for the patient and side-effects free such as burning or discolouring.
