2006
Radiancy had an productive year, introducing 4 new light-based devices and a world wide expansion of their home-use products distribution. The year started on a good note when the LHE psoriasis application received FDA clearance, broadening the treatments that can now be offered in the US.
Next, Radiancy launched Duet, an LHE device that combines today's most popular treatments, hair removal and skin photo rejuvenation.
They then upgraded their erbium YAG laser and released the WhisperNG, the next generation for gentle and effective laser skin resurfacing. As the year moved on, Radiancy launched their second laser, the Sirocco Nd:YAG, to clear tattoo and pigmented lesions.
Radiancy crowned the year with Mistral, their new flagship multi-application LHE device. Mistral incorporates the latest scientific and technological advances in a machine that embodies Radiancy's commitment to make quality light-based skin care available for everyone.
