The Science of Tixel®
Advancing Healthcare Through Thermo-Mechanical Action®
What is TMA®?
Thermo-Mechanical Action (TMA®) is Novoxel's groundbreaking technology that combines precise motion and controlled heat delivery. At the heart of this innovation is a medical-grade titanium tip that delivers consistent, reproducible results across our family of devices.
Our proprietary non-laser technology utilizes a matrix of precisely engineered pyramid-shaped pins, heated to 400°C, covering a treatment area of 1cm². These self-sterilizing pins ensure safe and effective energy transfer for every procedure.
The Science of TMA®
During treatment, the heated pins make millisecond-precise contact with the treatment area. This brief but carefully controlled interaction enables optimal thermal energy transfer while preventing tissue damage. The result is a consistent pattern of microscopic treatment zones that stimulate the body's natural healing response.
Comfort & Safety
Unlike traditional CO₂ lasers, TMA® technology delivers energy through efficient conduction rather than radiation. Combined with precisely controlled pulse duration, this approach significantly reduces discomfort while maintaining effectiveness. The limited energy capacity of each pin prevents burns and tissue charring, ensuring patient safety.
Applications & Innovation
Since 2011, we've collaborated with leading medical professionals to validate and enhance TMA® technology. Our research is backed by dozens of clinical publications, demonstrating successful outcomes across multiple applications.
Today, Novoxel's technology powers three specialized medical devices:
Tixel 2 - Advanced aesthetic treatments
Tixel C - Targeted skin rejuvenation
Tixel i - Innovative dry eye treatment
Global Impact
Our patented technology is trusted by healthcare providers in over 50 countries worldwide. Each device in the Tixel family leverages the precision and reliability of TMA® technology to deliver consistent, reproducible results for both aesthetic and ophthalmic applications.
