uch as deep wrinkles and unwanted pigment, Dr. Waibel discovered that this system could also be used to treat burn scars. The UltraPulse laser uses two different methods of treating the skin as well as a unique delivery to stimulate new collagen growth, lighten dark colors on the scar and remove some of the scar tissue.

"We literally take the scar out, and as a result new collagen is stimulated and formed. We not only improve the scar -- we create new healthy skin where there was a scar," explained Dr. Waibel. "We are able to treat scars that we were never able to treat before."

"Lumenis is excited to support the triplets' treatments along with Dr. Waibel's exciting work in scar revision, but most importantly to provide hope for Chandra, Trae and Jordan where they had no options before," stated Mr. Dov Ofer, CEO of Lumenis. "The company is grateful for the significant efforts of all of the physicians and nurses at the Palm Beach Aesthetic Dermatology & Laser Center especially that of Dr. Waibel and Dr. Kenneth Beer its founder".

"The significant improvement in the appearance of the triplets' scars has generated profound interest in using UltraPulse technology in improving the quality of life for burn survivors around the globe. The treatment offers hope for many since it is far less traumatic than traditional surgical revision of scars, results can be seen within a few weeks and the skin continues to improve for up to six months following treatment," added Mr. Robert Mann, SVP and General Manager of Lumenis Aesthetic Business.

Motivated to share their success with others, Chandra, Trae and Jordan have also started a foundation to help burn survivors cover the cost of their treatments which is called "Three For Hope" (read more about the Berns Triplets www.bernstriplets.com and the Ultrapulse treatments featur
