The Bovie Derm 942 High Frequency Desiccator is engineered for years of reliable, trouble-free performance in dermatology and minor surgical procedures. Designed with advanced chip technology and fewer internal components, the Derm 942 generates less internal heat—extending the unit’s lifespan while ensuring consistent output accuracy.
Its durable, high-impact, non-absorbing plastic case simplifies post-procedure cleaning and long-term maintenance, making it ideal for busy medical offices and specialty practices.
Delivering 40 watts of power, the Bovie Derm 942 offers exceptional precision—especially in bipolar mode, where output can be adjusted in 0.1-watt increments from 0.1 to 10 watts for highly controlled procedures.
With universal power capability (100–240 VAC), the A942 model is suitable for global use. The intuitive interface, digital error detection, and patented 3-button handpiece give physicians complete fingertip control, improving workflow efficiency and reducing the need for additional accessories.
