General Use and Operation
Once programming has been completed on your Dermaray Laser the duration of
your treatment has been calculated automatically and is usually within 10~17
minutes depending on your condition and skin type. Laser therapy is recommended
at least every two days, allowing your skin to rest between treatments. If more
frequent treatment is required, it is suggested to do this after several weeks of
successful treatment every two days. It is not recommended to begin with daily
treatments.
Dermaray Laser can be used by either continuously moved over the entire
treatment area or held for several minutes on each area. Likewise it is acceptable
to concentrate on problem treatment areas. There appears to be no "best" method
for applying laser therapy, but the general consensus is to hold for several minutes
on the main problem or treatment areas.
If Dermaray Laser is moved too fast, an alert will sound and the display will issue an
"IR disconnect" command-error. This is part of the normal operation. If you
continually receive this error, please ensure you are holding the comb flat against
the treatment area. Try moving Dermaray Laser either faster or more slowly until
you find the best method of use for yourself.
It is important to hold Dermaray Laser flat against your scalp or treatment area and
move it in contact with your skin. Lifting Dermaray Laser to move between
treatment areas will cause an IR Disconnection warning. This is part of the normal
operation. If lifting and moving between treatment areas is required, setup
additional treatment areas or disable proximity detection via the System Tools
menu.
NOTE: Do not press the Dermaray
Laser hard against your skin. Pushing hard to
flatten the comb attachment will eventually break the comb teeth. Hold Dermaray
Laser lightly in place.
