●
Advise the patient to exfoliate the skin with appropriate creams before
treatment. The patient should come to the treatment with clean, dry skin (no
perfume, no lotion).
●
Hair may impair the movement of the applicator and/or overheat the
treatment area. Removing hair before treatment is advised.
●
Advise the patient to avoid anticoagulants, such as aspirin throughout the
treatment regimen, if medical condition permits and pertinent to physician
approval. Anticoagulants increase the possibility of bruising.
●
Before the first treatment session it is important to weigh your patient,
photograph and measure the circumference of the treatment area in order to
establish a baseline (see VelaShape III Measurement, page 48).
●
Re-photograph and re-measure before the last treatment and before any
maintenance treatment thereafter, and document the results achieved.
Additionally you may do so every two sessions to document any progress.
Re-weigh your patient before each subsequent session to ascertain no weight
gain.
●
Mark the treatment areas when the patient is standing (use white or yellow
marker), as cellulite or contour may change characteristics when the patient is
lying down.
●
Make sure that all the applicators’ parts are clean and intact. Make sure that
the RF electrodes are clean and intact (not chipped). When using the
VSmooth applicator, verify that the rollers function smoothly.
●
Make sure that the cover filters are clean and correctly inserted (replace them
if not).
●
Ensure that the replaceable cover is firmly inserted and secured in place.
●
Fit the patient with opaque eye protectors if the treatment area is within a 30
cm (12") proximity to his/her eyes.
Selecting the Appropriate Treatment Type
The VelaShape III combines two types of energy, IR and RF, and mechanical
manipulations of vacuum and/or rollers (massage) in two different applicators:
VContour applicator and VSmooth applicator. Each applicator combined and
synchronized different actions to optimize the energy delivery. The VContour
applicator combines the RF energy and mechanical manipulation of vacuum,
while the VSmooth applicator combines the IR and RF energy and mechanical
manipulation via vacuum and rollers (massage).
You should examine the patient’s skin before treatment to determine the suitable
type of treatment to apply, to ensure effective treatment with minimal risk of skin
damage. Selecting the correct treatment type is essential for successful treatment.
