During Treatment: Safety Guidelines

Check if ChillTip is activated 

Physically touch the tip to check for cooling before 
treating patient

ChillTip must be cleaned often

Singed hair can collect on tip causing excessive 
heating
Can occur after several pulses or up to one full run, 
depending on the amount of hair extrusion
Visually check the tip for any debris every 50-100 
pulses, without looking directly into tip 
Clean more frequently in areas of high hair density
‗Warning‘ after 1000 pulses only serves as a reminder
