"Pearl Fractional is a unique and outstanding treatment option for the
delicate periorbital area, which often shows the first signs of aging and can
be the most challenging to treat," said Brian Biesman, M.D., medical director
of the Nashville Centre for Laser and Facial Surgery, Nashville, TN, and
immediate past president of the American Society for Laser Medicine and
Surgery. "The treatment works so well because it delivers very nice skin
tightening plus it addresses skin quality - improving tone, texture and
discoloration for an overall more youthful appearance."

Physicians traditionally treat photo-damaged skin around the eyes with spot
laser treatments and dermal fillers. The new approach, pioneered by Dr.
Biesman, not only uses Pearl Fractional around the eyes, but directly over the
eyelids and under the eyes too.

Dr. Biesman notes that the procedure is especially popular with patients who
are approaching a milestone. "A lot of my patients come to me on the 4s and
the 9s - 34, 39, 44, 49," he said. "My patients are very pleased that they see
immediate, noticeable improvement in a single treatment, with very little
recovery time."

Pearl Fractional, utilizing a specialized patented 2790 nm wavelength,
received FDA clearance in 2008 and offers physicians a new and beneficial
approach to resurfacing the skin. As with all aesthetic procedures, patients
should consult a physician experienced in aesthetic laser procedures to ensure
that their treatment is safe and effective.
