MONTGOMERYVILLE, Pa., Apr 21, 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- PHMDD | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- PhotoMedex, Inc. (NASDAQ: PHMD), a leader in the development of proprietary excimer laser and fiber optic systems as well as other products for dermatological applications, today unveiled the XTRAC(R) Laser Post-Procedure Kit, an exciting new three-product system that clinics can offer their patients to speed healing, comfort and protection to post-treatment skin.

The XTRAC Laser Post-Procedure Kit features PhotoMedex' proven GHK Copper Peptide Complex(R), a therapeutic breakthrough that has been shown to enhance the healing outcome of cosmetic surgery and hair transplant procedures by positively impacting collagen deposition, tensile strength, anglogenesis and SOD activity (data on file). Specific products in the kit include:

-- Complex Cu3(R) Intensive Tissue Repair Creme--Combines patented copper peptide skin health technology in a soothing base formulation for enhanced healing after microdermabrasion, laser resurfacing, chemical peels, dermabrasion and hair removal. Helps eliminate crusting and scabbing, relieves itching and tightness, maintains optimal skin hydration and promotes optimal healing environment.

-- Complex Cu3(R) Post-Laser Lotion--Step-down option from Complex Cu3(R) Intensive Tissue Repair Creme. This lightweight moisturizing lotion provides skin with copper micronutrition and soothes and protects tender skin by helping retain moisture. Ideal under camouflage makeup, this lotion can also be used after chemical peels and dermabrasion.

-- Ti-Silc(R) Sheer SPF 45--A water resistant sunblock that provides protection from the sun's harmful rays while moisturizing the skin. Ti-Silc(R) Sheer contains safety coated micronized titanium dioxide which provides a physical block against UV radiation. Ideal for post-laser and post-procedure sun protection, this sweat-proof product is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts.

"Clinics that perform XTRAC laser treatments have a clear interest in ensuring the best possible outcome for their patients. Our XTRAC Laser Post-Procedure Kit is a powerful new step in that process," said Jeff O'Donnell, President & CEO of PhotoMedex. "Patients undergoing laser treatments or non-invasive and invasive microdermabrasion want to comfort their skin and return to normal activity as soon as possible. This kit is a holistic regimen that will not only improve a patient's recovery, but also help generate a more positive overall treatment experience."

PhotoMedex' XTRAC Laser Post-Procedure Kit is expected to further strengthen the acceptance and appeal of the company's XTRAC Excimer Laser. XTRAC provides new hope to individuals suffering from psoriasis, vitiligo and other skin conditions. It delivers a carefully focused beam of laser light on psoriasis lesions, delivering high doses necessary for rapid clearing while minimizing exposure of healthy skin to ultraviolet rays.

PhotoMedex XTRAC Laser Post-Procedure Kits are available exclusively from PhotoMedex. For full details including pricing and ordering information, call 1-877-44-XTRAC or email cust@photomedex.com.
