PhotoMedex extends Omnilux photodynamic therapy line in US

PhotoMedex, a provider of proprietary excimer laser systems and science based skin care products, has extended its therapeutic product offerings to US dermatologists in anticipation of its planned acquisition of Photo Therapeutics. The proposed acquisition is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2008.

The Omnilux product line – Omnilux Blue, Omnilux Plus and Omnilux Revive – provide physicians with new choices for the treatment of acne, ocular wrinkles, wound therapy and other conditions.

PhotoMedex has entered into a distribution agreement with Photo Therapeutics, a provider of light-emitting diode (LED) technology and the maker of the Omnilux line of products utilizing narrowband LED technology.

Under the agreement, the Omnilux products will be sold by PhotoMedex’s direct sales organization to dermatologists and plastic surgeons in the US. PhotoMedex and Photo Therapeutics products are available directly from PhotoMedex.

Jeff Donnell, president and CEO of PhotoMedex, said: “Photo Therapeutics products will complement our current product lines and expand our product offering. With our established sales force, we are well positioned to immediately and aggressively market these new products.”
