NTRODUCTION TO THE
S
YSTEM
SpaTouch Elite is a Light & Heat Energy (LHE
®
) based device for the
treatment of Hair Removal (HR). It is based on the principle of selective
photothermolysis, utilizing specific wavelength range and pulse duration to
selectively coagulate the hair follicles with minimal effect to the surrounding
skin tissue.
SpaTouch Elite consists of a console, a footswitch and one handpiece. The
handpiece contains a pulse switch, a ready indicator light and one treatment
lamp. The handpiece is held by the operator and placed directly upon the
treatment area. The operator then simultaneously presses the footswitch
and the pulse button to emit the therapeutic pulse. In this manual, the term
operator applies to all qualified personnel trained to operate the SpaTouch
Elite system.
Important Note
– The SpaTouch Elite user manual is meant as a
starting point for treatment, a reference guide of general
recommendations. As you gain more experience with the device, you
may use your personal expertise to better individualize treatment
parameters.
