7.9 Treatment Procedure
Read and follow all safety warnings and procedures given in this Manual,
ensuring that the correct protective eyewear is being used. More information
on patient consultation is supplied in the appropriate section.
a) Thoroughly clean the area to be treated, and remove all make-up
using facial wipes.
b) All hair should be removed from the treatment area to avoid
burning or unwanted long-term hair removal.
c) Apply cold gel to the area to be treated.
d) Set up the system to the desired treatment procedure or correct
Off Delay, Pulse Type and Energy Fluency.
e) Ensure the Applicator Head is perpendicular to the treatment site
and in very light contact with the skin. Do not apply pressure, as
would be the case for Hair Depilation Treatment.
f) Energy levels sufficient to produce erythema are generally
effective for photorejuvenation. If there is no reddening of the
treated area, treatment can be repeated at higher energy levels
provided all the precautions given in this guide are adhered to.
g) Remove the gel from the treated area and apply Aloe Vera to
reduce any temporary discomfort (except for treatments to reduce
fine lines and wrinkles). However, avoid applying any cream to the
face if at all possible.
h) Advise the Client on aftercare procedures.
i) A concise record of all treatment settings and energy levels
should be kept for each Client.

depends upon the treatment type and the area being treated.

Due to the body’s UltraPluserative cycle, a number of treatments are required
in order to ensure that treatment has been a success. Treatments can be
carried out between 3 and 4 week intervals. A review date of approximately 3
months from first treatment will give a very good indication of the results that
will be obtained, however, improvements will continue over time.
Note: At the start of each subsequent treatment the same safety steps that
are recommended for the first treatment should be completed. To ensure that
subsequent treatments produce favourable results, the Client must inform the
Operator if any pigmentary changes have occurred. If so then these should be
