K211821 (El.En Electronic Engineering Spa, 2021)

Alexandrite 755nm laser source: Temporary hair reduction. Stable long-term or permanent hair reduction through selective targeting of melanin in hair follicles. Permanent hair reduction is defined as the long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing when measured at 6,9, and 12 months after the completion of a treatment regime, on all skin types (Fitzpatrick I – VI) including tanned skin. Treatment of benign pigmented lesions. Treatment of wrinkles. Photocoagulation of benign dermatological vascular lesions (such as port-wine stains, hemangiomas, telangiectasias). Nd:YAG 1064nm laser source: Removal of unwanted hair, for stable long term or permanent hair reduction and for treatment of PFB. The lasers are indicated on all Skin Types Fitzpatrick I-VI including tanned skin. Photocoagulation and hemostasis of benign pigmented and benign vascular lesions, such as but not limited to port wine stains, hemangioma, warts, teleangiectasia, rosacea, venus lake, leg veins and spider veins. Coagulation and hemostasis of soft tissue. Benign pigmented lesions such as, but not limited to, lentigos, (age spots), solar lentigos (sun spots), cafe au lait macules, seborrheic keratosis, nevi, cloasma, verrucae, skin tags, keratosis and plaques. The laser is indicated for benign pigmented lesions to reduce lesion size, for patients with lesions that would potentially benefit from aggressive treatment, and for patients with lesions that have not responded to other laser treatments. The laser is also indicated for the reduction of red pigmentation in hypertrophic and keloid scars where vascularity is an integral part of the scar. Treatment of wrinkles.

Overview

Current Cartessa-distributed flagship

How it worksTechnology and manufacturing

How the technology works

Pairs a true 755nm alexandrite (melanin-greedy — fine and light-skinned hair) with a 1064nm Nd:YAG (deeper, melanin-sparing, safe for Fitzpatrick V-VI and PFB) in one console.

Moveo delivery replaces high-fluence single shots with rapid low-fluence repetitive passes in constant motion through a cooled sapphire tip in direct skin contact — heat accumulates gradually in the follicle to lethal temperature while the epidermis stays comfortable, and contact delivery reduces the light scatter/reflection losses of gapped handpieces.

Cleared uses: permanent hair reduction on all skin types, benign pigmented lesions, vascular lesions, wrinkles; Moveo Skin/Pigment modes extend into gentle photorejuvenation. Still 6-8 sessions — no delivery method changes follicle biology.

Patented technology

Moveo is DEKA's proprietary in-motion, contact-cooled sapphire handpiece system — the real innovation is thermodynamic (gradual sub-threshold heating plus index-matched contact optics claiming ~20% better energy transmission), not a new laser medium.

It genuinely reduces pain and epidermal risk; it also makes outcomes more technique-dependent — train staff properly.
