The Power of Cynosure Lutronic – an Interview with Cathy Dierckxsens

We recently sat down with Cathy Dierckxsens, a cosmetic dermatologist and the owner of Amelio Clinic in Belgium.

In our conversation with Cathy, she provided a sneak peek into her talk on skin rejuvenation at the Cynosure Lutronic European Laser Symposium in Croatia. For the full interview please head over to our website.

What’s your background?

“I studied medicine at the Free University of Brussels and specialised in dermatology. That’s where my passion for skin and aesthetic skin treatments arose. As I became increasingly interested in aesthetic treatments, I wanted to learn more and obtained an additional degree in Aesthetic & Laser Dermatology Procedures from the University of Versailles in France.”

Cathy is clearly passionate about her work, going as far as getting a second degree!

“I started a private dermatology practice in Brussels over 20 years ago and recently I founded Amelio Clinic, a dermatology, aesthetics and laser clinic. I am passionate about my job as cosmetic dermatologist, and love to combine skin care, injections and different laser treatments to optimise treatment outcomes.”

She loves to read, travel, kitesurf and dive – a busy life; it’s a wonder she can make time for her friends, family and, let’s not forget, her two cats!

What Cynosure Lutronic devices do you use?

The Amelio Clinic has a wide variety of Cynosure Lutronic devices, including:

DermaV

The DermaV is the future of vascular and pigment treatments.

Dr Dierckxsens describes the DermaV as a “great, innovative and versatile vascular laser, covering all vascular indications, including more difficult ones, such as PWS, but also pigment treatment and skin rejuvenation. It has innovative features, such as the variable pulse modes, cryogen cooling, and the fact that it can be used as a PDL; all this without the inconveniences of a dye laser.”

The DermaV is a long-pulsed 532n KTP & 1,064nm Nd:YAG Laser which uses the latest technology, such as cryogen cooling, variable sequential pulsing technology, and real-time temperature sensing.

“What I like about DermaV is how easy and fast vascular treatments are done due to the large spot sizes used, its safety because of the adaptable cryogen cooling and its effectiveness, giving a high degree of doctor and patient satisfaction.”

Genius MRF

Next up, the Genius MRF, a skin tightening device that helps with the regeneration of collagen and elastin.

“It’s a great skin tightening device to use on face and body indications.

I like the genius as it is the only microneedling RF device that has impedance control during the entire pulse and gives feedback on pulse quality, allowing the generation of consistent coagulation volumes and guaranteeing efficacy.”

The Genius MRF works by allowing the volume of dermal coagulation to be controlled, all while protecting the epidermis and the epidermal junction from thermal damage. This helps the skin regain its volume and tone.

 What will you be discussing at the European Laser Symposium?

“I will talk about combining techniques to improve outcomes in skin rejuvenation, like the combination of Genius and Ultra, and how I combine the Genius MRF treatments with Radiesse injections for additional bio stimulation.”

Dr Dierckxsens is leading the way in cutting-edge aesthetics treatments; it’s amazing to learn how she uses her Cynosure Lutronic devices, helping to improve the lives, health and confidence of her patients on a daily basis.

We want to extend a huge thank you to Dr Cathy Dierckxsens for taking the time to answer our questions. It was a pleasure talking to her and learning about the amazing work that goes on at the Amelio Clinic.
