Four technologies in one system
The DPL4 consolidates four advanced platforms into a single clinical system, so one machine covers a full treatment menu.
One machine, twelve treatment functions
Expand your menu without buying, housing and servicing four separate systems. Every platform shares the same machine body, the same water and cooling circuit and the same operating system.
Expand services without investing in multiple standalone systems.
Handpieces, tips and filters
Every handpiece is supplied with the machine. Nothing on this page is an optional extra unless it is stated as one.
Quad wavelength, delivered as one blended output
The handpiece emits 755nm, 808nm, 940nm and 1064nm together as a single combined pulse. The wavelengths are not selected individually.
Each contributes something different. 755nm is absorbed most strongly by melanin and works nearest the surface. 808nm sits in the middle and does most of the work across the widest range of clients. 940nm and 1064nm penetrate further and are absorbed less strongly, which is what makes the blend usable on deeper follicles and on darker skin types where a single shorter wavelength would not be safe.
Because all four arrive together, the machine covers a wider range of hair depths in one pass than a single wavelength system, and the practitioner controls the treatment through fluence, pulse duration, repetition rate and cooling rather than by switching wavelength.
Hair colour still matters. Blonde, red, grey and white hair contain little melanin and respond poorly to laser whatever the wavelength.
Three spot sizes, recognised automatically
Body tip
30 × 25mm. Large areas such as backs and legs. Maximum 60 J/cm².
Facial tip
15 × 15mm. Smaller areas and facial work. Maximum 166 J/cm².
Mini tip
8mm diameter. Precision work in delicate and awkward zones. Maximum 90 J/cm².
3D magnetic tip recognition
Fit any tip to the handle and the system identifies it and applies the pre-set parameters automatically.
360 degree cooling
The C-MAX uses a thermoelectric cooling system capable of reaching −20°C. A PT100 sensor holds the sapphire contact window at a constant 4°C throughout treatment, with cooling wrapping the full circumference of the tip to protect the epidermis and make treatment considerably more comfortable.
If a fault occurs, the monitoring screen identifies exactly which component is at fault, so support can be targeted immediately.
Pigment work and dermal heating
Q-switched Nd:YAG
Three treatment heads. 532nm for coloured tattoo removal, 1064nm for dark tattoo removal and 1320nm for carbon peel rejuvenation.
A UK xenon lamp and 6mm diameter rod deliver strong, uniform energy at up to 1000mJ for effective pigment fragmentation, at pulse durations of 20 to 30 nanoseconds. Uniform energy distribution gives a large, round spot and consistent results while remaining considerate of the surrounding skin.
Tripolar radio frequency
Tripolar RF delivers controlled electromagnetic energy into the dermal layer, generating uniform and precise heating while preserving the epidermis. This supports collagen remodelling, fibroblast stimulation, dermal tightening, improved elasticity, facial lifting and body contour refinement.
- Jawline definition
- Neck tightening
- Facial lifting
- Wrinkle reduction
- Skin firming
- Abdominal laxity
- Arm firmness
- Post weight loss skin support
- Body contouring
- Cellulite appearance
Five filters, five clinical functions
| Filter | Clinical use |
|---|---|
| 480nm | Acne. Reduces active breakouts and improves skin clarity |
| 530nm | Vascular. Facial redness, thread veins and broken capillaries |
| 590nm | Pigment. Sun damage, age spots and uneven pigmentation |
| 640nm | Hair removal on fair skin tones |
| 690nm | Hair removal on darker skin tones, longer pulse delay and lower energy for epidermal protection |
Three interchangeable spot sizes set the treatment area: 16 × 60mm for large body areas, 16 × 35mm for medium areas and 16 × 20mm for precise facial work. Two working modes, SUPER for large areas at up to 10Hz and NORMAL in grouped multi-pulses for smaller areas.
Strong cooling
The IPL SHR handpiece cools to approximately −20°C at the treatment tip, protecting the epidermis and making treatment considerably more comfortable.
One million shots
UK made xenon lamp, protected by a double water filter design and manufacturer tested to a lifespan of 1,000,000 shots. Shot counter fitted as standard.
Two working modes
SUPER emits single pulses from 1 to 10Hz for large areas. NORMAL emits grouped multi-pulses from 1 to 6Hz for smaller areas and facial work.
Specified for clinical reliability, not lowest cost
Every component in the DPL4 is sourced from established manufacturers. Sound engineering underpins long term clinical reliability.
US Coherent laser bars
The diode stack is built on imported US Coherent laser bars with 100% pure AuSn construction.
UK imported xenon lamp
Made in the UK and protected by the double water filter system.
Double water filtration
A PP cotton filter removes particulates and a resin filter removes metal ions such as calcium. Diode laser bars demand very high water quality.
Japanese HCG capacitors
Industrial 44,000µF capacitors delivering stable, uninterrupted power without pulse fluctuation.
32-bit intelligent processor
Proprietary intelligent processor for precise parameter control, with a self intelligent alarm protection system.
