acne with Omnilux(TM) Blue", said Sue D'Arcy, President and Chief Executive
Officer of Photo Therapeutics, Inc. "To date, we have worked in the USA
through partner companies but have now judged that the time is right for a
direct presence in this, the largest market in the world for medical and
aesthetic devices."

therapeutic light devices with a clinically proven, safe and cost effective
