How we review

Modalyze is an independent guide for clinic owners weighing up a big purchase. We dig into manufacturer specs, published studies and conversations with people who actually run these machines — then write it up in plain English.

What we cover

Professional devices used in dermatology, plastic surgery and med spas — sorted by device type (laser, RF, ultrasound, cryolipolysis, IPL, microneedling, EMS, plasma, LED, injectables), by the technology inside them, and by the treatments they're used for.

What we look at

• Does it work? Published studies and real-world results.
• Does it pay off? Upfront cost, consumables, treatment time and staffing.
• Is it approved? FDA clearances, CE marking and what it's actually cleared for.
• How flexible is it? How many treatments one platform can handle.

Being upfront

We'll add affiliate links with manufacturers and distributors down the line. Anything sponsored or affiliate-based will be clearly labelled, and our write-ups stay independent of any commercial deal. Nothing here is medical advice.
