2.2

 Disposable Tips 

For safe, efficient and hygienic applications, the unit comes with disposable plastic tips. Two sizes are available: 

§

 

Blue tip:

 Gentle abrasion, ideal for fine skin and sensitive areas.

 

§

 

Green tip:

 Stronger abrasion, ideal for thicker skin and non-sensitive areas.

 

 

 

IMPORTANT: It is very important to clean the handpiece with a dry paper tissue to remove loose crystals 

before inserting a new disposable tip.

  

 

§

 

Choose the appropriate disposable plastic tip. Place on the handpiece so that it fits tightly.

 

§

 

Before using a plastic tip, make sure that it is in good condition, neither cracked nor damaged, and that it 

has no sharp edges that 

could

 

cause injury. The tip may be reused up to 5 times on the same client.  

§

 

Keep tip with client file. Do not give the tip to client. Disinfect the used tip with alcohol, making sure it is 

perfectly dry before proceeding with the microdermabrasion session.

 

 

 

IMPORTANT:  Using  a  damaged  tip  will  result  in  weak  suction.  If  suction  is  weak,  check  the  tip  and 

replace, if necessary.

 

2.3

 Corundum Crystals 

§

 

Corundum is a natural mineral with excellent abrasive qualities.

  

§

 

Corundum  crystals  are  Al

2

O

(aluminum  oxide)

 

pure  at  99.24  %  and  highly  uniform  granulometry  120  µ 

(microns). 

§

 

It is not recommended to use crystals other 

than those

 supplied with 

the

 equipment. They may be harmful to 

your clients and will damage your equipment.  

 

WARNING:  To  avoid  cross  contamination,  never  use  crystals  more  than  once.  Used  crystals  have  lost 

their abrasive properties and are contaminated.

 

How to replace the “clean crystal” bottle 

§

 

ONLY  WHEN  EMPTY, 

proceed  to

 

remove 

the

  clean  crystal  bottle. 

If

  there 

are

  too 

many

 

crystals

  left  in  the 

receptacle, use the vacuum hose to remove 

the

 

before

 

placing

 the new bottle in. Disconnect the large hose 

from the handpiece and use it to vacuum the excess crystals. 

§

 

Turn  on  the  unit  on  to

 

maximum  intensity,  and  use  the  vacuum  hose  to  clean  all  crystal  residues  from  the 

clean crystal outlet. Turn the unit OFF. 

§

 

Remove the new "clean crystal" bottle cap 

(DO NOT REMOVE PROTECTIVE SEAL);

 screw it in place. 

§

 

If something is trapped in the small hose, there will be no crystal projection. If this happens: 

o

 

Run the unit at full power (10) for 10 seconds while blocking both the hand piece opening and the air 
hole (air inlet orifice # 11), located at the back of the unit. Repeat this procedure 3 times. If there still 
is no crystal projection, repeat again at maximum intensity.  

o

 

This procedure will remove all crystals and debris trapped in the hoses and prevent blockage. 

 

IMPORTANT:

 

ü

 

When using a “new crystal” bottle, always empty or replace the “used crystal” container. 

ü

 

At the end of each procedure, use alcohol wipes to remove excess 

crystals

 from the hand piece.
