You might have to pay several hundred dollars to get the skin treatments regularly. However, we’re past the days when you had to make a reservation at an aesthetic spa or professional clinic to create visibly brighter, plumper, and bouncier skin. If you are looking for a cost-effective and time-saving way to improve skin texture, and reduce signs of aging, you can get it all done at home using the ‘IPLA’ which is developed by NC Techron in South Korea.

As people around the globe stay at home during the current health crisis, consumers are seeking more delicate support from beauty devices to aid their skincare routines and beauty tech is more widely used and adopted for better personal care. Beauty device manufacturers continuously struggle to develop more sophisticated and innovative beauty products in response to the increasing consumer demand for advanced skincare and haircare solutions. Above all, the ‘IPLA’, a new and highly developed device, recently hit the scene. The ‘IPLA’ is a revolution in skincare technology, helping you to achieve relaxed muscles while lifting and firming skin without difficulty. You can take care of your skin safely and easily by using the functions of the device; Plasma and IPL.

The plasma is a fourth state of matter in which electrons are stripped from atoms to form an ionized gas. The ‘IPLA’ utilizes a soft plasma – low temperature atmospheric pressure plasma with low risk of skin damage and irritation – to promote regeneration of aging skin. As ions and radicals, provided by plasma, activate fibrous cells by promoting the cell-generated cycle, collagen production is also facilitated by fibroblast cells. It also results in skin wellness, anti-aging, ingredient penetration and skin purification.

You also have to pay attention to another function of the device; the IPL, a type of light therapy which stands for intense pulsed light. You can use IPL to minimize or remove wrinkles and spots such as age spots, sun damage, freckles, birthmarks and to mitigate skin tone. The technology was widely used in the aesthetic and medical field for the reduction of fine lines and skin laxity. The ‘IPLA’ is so groundbreaking that it lets consumers experiment with these two technologies at home. It can be incorporated easily and safely into your daily at-home beauty routine.

Based on the experience in developing many hospital medical devices and automatic control systems, the NC Techron has established its own technical skills such as software development, instrument design, and product design. The company is also equipped with fully-fledged capabilities in developing products and CEO Jang always puts his efforts to develop more innovative and reliable products with his own know-how.

The global launch of ‘IPLA’, an elaborate beauty device, is just around the corner. The ‘IPLA’ can be a cost-effective solution to get this effect as compared to conventional, surgical beauty treatments. By letting the ‘IPLA’ into your house, you can treat your skin more comfortably and with minimal skin invasion and fewer side-effects. CEO Jang is looking forward to meeting global partners for far-sighted collaboration.

Everyone wants flawless skin, but very few can afford the time and money that dermatology clinic appointments require. IPLA is a state-of-the-art skincare device that offers a perfect solution for this. For only 10 minutes a day, its users can enjoy immediately improved skin health, texture, and tone.

IPLA is the latest creation of N.C. Techron, a company with an established reputation for caring about consumer safety and user convenience. The company started off as a manufacturer of medical devices for hospitals. Now, the very same team of people has gathered to create high-tech beauty devices that are just as safe and reliable. This includes IPLA, which has already passed more than 3 tests to verify its safety.

N.C. Techron has designed IPLA to be a 2-in-1 device. It combines IPL and plasma technology into a single, user-friendly gadget. Plasma is the technology that transmits strong light to inactivate microbial pathogens and reduce harmful bacteria. It is effective for such skin disorders as acne and atopic eczema. IPL (Intense Pulse Light), on the other hand, works to enhance skin color and texture without surgery. It is effective for blemishes and pigmented scars.

With the two technologies combined, IPLA can replicate a full clinical skincare experience for its users, in the comfort of their own home. IPLA can cure their skin of various conditions and also treat the remaining blemishes and scars. Of course, the two functions can be used separately as well. IPLA provides perfect comfort not only in its functions, but also in its designs. It is very light, only 200g with all the functions. Its design is very easy to grab.

IPLA is safe to use on any skin, including such sensitive areas as the inside of an arm. This means users can enjoy a full-body skin enhancement experience, which no other at-home devices can provide at present. Also,IPLA has a 3-level strength control function. Users can choose the adequate level for their skin. The red light that helps to calm and soothe the skin is activated automatically while using IPLA.

IPLA can be used permanently, so long as the IPL cartridge is replaced from time to time. Each cartridge costs only $20 and has an impressive lifespan of 5,000 flashes. This translates to 3 months of daily use for an average user.

Young-Jin Jang, the CEO of N.C Techron, continues to listen to customers’ opinions. He has upgraded the design of the entire device to deliver even greater convenience to its users. Jang defines the upgraded version as perfection. He plans to sell IPLA overseas. Sampling has already begun in Vietnam. Starting with Vietnam, Jang and his company are eager to expand their reach to the international market – and they are ready for it.

Tech firms showcased their latest gadgets at the MWC, which kicked off with the keynote speaker SoftBank Group chief executive Masayoshi Son saying, “Artificial intelligence will be smarter than the human brain within 30 years.”

LG Electronics moved into the limelight at this year’s tech event by outpacing its rival Samsung in revealing its newest smartphone G6, the first non-Google phone to support the Google Assistant, an AI-based voice assistant.

With the adoption of machine learning — the ability to learn without being explicitly programmed — the AI assistant makes its smartphone smarter the more one uses it, the company said.

LG set up a separate room to demonstrate its Google Assistant and how it can be connected to other devices like a smartwatch. When one visitor vice commanded the smartwatch play Michael Jackson, the music was played through the G6 smartphone connected to the watch.

A LG official said, “The Google Assistant, with its open platform, can be further connected with other products like home appliances in the future.”

Korean telecom operator SK Telecom also showcased its AI-powered speaker NUGU alongside some home robots made in partnership with local tech companies Future Robot and IPL.

NUGU was demonstrated in English during the event in partnership with IBM’s question-answering computer system Watson. Other robots ran only in Korean language.

Visitors paid keen attention to how NUGU worked, giving out such commands in English as ”tomato spaghetti recipe,” to which the speaker correctly recited the instructions.

Ernst-Joachim Steffens, research director at Deutsche Telekom, said he tried several robots at the event.

“In Germany, we don’t have such home robots although we do have many industrial robots. I want to buy it if the price is affordable,” he said.

German automaker BMW, meanwhile, demonstrated its connected car technology outside the main hall in partnership with chipmaker Intel.

When an employee wearing a smartwatch made a gesture, the car parked in a garage moved backward for a driver to get in. It was possible as the sensors in the car can detect objects in its surroundings, according to the firm.

BMW’s autonomous driving technology is expected to be further developed through Intel’s 5G-ready solution platform when the 5G network is fully ready by 2020, it added.

Intel said it will deploy machine and neural learning technology to help the car “think” via cloud.

For instance, if there is a dog standing in front of the car, it will recognize it as a dog because it has the capability to recognize the type of an object and make an instant decision.

“The more the car is used on the road, the car becomes smarter as it collects more data and learns more realistic scenarios even car designers haven’t thought of,” Rob Topol, general manager of Intel’s 5G business and technology unit, told The Korea Herald.
