About Solta Medical Inc. (NASDAQ: SLTM)
SLTM design, develop, manufacture and market aesthetic energy devices to address a range of skin conditions brought on by the effects of aging, environmental factors or hormonal changes. SLTM products are patented and generally require FDA clearance and in Europe, the CE Mark prior to marketing.
The product technologies SLTM uses include RF energy, to heat and shrink collagen and tighten tissue while simultaneously cooling and protecting the surface of the skin; lasers for skin resurfacing and the treatment of actinic keratosis; intense pulsed light (“IPL”) for the treatment of mild to moderate acne and other dermatologic conditions; and high intensity ultrasound (“HIFU”) for the destruction of subcutaneous adipose tissue for the purpose of waist circumference reduction.
SLTM was incorporated in 1996 and received FDA clearance for our first Thermage RF system in 2002. Through a number of acquisitions, SLTM added:
- the Fraxel laser systems from Reliant Technologies in December 2008;
- the Isolaz (IPL) system from Aesthera Corporation in February 2010;
- the Claro (IPL) personal care acne treatment device from CLRS in October 2010, and
- the Liposonix system from our acquisition of Medicis Technologies Corporation in November 2011.
SLTM’s latest product introduction is the CLEAR + BRILLIANT laser system, for which they received FDA clearance in May 2011. In addition, FDA clearance for the second generation Liposonix system which they acquired from Medicis Pharmaceutical Corporation (“Medicis”) was received in October 2011.
