Lex Medical

What Lex Medical does

Lex Medical is a Turnhout, Belgium-based distributor of medical and aesthetic laser systems, founded in 2005 and operating for 17 years before being acquired by Dalton Medical in May 2022. The company distributed Lasering-brand systems across the BENELUX region, with its core technical scope covering CO2 fractional laser systems (Slim Evolution II MiXto Pro) and KTP lasers (Velure S5), complemented by a separate sports and veterinary LLLT (low-level light therapy) line that subsequently moved to the founder's new venture, PowerMedic.be.

Its business model combines equipment distribution, third-party technical service, and short-term rental of medical laser systems. LexTec, led by Alain Carlier and based in Boortmeerbeek, Belgium, provided on-site maintenance, a 48-hour repair service-level commitment, loaner devices, optional annual preventive maintenance contracts, and rental arrangements structured without purchase obligation. Following the May 2022 acquisition, the Lex Medical brand continues within Dalton Medical's broader BENELUX distribution network, which also represents Candela, Fotona, Zimmer, and Dermapen, and runs the Dalton Academy training program; Fran Van Hove is the designated BENELUX customer contact succeeding the founder.

Customers are primarily medical and aesthetic practitioners (dermatologists, skin therapists, aesthetic clinics) in Belgium and the Netherlands, with secondary demand from sports medicine and veterinary practitioners for LLLT devices. The acquisition leveraged Dalton Medical's larger portfolio and service infrastructure to retain the customer base and the LexTec service operation. No funding rounds, revenue figures, or technology platform components are disclosed in the source data, and there is no indication of proprietary software, AI/ML capability, or direct-to-consumer digital channels beyond Dalton Medical's general webshop.

Product overview

Lex Medical was a medical and aesthetic laser equipment distributor that was acquired by Dalton Medical in May 2022. The core business included distributing medical laser systems from brands like Lasering, along with service and support operations. Following the acquisition, the company operates primarily as a legacy brand under Dalton Medical, with LexTec continuing as an independent service and rental division (Bosbeekweg 2, 3191 Boortmeerbeek, Belgium) under Alain Carlier's leadership, specializing in Lasering products including Slim Evolution II MiXto Pro CO2 fractional laser and Velure S5 KTP laser systems. The original founder also established PowerMedic.be for LLLT lasers used in sports and veterinary medicine.
