The history of Energist Medical Group Energist Ltd, based in Swansea, South Wales, UK, was founded in 1999 and quickly became a leader in Pulsed Light (IPL) systems based around its unique VPL variable pulsed light technology. Energist expanded rapidly between 2002 and 2008, growing a worldwide distribution base and significant sales in SE Asia, Europe, Middle East and North America, focused on its Ultra VPL and LED technologies. In 2008 the company opened its Energist North America office, in order to support the large established VPL user base and further expand into the largest single aesthetic procedure market in the world. In 2009 Energist Medical Group acquired the iPulse™ brand of Pulsed Light systems from UK manufacturer Cyden Ltd, giving Energist the most comprehensive range of IPL Intense Pulsed Light systems in the industry. These 'ePulse' IPL systems are now manufactured at Energist Ltd, Swansea. 2009 also saw Energist Group acquire Copenhagen-based MedArt, a high end laser manufacturing company with nearly 30 years experience in the market. With this expansion into the laser business, Energist Medical Group is fast becoming a dominant equipment supplier within the aesthetic sector. In November 2010 Energist acquired the Portrait™ technology with its unique nitrogen plasma skin regeneration PSR technology, which Energist has redeveloped to produce the newly launched NeoGen™ PSR system. Energist now has a broad base of technologies: Pulsed Light, Laser and Plasma, addressing broad applications in the medical and beauty markets. In August 2013 the first production model NeoGen™ Plasma System left the Swansea production line. This unique and sought after technology is set to revolutionise the aesthetic treatment industry, and is already gaining popularity with installations in UK, Europe and Asian markets.
