    Elixir MD

    Elevate your surgical plan

    At 111 Harley St. we go beyond the surgery to create our Complete Care Plans that incorporate technologies, treatments and products to ensure the very best outcomes. The Elixir MD is a patented, FDA-cleared, medical-grade device developed exclusively for Plastic Surgeons to elevate patient care by expediting the healing experience. As our Surgical Nurse often says, ‘surgery is the easy part, it’s the recovery that requires patience’. Now, this isn’t an issue, thanks to the advanced photobiomodulation technology that the Elixir MD employs.

    Specific light waves are emitted to stimulate cellular repair, targeting various tissue layers to promote faster healing and reduce inflammation. Created specifically for professional use on highly-sensitive skin following surgery, this treatment will make your recovery more comfortable and your surgical journey as smooth as possible.

    The individual wavelengths have been carefully calibrated to penetrate the skin at different depths, enhancing the various healing mechanisms. The deeper wavelengths are able to stimulate cellular repair and encourage tissue regeneration, whilst wavelengths at surface level reduce redness and swelling.

     

    ✓ Superior care

    ✓ Significantly accelerates the healing process

    ✓ Minimises bruising, swelling and redness

    ✓ Reduces pain and discomfort

    ✓ Tailored protocols to ensure every step of your surgical journey is enhanced

    ✓ Enhanced cellular repair and tissue regeneration

    ✓ Smoother recovery, with less discomfort and quicker healing

     

    The Elixir MD device has a series of different protocols developed with plastic surgery patients in mind. Each has been designed to ensure each step of your journey at 111 Harley St. is tailored to achieving the best surgical outcome. By harnessing different light wavelengths and targeting cellular responses, Elixir can be implemented ahead of surgery, and post-op during recovery to enhance your results. Once recovered, it is an ideal maintenance treatment, to give you the results you’ve always wanted.

    The Pre-Op Protocol

    Detox™ emits a blue-light to reduce bacterial load, such as oils, toxins and secretions. This is essential part of the preparation stage, where the subcutaneous tissue in the skin is fortified ahead of surgery. Typically, a single 20-minute treatment is required to prepare the skin effectively.

    How does this work?

    Elixir’s Detox™ therapy utilises intense and focused blue PBM energy at a wavelength of 417nm and works on several key biological process: primarily targeting the skin’s harmful bacteria and sebaceous glands.

    The biggest benefits:

    ✓ Emits a broad-spectrum, anti-microbial and anti-bacterial effect to minimise infection risk and promote healthy skin microflora.

    ✓ Shrinks sebocytes, the name of the secretions made from the sebaceous glands, to reduce gland activity and regulate oil production for clearer and cleaner skin.

    ✓ Reduces post-surgical infection

    ✓ Promotes healthier skin for a smoother recovery

    The Post-Operative Protocol

    Cellular Repair™ utilises an intense, focused yellow light (599nm) for post-operative healing. It works to reduce bruising and swelling, as well as initiate lymphatic system drainage. Typically, five 20-minutes treatments are required for optimum effect.

    How does this work?

    Elixir Cellular™ uses a 599nm light to promote tissue repair, reduce inflammation, bruising, swelling and improve overall skin recovery after surgery. The light is able to penetrate 0.5-2mm into the skin, where it is then absorbed by chromophores in the cell membranes. This stimulates biochemical reactions that promote tissue repair without causing thermal damage.

    The biggest benefits are:

    ✓ Activates lymphatic drainage and detoxification as the light works to stimulate muscle contraction in the lymphatic vessels, leading to a removal of toxins and any edema (swelling).

    ✓ Pro-inflammatory cytokines are decreased, meaning bruising and swelling are also lessened

    ✓ Enhanced tissue repair through collagen synthesis

    ✓ Promotes faster recovery with improved skin quality and elasticity

     

    The Maintenance Protocol

    Only one, 20 minute treatment is needed to enhance aesthetic result.

    This function has been designed to improve skin elasticity and firmness, and helps you to be able to visualise your final result more quickly – as this treatment actively works on stimulating the lymphatic system to eliminate toxins and swelling. Additionally, it works to promote your body’s natural antioxidant defences, so expect your skin to be fortified and flooded with antioxidants.

    There are three maintenance options to choose from, based on your skin’s phototype. These are:

    For patients with light skin, Fitzpatrick Scale types 1-3 – NeoXcell™.

    NeoXcell™ combines yellow and red light therapy (one being the Cellular™’s 599 light wave and 633nm light waves) for comprehensive skin rejuvenation.

    This combined approach means that as the Cellular™ light activates the lymphatic system to reduce swelling and allow the red light to penetrate deeper into the skin, to promote fibroblast, blood and lymphatic circulation activities which, in turn, encourage collagen production.

    Other benefits include:

    ✓ Reduced pigmentation

    ✓ Improvement to skin tone, elasticity and aesthetic outcomes

     

    For patients with darker skin, Fitzpatrick Scale 4-6 – RoXium

    RoXium™ combines Detox™’s blue light (417nn) with Cellular™’s yellow light (599nm) to create a synergistic treatment that targets oxidative stress and optimises the skin’s health for ideal recovery leading to the best results.

    Other benefits include:

    ✓ Enhanced healing with reduced inflammation

    ✓ Advanced antioxidant defences against oxidatve stress

    ✓ Minimises post-op breakouts and excess oil production

    ✓ Supports lymphatic detox and clear skin texture

    ✓ Reduces the risk of post-operative infections

    For Breast Surgery Patients – NeoTrix

    NeoTrix™ has been designed exclusively for those who are undergoing breast surgery including Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift and Breast Reduction procedures.

    Red and blue light is used to complement and double the benefits of NeoTrix™ treatments where you can expect faster healing, better infection control and reduced inflammation. This is a protocol created specifically for Breast Surgeries using light wavelengths at 633nm and 10nm with 417nm and 10nm for the most advantageous treatment outcome.

    Other benefits include:

    ✓ Combines anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory and regenerate effects for superior healing

    ✓ Boosts collagen production and supports skin matrix repair

    ✓ Controls sebum to reduce post-operative breakouts

    ✓ Can support healthy capsule formation and may reduce the risk of capsular contracture through microbial control and regulated collagen synthesis

    Reduces downtime by up to 70%, as confirmed in clinical trials on red light therapy used during post-surgical healing phase.

    ✓ Rebuilds the dermal matrix, preventing fibrotic, irregular scarring
