Research and development for innovation

In recent years, the body shaping industry has witnessed major advances in research and development. The Group has introduced to the market the world’s first system, based on the emission of specific microwaves, capable of acting on cellulite, fat deposits, and skin laxity, reducing subcutaneous fat with a non-invasive treatment.

Next we presented a new system for fat reduction that uses an electromagnetic field to stimulate muscle tissue contraction, enabling the reduction of localised fat, increasing muscle tone, and improving postural appearance.

In addition to these innovations, the Group has continuously invested in research and development in the area of targeted removal of fat deposits using the laser lipolysis technique. This minimally invasive treatment is able to treat specific areas of the body, even the most delicate ones, avoiding the need for traditional liposuction.

CO2 laser treatment is the ideal non-surgical and drug-free solution to address vulvovaginal atrophy, characterised by a deficit of nutrition and hydration of the vaginal mucosa cells. This problem can cause constant dryness, burning and discomfort, negatively affecting the patients’ personal relationships and confidence. Such symptoms may result from the genitourinary syndrome of the menopause, whether natural or induced by cancer therapies, or from post-partum hypo-estrogenisation.

Our “Monnalisa Touch” procedure for the treatment of vulvovaginal atrophy can be performed directly inside the vaginal canal, thanks to a motorised system that performs the advancement and rotation movements usually performed manually by the operator.

We continue to invest in the study, development, and design of systems for the treatment of urinary tract stones and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

For urinary incontinence and chronic pelvic pain syndrome, we offer electromagnetic stimulation treatments that produce tangible benefits in re-educating the pelvic floor muscles.

In the field of dermatological applications, as in all other sectors in which El.En. Group operates, research and development are constant. Our systems bring significant benefits and improvements to patient well-being and we are continually researching new applications or improvements in the interaction and direct and selective stimulation of collagen.

Thanks to laser technology, we can eliminate major imperfections, including hirsutism, angiomas, acne, rosacea, psoriasis, large scars, and more. In addition, we have recently launched innovative systems for tattoo removal: by using laser, the tattoo ink particles are broken up and removed by the lymphatic system in the weeks following the treatment, preserving tissue integrity. In some regions of the eastern hemisphere, this technology is also used to remove benign pigmented lesions that also affect these phototypes.

In the laser hair removal sector, we constantly devote resources to research and development in order to improve our products in terms of treatment speed and safety. We have engineered and produced systems that have increased performance: our lasers are able to treat even very fine, light hairs on any type of skin, including darker or tanned skin. Moreover, treatments are quick, satisfying both the needs of customers, who often have little time, and those of the professionals, who maximise their return on investment through the efficiency of the devices.

We use the same devices, thanks to special pulses, to optimise the effectiveness of treatments while minimising any discomfort. This is particularly relevant for the treatment of vascular lesions, which is a potentially crucial additional application.

Thanks to the research and development conducted by El.En. Group, we are at the forefront of laser sources in Europe, with a power output of up to 40 kW, perfect for cutting metals even of considerable thickness. In order to ensure high performance and simple, intuitive operation, we develop state-of-the-art front-end software. In addition, we design and manufacture customised hardware components for fibre laser systems, adapting to different requirements.

The reconfigurability of the processes, by reprogramming dedicated software, makes for significant savings on ancillary equipment. This means that there is no need to use different moulds or specific material parts for different processes. In addition, laser processing does not involve the addition of polluting materials and the fumes produced contain no chemical additives.”

El.En. Group produces laser systems for the design and manufacture of die-cuts, each of which can differ significantly depending on the specific application and the type of cardboard to be die-cut. The use of laser systems for these processes offers significant advantages in terms of sustainability, as the precise cutting of materials reduces waste.

Laser marking systems make it possible to perform perforations, tone gradients, or selective removal of material thickness, minimising waste. Since the laser does not come into contact with the material, there is no risk of accidental deformation or breakage. These laser systems are digitally controlled by software and operate with precise movements and cuts. Furthermore, in the context of marking, they make it possible to avoid the use of inks and solvents on textiles, leather, paper, or plastic, thus eliminating the need to dispose of them.

Our constant research and development has enabled us to introduce the most advanced laser technology into the textile industry, particularly in the area of jeans, revolutionising the approach to processing. We have developed a laser cutting and marking system that makes it possible to simultaneously cut and bleach the fabric, thus overcoming the limitations of traditional production methods. This technological process offers a fast, precise and environmentally friendly way of working, as it does not require the use of chemicals for bleaching and produces no polluting waste.