Schneider and Dazhi components
Schneider brand switch, solid state relay, Dazhi power supply, brushless DC water pump and Korean made water filters.
Serviceable by design
The cooling array, water filters and power components are laid out for access, so routine maintenance and any part replacement can be carried out quickly and without stripping the machine.
Two extra water filters protect the UK imported xenon lamp, which is a large part of how the handpiece reaches its stated one million shot lifespan.
An alarm does not mean the machine has a fault. It is the machine’s built-in self-protection, prompting you on water flow, water temperature, water impurity, water level and handle button status.
Your machine, your finish
Custom shell colour, finish and engraved logo are included at no extra cost on every purchase route.
Your name in LED on the handpiece
Branding is not limited to the machine body. Your business name can be lit in LED on the diode handpiece itself, engraved on the shell, and shown on the start-up screen, so the machine reads as yours from the moment a client sits down.
All of it is included at no extra cost on every purchase route.
Complimentary shell colour and logo customisation is included on the Complete Clinical Package, the Qualified Practitioner Package and the Machine Only Purchase.
Built for a working clinic day
Intelligent operating system
The DPL4 operating system gives a clear clinical workflow, supporting consistent treatment delivery and structured client records. It runs 10 to 12 hours continuously on a 15.6 inch true colour LCD touchscreen with 15 language options.
Treatment record saving
Every client has a different skin tone, hair type and pain tolerance. Suitable parameters are saved against each individual client, and when they return their personalised settings are retrieved instantly, saving time and keeping results consistent session to session.
- Pre-set treatment parameters
- Treatment record saving

Add the 980nm vascular handpiece
The DPL4 can be built with an additional 980nm vascular handpiece. It is an optional extra and needs to be specified when the order is placed, as the handpiece and its driver are fitted during manufacture.
How it works
Energy at 980nm is strongly absorbed by the blood inside superficial vessels. The fibre coupled handpiece focuses the beam to a spot of 0.2 to 0.5mm, so the energy is concentrated on the vessel being treated rather than spread across the surrounding skin.
What it treats
- Thread veins and spider veins
- Facial telangiectasia
- Linear angiotelectasia
- Cherry angiomas
- Superficial vascular lesions
Five focus rings, one handpiece
Five interchangeable rings set the spot size at 0.2mm, 0.5mm, 1mm, 2mm and 3mm, so the beam can be matched to the vessel in front of you. Rings are changed by hand at the treatment head.
Specification
- Wavelength 980nm, fibre coupled semiconductor laser
- Output power 20W or 30W, adjustable from 1W
- Pulse width 10 to 99ms, adjustable in 1ms steps

Who you will need, and where you will need them
Buying the laser is the straightforward part. What stops clinics trading is usually the paperwork around it, and most people meet these three roles for the first time when a council asks for them. Here is what each one is, in plain terms.
LPA
Laser Protection Adviser
An independent, certified laser safety specialist, normally RPA2000 registered. The LPA carries out a site audit of your treatment room, writes your Local Rules and risk assessment, specifies the correct protective eyewear for your exact wavelengths, and defines the controlled area. This is the appointment a licensing authority will always ask about. Your LPA is not your supplier and should not be.
LPS
Laser Protection Supervisor
Usually you, or a senior member of your team. The LPS is the person on site who is responsible day to day for the Local Rules actually being followed, for keeping the treatment register and the authorised user register, and for making sure nobody operates the machine who is not trained and named. The LPA writes the rules. The LPS lives by them.
EMP
Expert Medical Practitioner
A GMC registered doctor who issues your written Treatment Protocol for that specific device and remains available for clinical advice, on photosensitive medication, on adverse reactions and on contraindications. Their CV, GMC registration and insurance schedule are supplied for your council inspector. Also referred to as an ERHP.
Not every authority writes the EMP into its licence conditions. Some do, some treat it as advisory and some simply ask you to hold a list of practitioners. Our own Laser Protection Adviser recommends appointing one in every case, because a protocol cannot be back-dated and a doctor is only realistically available to you after an incident if they were already retained before it.
Where a licence is required
Licensing is not national. It depends on whether your council holds the local powers, which is why two clinics doing identical work in different towns can face completely different requirements. These are the areas where a licence is commonly required for laser and IPL.
| Area | Authorities |
|---|---|
| All 32 London boroughs | Barking and Dagenham, Barnet, Bexley, Brent, Bromley, Camden, Croydon, Ealing, Enfield, Greenwich, Hackney, Hammersmith and Fulham, Haringey, Harrow, Havering, Hillingdon, Hounslow, Islington, Kensington and Chelsea, Kingston upon Thames, Lambeth, Lewisham, Merton, Newham, Redbridge, Richmond upon Thames, Southwark, Sutton, Tower Hamlets, Waltham Forest, Wandsworth and Westminster |
| Nottinghamshire | Nottingham City, Broxtowe, Gedling and Rushcliffe |
| Kent and Medway | Ashford, Canterbury, Dartford, Dover, Folkestone and Hythe, Gravesham, Maidstone, Medway, Sevenoaks, Swale, Thanet, Tonbridge and Malling, Tunbridge Wells |
| Sussex | Brighton and Hove, Eastbourne, Lewes and Wealden |
| Midlands | Birmingham, Coventry, Derby, Leicester, Northamptonshire, Staffordshire, Stoke-on-Trent and Worcestershire |
| North East | Darlington, Durham, Hartlepool, Middlesbrough and Stockton-on-Tees |
| Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland | Regulated instead by the national healthcare inspectorates, HIW in Wales, HIS in Scotland and RQIA in Northern Ireland |
This list is a guide and not a substitute for asking. Powers change, and some authorities apply them differently from their neighbours. Before you commit to premises, telephone the licensing team at your own council and ask two questions: do we need a special treatment licence for laser and IPL, and do your conditions require an Expert Medical Practitioner. Get the answer in writing.
