Customer Testimonials

I think Lynton are a fantastic company and your customer service is the reason I came back to you again to buy the EXCELIGHT®. Our Business Development Consultant was fantastic and went out of her way for us by getting us a trolley for the system the same day. Janet (Clinical Trainer) is an excellent trainer. Both I and my husband, who is a doctor at the clinic, found her to be very professional. This training was a refresher for us both. The engineer who delivered the EXCELIGHT® was very helpful and was able to help us on site - the servicing of our lasers with you has always been very good. The results I have had with both my LUMINA and EXCELIGHT® have been outstanding, which is exactly what you need in a medic-lead clinic. Very happy! Score 10/10.  

Marsh Medical Skin Clinic – Huddersfield

I've been working with various types of laser at my clinic for many years now. The most highly sought-after treatments are undoubtedly those for the aesthetic sector. For this reason, I believe that the new Motus AY system is a truly ground-breaking initiative for our sector. Motus AY is a compact low-cost system, yet it also has enormous potential. While the Moveo technology of the Motus AX system revolutionised the field of assisted laser epilation, now Nd:YAG has gone one step further, extending the range of possible treatments to all patients wanting to remove vascular blemishes from their face and legs. It’s the ideal system for professionals wanting to move into the world of laser, because with a relatively minor investment the medical centre can be equipped with a high-performance system and a broad range of treatments. It is also useful for centres with high demand for epilation and vascular treatments and which want to offer more patient treatments to increase their turnover.

Addressing pigmentation irregularities, skin rejuvenation, tightening and resurfacing in the case of acne scars or post-cosmetic surgery scarring like tummy tuck scars, stretch marks, and so on with the help of the revolutionary and innovative DEKA lasers, namely the DEKA SmartXide Touch and DEKA MonaLisa Touch CO2 technologies which have proved to ensure excellent cosmetic results. With the help of the MonaLisa Touch CO2 laser, women facing intimate conditions can also find a solution in treating various genital issues in a non-surgical and painless manner, benefiting from a quick recovery and no downtime.

Eve Clinics

"In the short time that we have been using the 3JUVE the clinical results we have achieved have been outstanding, especially with the 585 IPL for broken veins and rosacea. The Er: YAG resurface handpiece has also been proving beneficial as it’s not too aggressive for our clients and they can remain comfortable whilst treatments are being carried out. Furthermore, for such impressive results we are blown away by how quick the actual treatments are which is maximising our profit-making potential through the 3JUVE treatments. Overall, we are delighted with our results so far and even more delighted with how happy our patients have been with their results." Dr Askari Townshend, Medical Director of ASKINOLOGY ASKINOLOGY Case Study

Clarachelle

The most sophisticated laser addition to my clinic yet! This ResurFACE® laser is easy to use and it is brilliant for resurfacing, stretch marks, acne scars, wrinkles, pigmentation. Downtime is minimal and it is very well tolerated. Clients re-book because they love the results.

Sally O’Donnell, Aesthetic Laser Clinic

“I put the success of my 15-year-old business almost entirely down to my Lynton LUMINA®. Without stunning results, you have no business. Equipment and the clinical and servicing support behind it is EVERYTHING, no compromise. If nothing but the best will do, you want to be working with Lynton.”

Kerry Belba, Director, Laser Skin Solutions

"Fabulous qualification delivered by first class experts. Thoroughly enjoyed the Level 4 when I did it."

Skin Happy Me, Skin Happy Me

We absolutely love the INITIA Diode laser. The flexible operating modes have been a real advantage to our wide range of diverse customers. I've been quite pleasantly surprised at the Clinical End Points we have achieved with the INITIA. Our clients who had previously been treated with the YAG have found improved result with the INITIA. We have also had a lot of success with resistant or deep follicles that had struggled to get a result with an Alexandrite laser. It has really given our medical grade Alex/YAG laser a run for its money! The INITIA diode also operates extremely fast, which is an advantage to both the clients and the clinic! We are also really happy with the small size of the unit and the integrated cooling. we wheel it around quite easily and it's very sturdy, well-built and responsive.  

Skintelligence

DEKA is the leading CO2 laser technology company in the world and I believe the best in the business at making a CO2 laser. SmartXide’s advanced engineering offers low downtime or traditional high downtime treatment – giving us more flexibility to better suit our patients’ needs.

Dr Emil Tanghetti, Board Certified Dermatologist, Center for Dermatology and Laser Surgery

"Thank You Lynton appreciate all your help."

Expansion of Premises to Facilitate Entry into Export Markets

To facilitate its entry into new export markets, Lynton Lasers Ltd required increased manufacturing space, as well as new demonstration and training facilities. To this end, LEADER Funding was applied for, and won, to support the refurbishment of an adjacent business unit (Unit 9d) as well as the re-arrangement and refurbishment of the existing business unit (Unit 6) on Holmes Chapel Business Park.

This Project was part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development
