PALO ALTO, CA (PRWEB) June 21, 2005 -- Five people who turn 50 in 2005 will
be selected for free Fraxel Laser Treatment (a $5,000 value), plus a trip to New
York City to celebrate their 50th birthday in style, as Reliant Technologies
Inc. marks the Fraxel laser’s recent U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
510(k) clearance for skin resurfacing procedures.
Fraxel Laser Treatment
(FLT) is the latest beauty breakthrough to help restore aging and sun-damaged
skin – pixel by pixel, spot by spot. It is the only laser device specially
designed to resurface a fraction of skin at a time, reducing downtime and
maximizing patient safety. Best of all, FLT offers rapid results – most patients
report that they have softer, smoother and better toned skin, with cumulative
improvement that creates a more healthy, vibrant and youthful appearance in as
few as four to eight weeks.
Reliant encourages men and women who turn 50
anytime in 2005 to enter the contest by logging on to www.fraxel.com/5040.
Qualified applicants* will receive a complimentary certificate good for a free
consultation (a $100 value) in their geographic area. The top five finalists**
as determined by a panel of cosmetic physician specialists and skin health
experts will receive free Fraxel Laser Treatment in their area, along with
hometown birthday festivities for friends and family. Later this year, they will
be flown to New York City for a 50th birthday celebration of their more youthful
appearance and the “Make 50 the New 40 with Fraxel Laser Treatment” campaign.
Applications must be received by Friday, July 15, 2005 at 5 p.m. PDT.
The national spokeswoman for the “Make 50 the New 40 with Fraxel Laser
Treatment” campaign is Sandie Harvey of Las Vegas, Nevada. A convergence of life
changes two years ago prompted Harvey, now 52 years old, to seek Fraxel Laser
Treatment to improve her appearance by reducing the periorbital fine lines and
sun damage that are an unfortunate byproduct of aging. She also wanted her skin
to look firm and tight – in synch with her fit, healthy body.
Harvey had
five treatments of her face and one of her neck over a period of a couple of
months. The Fraxel treatments resulted in an overall resurfacing of her skin
texture and reduction of fine lines around her eyes. “It was like my skin went
from burlap to silk,” she says. “A few days later, people were asking, what’s
different, what have you done, did you get your hair colored?”
“Fraxel
laser treatment is the ideal solution for vitality-minded men and women who want
to recapture their youthful yet natural appearance without interrupting their
busy lives,” said Dennis E. Condon, CEO of Reliant Technologies. “We’re excited
to present five winners the opportunity to experience first-hand how Fraxel
laser allows their physician to confidently and safely resurface photo damaged
skin so they can begin to look as young as they feel. That’s the beauty of our
‘Make 50 the New 40’ campaign.”
*Qualified applicants must be U.S.
citizens living in the continental U.S. who turn fifty (50) years of age at any
time during the 2005 calendar year.
**Finalists must be able to travel in
November 2005 to New York City from their nearest major airport. Complete
eligibility requirements can be found at www.fraxel.com/5040.