If your council does not hold these powers, you are not off the hook. Your obligations under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974, the Control of Artificial Optical Radiation at Work Regulations 2010 and BS EN 60825 apply everywhere, and your insurer will ask for the same documents whether or not a licence is involved.
Different rules again, and the reason clinics there struggle to buy
Outside England there is no council licence. Instead the clinic itself is registered and inspected by a national healthcare inspectorate, and the standard of documentation they expect is higher, not lower. This is where most machines on the market fall down, and it is the most common reason a clinic in Cardiff or Glasgow cannot find a laser it is allowed to buy.
What an inspector actually asks to see
In all three nations the inspection turns on documents. These are the ones that concern the machine itself, and they are the ones we supply with every machine we supply.
- The notified body certificate, naming the body and its number
- Evidence of device registration and who the UK Responsible Person is
- The manufacturer conformity documentation
- The classification, Class 4 to BS EN 60825-1
- Full instructions for use in English, not a brochure
- Wavelengths, maximum output and pulse parameters for eyewear specification
- Compliance with BS EN 60601-2-22 for the laser
- Test reports and the technical file for your LPA
One distinction worth knowing, because sellers blur it. HIW, HIS and RQIA register the clinic, not the machine. No laser is HIW registered or HIS approved, and anybody telling you otherwise is misleading you. What the machine needs is a complete and accurate documentation pack so that your registration can succeed.
That is the whole difficulty. Plenty of machines are sold in the United Kingdom at attractive prices with a certificate that turns out to cover electrical safety rather than medical device conformity, with a manual that is really a sales brochure, or with no named UK Responsible Person at all. A clinic in Wales or Scotland often only discovers the gap when the inspector asks, by which point they own the machine.
We send the documentation pack before you buy, not after. If you are registering with HIW, HIS or RQIA, ask and we will email the certificates, the registration confirmation, the test reports and the instructions for use, so that you or your adviser can check them against your application before you spend anything.

Buying direct from the factory
Clinics are sometimes offered the same machine directly by the manufacturer at a lower headline price. We would rather set out plainly what that price does not include than pretend the offer is not made.
Through Skintastic
Included in the price
- Engineer installation and calibration
- On site PAT testing and operational handover
- Ofqual regulated qualification pathway and Core of Knowledge
- Twelve months of named Laser Protection Adviser support
- Bespoke local rules written for your premises
- Eighteen month UK warranty, twelve months on the diode bars and lamp
- UK engineer servicing, spares and consumables held here
- FCA regulated finance
- Custom shell, engraved logo and LED handpiece branding
Direct from the factory
What lands on you instead
- You become the importer of record, and you are the one the MHRA comes to
- You must hold the technical documentation yourself
- You must produce the certificate for your insurer, your LPA and your council
- In a London borough they ask before granting your special treatment licence
- You must satisfy yourself the exact model is on the notified body certificate
- No UK warranty and no UK engineer
- A fault means shipping a handpiece to Beijing at your cost, and waiting
- No training, no local rules and no LPA
- Those are the documents an inspection actually looks at
A device imported directly from the manufacturer carries none of the first column, and the purchaser themselves takes on the legal obligations of the importer under the UK Medical Devices Regulations.
We are not saying this to protect a margin. We are saying it because we have spent this year sorting out exactly these problems for clinics who bought elsewhere, and it is far harder to fix afterwards than to get right at the start.
Buy the DPL4 online
All three purchase routes can be bought or reserved online. Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Klarna and Clearpay are accepted at checkout, and FCA regulated business finance is available.
Two of the four platforms have no shot limit at all
Clinics compare combination machines on the headline price and then get caught by the cost per shot. The manufacturer specification for the DPL4 is worth reading on that point, because it does not say the same thing about all four platforms.
Half of this machine costs nothing per treatment beyond electricity and gel. Over a working life that is the difference between a machine that pays for itself and one that keeps asking for money, and it is the comparison to make when somebody shows you a cheaper four platform system.
Lifespan figures are taken from the Beijing Stelle specification sheet for the DPL4M-CMAX. Ask and we will send you the sheet.
Talk to us before you buy
Tell us what you intend to treat and we will tell you what you actually need, including when the answer is a smaller machine than you were expecting.
