Israeli Patent Office Issues Notice of Allowance to NanoVibronix Allowing All Claims of Patent Application for System and Method for Surface Acoustic Wave Treatment of Skin

ELMSFORD, NY--(Marketwired - March 22, 2016) - NanoVibronix, Inc, (OTCQB: NAOV), a medical device company, has announced that the Israeli Patent Office has issued a notice of allowance for our system and method for surface acoustic wave treatment of skin. The patent will be granted following payment for patent issuance, which will be done this month. This patent has already been granted in China, and is in the final phase of being granted in the U.S. as well. The patent covers our Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) technology as it relates to wound healing, reduction of pain, drug delivery, and cosmetic rejuvenation of skin.

William Stern, PhD Chief Executive Officer of NanoVibronix, stated, "We are pleased with the progress we have made in securing additional world-wide patents using our Surface Acoustic Wave technology. With the Israeli Notice of Allowance, soon to be followed by a U.S. patent, we will be able to add cosmetic skin rejuvenation to our list of medical and cosmetic applications for our technology. We are developing a device for the facial rejuvenation market called Renooskin. Previous in vitro clinical studies on human skin were done showing that the SAW technology provided skin rejuvenation comparable to Retinol A, a well accepted anti-aging cream. The Company is developing a head band like applicator for the SAW treatment and has arranged for a pilot trial with a cosmetic dermatologist. The Company believes that pending proving efficacy of the Renooskin and receiving regulatory approval, the device can be sold in a non-reimbursement market since cosmetic devices are exclusively private pay. We expect first article testing to be completed by Q3 of 2016."
