GEM – IPL
The light energy is focused 3mm below the surface of the skin, resulting in heating of the target internal tissue instead of the surface of the skin and painless treatment.
Efficiency
Very large treatment area: Fewer flashes for each treatment: faster and safer
Powerful
High energy density in a short pulse. Duration allows for better treatment and better results
Light bulb
Only 3% intensity decline after 100,000 or 200,000 pulses, guaranteed!
Differential Technology
GEM-PL® Technology
The Difference Between Emitting Energy and Managing Energy
Most conventional IPL systems simply emit light energy into the skin.
The Active IPL Extra 818m® goes further.
Thanks to GEM-PL® technology (Geometric Energy Management), energy is intelligently managed to maximise treatment efficiency and improve patient comfort.
Instead of concentrating excessive heat on the skin surface, GEM-PL® optimises energy distribution to act where it is truly needed.
