Lasers & Aesthetic Devices

Beyond lasers and light-based platforms, technologies now include fractional, monopolar, and synchronised radiofrequency, targeted ultrasound, and high-intensity electrical stimulation methods such as HIFES and HIFEM+. These modalities are studied for the way they deliver controlled energy into skin and underlying tissues, and research continues to explore how they interact with collagen, vascular structures, and muscle to influence overall skin quality and appearance.

Within lasers themselves, different approaches are used depending on the clinical context. Ablative lasers remove very fine layers at the surface of the skin to encourage renewal, while non-ablative lasers heat targeted layers beneath the surface without removing tissue, stimulating dermal activity such as collagen production and vascular change. Other energy-based devices, including radiofrequency and ultrasound, use heat or mechanical energy in different ways to create controlled responses in the skin. Some of these technologies are also being studied for applications in body contouring, particularly where they can stimulate muscle or selectively heat fat.

At Avery Aesthetics, a range of devices are used, including laser platforms and radiofrequency- and ultrasound-based technologies. These include systems developed by companies such as Sciton and BTL Aesthetics, which have produced devices studied for their effects on skin quality, collagen support, and, in some cases, muscle and body contouring. The following pages provide more detail about each technology, how it works, and the factors considered when discussing suitability in consultation.
