NOTE. Contact pressure of 1 to 5 N (Newton) is recommended for the operator when pressing the device against the skin to remove blood from the tissue (in the
same way as when a finger is pressed onto the skin creating a paler spot), which thereby increases the transmission or penetration of the laser light.
CAUTION! Be careful when applying the device in contact pressure on elderly people or people with conditions causing them to bruise easily.
5 Medical recording
It is recommended that the personal or medical record contains the following information:
• Date of treatment/s
• Used treatment protocol (i.e. wavelength, output power and Joules per point/cm²).
• Application area (i.e. where the laser radiation has been applied).
• Total treatment time or Joules delivered.
• Patient response to treatment.
