MicroElastic Ultrasound Systems is developing a handheld instrument that measures skin elasticity with the push of a button. The technology applies ultrasound to locally vibrate tissue and capture how it responds, enabling noninvasive assessment of tissue elasticity. The aim is to deliver a direct, reproducible metric to assist planning, guidance, and evaluation of procedures in aesthetic dermatology. Based in Durham, North Carolina, the company operates with a very small team. Its intended customers include clinicians in aesthetic dermatology and other clinical settings where objective tissue elasticity measurements inform decisions, including monitoring conditions like Graft-Versus-Host-Disease. Current methods for assessing elasticity are described as subjective, qualitative, or unreliable, reflecting the NIH’s emphasis on the need for more quantifiable and reproducible measurements.
