North American aesthetics company Cartessa Aesthetics, has launched Prisma in Canada, an Intense Pulsed Light system previously only approved in the US.
PRISMA is the first IPL plus electro-muscle stimulation (EMS) and radiofrequency (RF) technology. Manufactured by DEKA, Prisma offers the best in IPL advancements and the ability to go beyond discoloration to treat the other leading signs of aging, inelasticity and reduction in muscle tone. Prisma is the first IPL device to be added to Cartessa’s elite portfolio of products. “While we know IPL is a cornerstone treatment for our providers, we waited for a device that offered the absolute best in IPL versatility and comfort. PRISMA met our standards and with the added modalities, is positioned to redefine ‘photofacials’ as the market knows them,” shared Gabe Lubin, Cartessa Founder, Principal and Board Chairperson.
Prisma was first introduced in the US in the fall of 2024. Providers have chosen to replace other IPL systems with Prisma because of its superior ability to clear pigmentation and vascularity and the addition of non-invasive modalities that offer more customization and flexibility. Another key advancement is that Prisma treatments are more comfortable than other IPL systems, so patients benefit from a better overall experience.
Prisma joins Cartessa’s existing Canada-approved offerings, including Everesse and Ultraformer MPT for non-invasive skin tightening and lifting; skin resurfacing devices, TetraPro CO2 with CoolPeel and HELIX; pain-free hair removal device, Motus AZ+ and ONDA PRO, the latest evolution of Coolwaves® technology.
