PhotoMedex made the strategic decision to consolidate the corporate websites of both Procyte (www.procyte.com) and Surgical Laser Technologies (www.slti.com) under the PhotoMedex umbrella to offer doctors, patients and investors a clear, complete view of the company's offering in the areas of dermatology lasers, therapeutic skin, hair and wound care products and surgical products & services.

"Over the past few years, PhotoMedex has greatly expanded its product offering. One of the challenges of growing at a fast pace is accurately presenting to the public who we are, what we do and what we have to offer," said Jeffrey O'Donnell, president and chief executive officer. "This new website accurately reflects our company image and provides clear information on our full line of products and services."
