Prior to using water-based gel, ensure that the container of ultrasound gel
has not passed the expiration date
4. Make a test-spot with to see epidermal end-points of perifollicular
erythema/edema. Use Strong Cooling while treating for better comfort and
safety. Perform the test spot in the area to be treated in a non-conspicuous
site and wait according to the Table below or current QRG (Quick Reference
Guide) to check the response.
5. Test and wait at least 15-30min and increase or decrease by 2J/cm² for skin
types I-IV. Wait 2-3 days and increase or decrease by 1-2J/cm² for skin types V-
VI.
6. Set treatment parameters. Typical treatment parameters are shown in the
table below; however, an individual adjustment is required:
7. Always start with a low settings level to check patient tolerance. Test, watch
epidermal response, and increase or decrease settings gradually. Darker skin is
safer to treat with Long pulse width. Lighter hair requires higher fluence to
reach the results. Stronger cooling allows better epidermis protection but may
compromise results on very superficial hair e.g. upper lip or Asian skin in
general. Reduce fluence on thin skin and in bone proximity along with a thicker
layer of gel. Consider primarily safety for selection of parameters.
8. Apply to the treated area ensuring a contact with pressure, depress foot switch
and press trigger button to deliver DiolazXL laser pulse.
