“Even deep wrinkles responded to a single pass...and skin texture is improved by more than 50%...The degree of collagen remodeling is striking.”
Richard Fitzpatrick, M.D.
La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Center

“When treating perioral and periorbital areas we're seeing 50-70% improvement in wrinkles...we've also observed about 10-15% tightening in a post-auricular clinical study. Portrait®PSR³ is a more predictable way of improving wrinkle lines and damaged skin.”

“There's a lot of research on the device and what happens to patients over time.”

“The epidermis stays intact and a new one grows underneath...it's the healing response you get with a wound but without a wound…the thermal depth of effect is significant: 500-600 microns at high-energy settings.”
Eric Bernstein, M.D.
Director of Laser Surgery and Cosmetic Dermatology Centers, Inc. of New Jersey and Pennsylvania
“...It has proven to be a very effective minimal invasive approach to facial wrinkles with many facets of application...Likewise it is the only technology that I am aware of that allows for safe regional (periorbital and perioral rejuvenation) without color mismatch…”

“Portrait® delivers impressive results with a shorter healing time and decreased likelihood of untoward effects compared to CO2…I am incorporating Portrait® treatments concurrent with aesthetic facial surgery.”

“…It creates beautiful skin without the issues of prolonged erythema, pigmentation changes or other side effects we have seen with CO2 and deep chemical peel treatments. Our patients have been happy with their results and have referred their friends for treatment.”

“… Unlike lasers and most "new" technology the results are already proven by the clinical studies and are not just hype…I am generally very skeptical of manufacturer's claims and promises, however, where other companies have made false promises, Rhytec has delivered.”

“Rhytec Portrait Skin Resurfacing uniquely fills a specific niche in my practice. Rhytec Portrait PSR reliably achieves results approaching laser skin resurfacing with less downtime. It is ideal for the patient who demands more than a peel can afford, but refuses the recovery and downtime associated with laser skin resurfacing.”
Ross Clevens, M.D., F.A.C.S.

"Congratulations on designing, building and continuing to improve a significant advancement to resurfacing technology. I appreciate it, and so do my nurses (much less work/cleaning/phone support) and my patients who are happy, smooth, tight and normally pigmented after a minimum of down-time and discomfort."
Ed Zimmerman, M.D.
Las Vegas, NV
"...It is the best lower lid results I have seen (short of CO2)."
Benjamin Marcus, M.D.

"I added Portrait® to my practice because it offers a new treatment option and benefits not available with other technologies at this time. It also offers an option for non-makeup wearers, the male patient, and the younger patient.
I find with the appropriate counseling and expectations for the procedure, the majority are pleased.
I offer Portrait® to every patient (skin type appropriate), seeking skin care improvement. Once I determine their goals, I then direct them to the best option to treat their condition. Clinical results at times appear as good as ablative resurfacing (i.e. CO2)."
