Cynosure (Nasdaq: CYNO) closed a very successful IPO on December 14 to cap off the 2005 IPO season during which WilmerHale handled 11 IPOs — eight as issuer counsel and three as underwriter counsel — in the US and Europe.

Cynosure develops and markets aesthetic treatment systems that are used by physicians and other practitioners to perform non-invasive procedures to remove hair, treat vascular lesions, rejuvenate skin through the treatment of shallow vascular and pigmented lesions and temporarily reduce the appearance of cellulite. Cynosure’s IPO, which raised $86,250,000, was priced above the estimated price range at $15 per share and has traded up 25-50% since.

Serving as Cynosure’s counsel in the IPO were WilmerHale lawyers David Redlick, David Westenberg, Corey DuFresne, Jason Kropp and Dana Krueger.
