Why the MCT System
What makes the MCT System different?
Autologous
Works with the patient’s own biological material — such as platelet-rich plasma or fat-derived preparations — processed at the point of care.
Controlled process
Light wavelength, temperature and exposure time are defined by preset protocols, so every preparation follows the same parameters.
Photothermal biomodulation
Specific wavelengths of light combined with controlled temperature, applied inside a single-use MCT Kit.
The system
Two devices. One system.
MCT Unit applies the light and the temperature. MCT Kit holds the autologous preparation while it is conditioned.
Device 01
MCT Unit®
The device that delivers photothermal conditioning. It works across a range of temperatures and wavelengths, set up through one-touch preset protocols.
Device 02
MCT Kit®
A patented, single-use cassette in medical-grade polymer, designed for light and thermal transmission. It holds up to 10 mL of autologous preparation.
Presets
One system, three presets.
Each preset defines how light and temperature are applied to a specific autologous preparation.
MCT Plasma
For platelet-rich plasma (PRP): photothermal conditioning of the platelets before application stimulates their performance, for improved clinical results.
MCT Cells
For autologous cellular preparations, such as fat grafts and stromal vascular fraction (SVF): photothermal conditioning promotes cell metabolism for improved cell-based therapy outcomes.
MCT Exosomes
To obtain exosome-rich preparations from the patient’s own plasma: photothermal conditioning stimulates platelets to release exosomes and other extracellular vesicles.
Add-on
Exo-Tech
An add-on to MCT exosome protocols that turns the patient’s own plasma into an injectable autologous scaffold loaded with MCT Exosomes.
The technology
Photothermal biomodulation
Two physical stimuli — light and temperature — applied under controlled conditions to the patient’s own biological material, inside the MCT Kit.
Increased levels of growth factors and complement proteins
Photothermal stimulation increases the levels of growth factors and complement proteins in the plasma. Growth factors are released from platelets in a more physiological way: not only in an initial “flush”, but also in a sustained way.
Enhanced ATP production
When mitochondria are exposed to the proper wavelength light, macro-complexes of the cellular respiratory chains receive a boost of energy that will ultimately lead to a huge increment in ATP production.
Augmented regenerative power
Photothermal stimulation reduces the pro-inflammatory cytokine content of the plasma and improves some of its physiological characteristics. It also primes the release of platelet growth factors and enhances PRP angiogenic capabilities.
Improved platelet performance
Photothermal biomodulation primes platelets to work more and better. The MCT Kit can work with any commercial PRP kit. MCT System does not concentrate platelets, it exposes them to photothermal conditioning protocols.
More comfortable injection
A thermally conditioned PRP is less dense than standard PRP. A more fluid plasma implies less pain at the site of injection resulting in a better patient experience.
Effective and natural results
All these mechanisms result in better outcomes, reducing the number of sessions, increasing patient and physician satisfaction, and facilitating medical application.

Workflow
The MCT System protocol
A controlled three-step process at the point of care.
01
Obtain the autologous material
Prepare it with your usual protocol — MCT works with any commercial PRP kit.
02
Load the MCT Kit®
Transfer up to 10 mL into the single-use cassette.
03
Run the preset on the MCT Unit®
Select the preset; the Unit applies the defined light and temperature.
Clinical areas
One system, multiple medical specialties.
Physicians apply the MCT System across a growing range of clinical areas, supported by published research.
Orthopedics
Osteoarthritis and musculoskeletal injuries.
Regenerative medicine
Chronic wounds (diabetic foot ulcers), acute wounds, burns and post-surgical recovery.
Dermatology
Psoriasis, rosacea and pigmentation disorders.
Trichology
Androgenetic alopecia, alopecia areata and seborrheic dermatitis.
Gynecology
Lichen sclerosus.
Aesthetic medicine
Skin quality of the face, neck, décolleté and hands; acne scarring.
