Core offering

Altair Instruments manufactures and sells DiamondTome professional microdermabrasion systems — including the DT3 System, DT2 Skin Resurfacing System, NewApeel, and Petite units — that use patented diamond-tipped wands to perform non-invasive skin exfoliation for face and body. The company also sells replacement DiamondTome Wands, the Hydro Wand attachment for serum infusion during treatment, and medical-grade HydroSerums as consumables that drive recurring revenue.

Product overview

Altair Instruments offers a comprehensive suite of DiamondTome exfoliation systems and skincare products for non-invasive aesthetic treatments. The core product line consists of the DT3 System and DT2 Skin Resurfacing System, which utilize diamond-tipped wands for gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin cells and promote radiant, youthful-looking skin. These systems are complemented by specialized attachments including the Hydro Wand (for serum delivery), various DiamondTome Wands, NewApeel, and Petite products. The company also offers HydroSerums—medical-grade serums designed for use with their Hydro Wand delivery system. The portfolio covers treatments for face and body areas addressing concerns such as fine lines, hyperpigmentation, skin texture, and signs of aging.
