Edge Systems LLC

Edge Systems, LLC was a skincare technology company, founded in 1997 and headquartered in Signal Hill, California. In December 2016, healthcare-focused private equity firms Linden Capital Partners and DW Healthcare Partner jointly acquired the company. Following this acquisition, Edge Systems, LLC changed its corporate name to The HydraFacial Company in May 2017.

Prior to its name change, Edge Systems, LLC designed, developed, and manufactured patented skincare technologies and solutions. The company pioneered hydradermabrasion and is known for creating the HydraFacial and Perk skincare systems, which were popular in over 75 countries. The HydraFacial treatment utilizes patented Vortex-Fusion® technology to cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate the skin, with customizable options including various boosters, HydroPeel® tips, LED light therapy, and lymphatic drainage.

Edge Systems, LLC exhibits the litigation posture of an operating company actively protecting its intellectual property. The company has appeared as a plaintiff in both of its two tracked patent litigation cases and has no record of being a defendant. These cases were filed in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York.

Notable cases include HydraFacial LLC et al. v. MIRAmedtech SP. Z.O.O. et al. (2024-08-26), which involves its successor entity, and Edge Systems LLC v. Cartessa Aesthetics, LLC. The latter case involves Cartessa Aesthetics, LLC, a distributor of aesthetic devices, suggesting Edge Systems, LLC (and its successor) actively asserts its patents against competitors in the aesthetic device market. The company has a history of enforcing its patents and trademarks related to hydradermabrasion systems, as evidenced by earlier litigation.
