Legend Pro System User Manual Version 7
Proprietary Information of Pollogen a company of Lumenis 50
Summary of treatment sequence is as follows: The Applicator tip should be placed on the skin, a pulse
emitted, and then Applicator is lifted and moved to an adjacent area. Emitted pulses usually create tip-
shaped erythema and edema zones
At the end of the treatment area, examine the skin and apply additional pulses if there are patches of
untreated areas
During treatment, inspect the tip for cleanliness once every 10 to 15 pulses. This is especially important
when using high parameters, which may cause increased buildup of debris. If the tip is not clean it must
be replaced
After completing the treatment, exit the treatment screen by pressing the Exit “door” button. The
following screen appears: “To end treatment remove tip”. Remove the treatment tip and dispose of it
appropriately
Post treatment soothing agents such as emollient cream or topical medication may be applied to the
treatment area, according to the physician discretion
After each treatment, the Applicator should be cleaned according to section 10 of this User Manual
In subsequent visits, the treatment program can be modified at the practitioner’s discretion
12.1.5 Post Treatment Care
Post treatment, tiny scabs in the form of the tip’s ultra-thin electrodes / micro-pins array will usually
form within 24 hours to 3 days.
Do not scratch the treated area or peel the scabs off the skin!
The scabs usually remain for several day
Scabs should be allowed to shed off naturally
If Low treatment parameters were used, scabs may not appear or may appear and disappear fast
Refer to the following recommendations to determine your own suitable course of action for
post-treatment care.
In case of excessive edema, erythema, or discomfort, cool the area for at least 15 minutes until heat
sensation fades (you may use cold, not frozen, packs)
It is recommended that the patient returns two to three days post treatment to evaluate the
treatment area and ensure that no adverse effects have occurred
Typically, there will be a slight edema or slight erythema which may last for 2-3 days. If side effects
persist excessively and beyond the indicated period, the patient should seek medical advice
In case of blisters, ulcerated or infected skin, the patient should seek medical advice. Such symptoms
can be treated with a prescribed antibiotic ointment or burn treatment cream as per physician’s
discretion
Patient should avoid makeup and moisturizer for about 24 hours. Afterwards, the patient may use
makeup, moisturizer, regular soap (not scrub soap or exfoliant) unless unwanted reaction occurs in
the area
For skin types IV VI and Asian skin, bleaching agents may be prescribed following healing of the
treatment area (a few days after crusting has completely disappeared), to minimize risk of post
inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Bleaching treatment should be stopped 48-72 hours before
another session. Bleaching treatment should be conducted as per physician discretion
During the first two days after the treatment, extra care should be taken to keep the skin clean to
avoid contamination or infection. Additionally, avoid hot baths, massage or any mechanical or
thermal damage to the treated area
