Treatment Tip
Removable disposable tips attach to the distal portion of the handpiece and MUST
be in place prior to any treatment. The tips are interchangeable and are available in
small and large sizes of approximately 7 and 15 mm, respectively. The different
sizes allow for treatment of both small and large areas. The system detects contact
between the tip and skin and translates handpiece motion into velocity information.
The tips have a finite treatment lifetime.
When using the tips, ensure that the cooling channel adaptor is clipped onto that side
of the handpiece as shown on section 1.3. Connect the distal end of the Zimmer air
cooler delivery hose to the white cylinder at the end of the clear tubing. Cool air will
flow down the cooling channel into the Cool Roller Tip. The air will flow across the
skin between the rollers and exhaust from the opposite side.
Inspect tip window for contamination before the tip is installed onto the handpiece.
The rollers used in the Fraxel Cool Roller Tip, are for single patient use only. Do not
reuse. Multiple patient use may create the potential risk of cross contamination of
biological agents from one patient to another.
Note:
Handpiece tracking could be adversely affected by tip window fogging or
condensation. Remove tip from handpiece to observe both sides of the tip window.
CAUTION: The handpiece tip must be attached to the distal portion of the handpiece
prior to any treatment. If this is not done, the laser system will not function properly
which may result in injury to the physician or patient.

Power Cord
A hospital grade power cord connects the laser to the electrical outlet. The power
cord entry on the back of the console is a standard IEC60320 type C14 male
connector. The power cord needs to have a standard IEC60320 type C13 female
connector.
CAUTION: Do not substitute another power cord for the one supplied with the unit or
provided by your local representative. Do not use the power cord if it becomes frayed
or damaged in any way. Contact Solta Medical or your local authorized distributor of
Solta Medical lasers for a replacement, if necessary. Do not pull on the cord to pull
the plug out of the socket.
