ALAFLEX DESIGN

ALAFLEX Design is a startup founded by an interdisciplinary team of medical and industrial design students from Thomas Jefferson University, home of the Sidney Kimmel Medical College and Philadelphia University. Through the JeffSolves MedTECH 2017 immersive accelerator program, a collaboration between JeffDESIGN and New Lab's 10XBeta, student inventors researched and developed innovative healthcare products and medical devices... Our product provides leak and odor protection, while offering comfort and discretion. Though the ALAFLEX is primarily geared towards treating HS patients, users suffering from hyperhidrosis and other axillary wounds and conditions would benefit from this affordable option... Through user experience research and expert testimonies, our ALAFLEX team discovered that women's sanitary napkin products provide similar coverage and a relatable market model.
