CHOOSING A
TREATMENT MODE
To choose the treatment mode, simply press on
the Modes ( ) button on the right side of
the home screen as shown on the left page. All
available modes will then appear in the center of
the screen (the choice will depend on the device
model). The modes for thermolysis are displayed
on the left, Blend modes in the center, and to the
right, the post-treatment and beauty treatment
modes.
Once the desired mode has been selected and you
wish to begin the work, press the Treatment ( )
button located at the top right. This button allows
you to activate the settings adjustment screen to
then begin the treatment (see next step).
TREATMENT MODE
DESCRIPTIONS
Thermolysis 27.12 MHz
Thermolysis, also known as high frequency, is a
very rapid method of permanent hair removal. The
technique consists in applying a 27.12 MHz high-
frequency current that destroys the hair follicule
and prevents hair regrowth.
Because of their speed and comfort, the thermoly-
sis 27.12 MHz modes are preferred for all hair types
and regions, except in the case of hairs that are
very deformed. (See combined currents "Blend")
PicoFlash
Because of its exceptional speed (in milliseconds),
the technique of PicoFlash thermolysis allows for
a very localized coagulation at the base of the
hair follicle, while avoiding heat diffusion into the
surrounding tissues. It allows for the targeted des-
truction of cells responsible for the regrowth of all
hair types and delivers a level of comfort that will
impress your customers. Ideal for all hair types.
This method is preferred for superficial hairs and
the sensitive areas of the face. Can also be used
with the double-impulse with displacement tech-
nique (the use of an isolated probe is required).
MultiPlex
A mode that combines a slow thermolysis impulse,
followed by a rapid impulse-PicoFlash. The slow
thermolysis impulse creates a slight heating which
helps prepare the follicle to receive the rapid Pico-
Flash pulse. This combination provides a concen-
trated destruction of the follicle. Ideal for difficult
hair and/or slightly deformed. Can also be used
with the double-impulse with displacement tech-
nique (the use of an isolated probe is required).
Synchro (patented)
The Synchro mode offers unparalleled efficiency
in the case of stubborn and deep hairs. Its simul-
taneous application of several 27.12 MHz pico-
impulses from 2 to 5 milliseconds each, with a
period of thermal relaxation, extensively destroys
all germ cells located between the bulb and the
bulge of the hair follicle. This technique must be
accompanied by a movement of the bulb to the
bulge and is done using an isolated probe.
MeloFlash (new)
Thermolysis mode that is executed within hun-
dredths of a second. The duration of the impulse
is longer with a lower intensity. This technique pro-
duces more extensive heat into the follicle, which
favors its use when dealing with strong and deep
hair.
