guide's temperature is reduced to 4°C (39°F) during system operation.
2.6.7 Module Design

Several aspects of the module design contribute to the safety of the VEGA LUX™ system:
1. ince the Light/Laser energy is generated in the module itself and not in the console (as in
S
conventional lasers), there is no need for an articulated arm or other beam delivery system with
inherent beam quality and alignment concerns. Instead, the VEGA LUX™ modules incorporate
a onepiece light mixer that combines the emission from thousands of emitters to produce a
uniform square beam. Since light/laser emission is confined to the module, there is no hazardous
optical radiation in the console or the umbilical cable.
2. he light-guide is placed against the patient's skin during the system use, reducing stray light/
T
laser energy while increasing the therapeutic effect.
2.6.8 Compliance

supply to the system. To resume operation, release the knob (by a quarter of a turn clockwise).
5.2.4 Light/ Laser Emission Indicators

While Lasing a red LED starts blinking on the Handpiece, which indicates the Laser is being
emitted. There is a buzzer in the machine which also indicates the Laser is firing.

5.2.5 Key-switch
The key-switch is located on the system's control panel. It is used to turn on the main
operating menu after the system is activated. To switch the system into operational mode,
the key-switch is turned a quarter of a turn, clockwise.
Warning:
To avoid misuse of the system, do not leave the key in the key-switch while the system is
unattended.
5.3 Service Panel

The service panel is located on the system's back side. It incorporates all the required
controls and connections for the system.
5.3.1 Main Circuit Breaker

A semi-automatic circuit breaker, located on the service panel, protects the system against
power overload. When the circuit breakers handle is in the lower position, electrical power is
not supplied to the system. To initiate system operation, lift the circuit breakers handle into the
upper position
5.3.2 Main Power Switch

The main switch is located on the service panel This is a green switch used to activate the LCD
display. A correct operation sequence starts with switching on the main switch prior to turning

5.3.3 Electrical Current Indicator

This green LED indicator illuminates when the power cable is connected to the wall outlet.

5.3.4 Diode Laser Module's Trigger
The module's trigger (Fig. 28) is the push-button located
on the handle of the diode laser module.Diode laser
energy emission is enabled only when both the diode laser
module's trigger and the footswitch are activated.
Warning:
If the system is in Ready mode, laser beam emission occurs when the module trigger and
the foot-switch are activated. This requirement for simultaneous activation of both triggers
minimizes the risk of unintentional laser beam emission.
5.3.5 Foot-switch
The foot-switch is enabled only when the system is in Ready mode. Activation of the footswitch
in Standby mode does not result in light/laser emission.
The foot-switch is an electric pedal that connects to the system through the foot-switch
connection port on the service panel.
Warning:
If the system is in Ready mode, light/laser energy emission from the modules occurs when the
footswitch or foot-switch and module's trigger are activated.

CHAPTER 7
Treatment Guidelines
7.1 Safety checks
1. Check All Equipment and Laser.
2. Check cooling devices.
3. Treatments should be 90 degrees to tissue (hand piece angle to skin)
4. Tips of distant gauge (if available) should be touching skin.
5. Try stamping or gliding techniques.
6. Go at a speed you are comfortable with.
7. Make yourself comfortable with hand piece.
7.2 Purpose of Test Patch

1. Performing a Test Patch is obligatory for Medical and Legal reasons.
2. Allows you to check the patient's skin response.
3. Gives the patient an opportunity to see how laser will feel
4. Perform only after signed consent.
5. Test patch on area to be treated but the least conspicuous area.
6. A test patch should be performed on each of the areas the patient is interested in.
7. he patient should come with some hair for test patch, so the hair can be assessed
T
for color and thickness
8. he area to be treated should be cleansed with a non-alcohol non-lanolin skin

T
cleanser & marked.
9. Establish skin type and hair.
10. Use three different fluence levels starting with the lowest.
11. Choose the highest fluence that gives the best efficacy with no adverse side effects.
12. Record reactions

7.3 Preparation of Skin before treatment
1. Remove all makeup, deodorant, and other barriers. (jewelry, clothing etc.)
2. Use baby wipes or a mild non alcohol cleanser.
3. Trim or shave the hair if necessary.
4. Mark out area with white pencil.
Treating Sensitive Areas

1. Upper Lip/ Nose
Ask the patient to hide lips/ protect vermilion border. You can use a wooden spatula to
block off each nostril as you work close to it. If using Air cooler to cool skin lower the level
and supplement with ice packs. You can ask the patient to hold the nose or take deep
breaths after each shot.
2. Ears
Place dry cotton wool down ear canal. Place hand piece so that the light fires away from
the ear canal.
CLINICAL ENDPOINTS COMMENTS
Erythema (pinkness) Redness on the area treated is a good clinical endpoint
• Looks like goose pimples around the follicle.

Peri-follicular oedema
• This is the best indicator that the correct fluence has been used.
• Frazzled hair, or can smell burnt hair.

Hair Vaporization • Hairs popping out the follicle are a very good indicator that the treatment
is working.
• The patient will feel uncomfortable and feel slight pain.

Comfortable treatment • Clients should never be treated on a greater than level 5 of a pain scale of
0-10, where 10 is the maximum pain.

NEGATIVE REACTION COMMENTS
• If the patient experiences excessive pain, stop treatment, cool the skin
Excessive Pain and moisturize with Aloe Vera gel.
• Review and then if all is OK restart treatment.
• Normally resolves within 24 hours however, in rare cases it can last up to

Excessive Persistent 72 hours.
Erythema
• Advise the client to apply Aloe Vera or hydrocortisone cream.
Blistering/Crusting/ • This is rare. Cover with antibacterial ointment.

Scabbing • Should be left to heal naturally, scabs should not be picked.
• Stop the process.

• Cool the burn with cold compresses or covered ice packs.
Burn
• Take over the counter pain reliever.
• Do not retreat till completely healed.
Pigmentation Changes/ • Discontinue treatment until normal pigmentation returns,

Hyper or Hypo • Moisturize the area and protect from the sun.
pigmentation • Hypo pigmentation can heal, although in some cases it can be permanent.
7.4 Why treatments may cause negative reactions

1. Deciding wrong Fitzpatrick Skin Type
2. Treating patients with tan, sun exposure or fake tan.
3. Distant gauge/handpiece not 90 degrees to the skin surface
4. Forgetting to switch on chilled air cooling, or not using enough cooling
5. Not lowering the fluence on target rich area. (melanin)
6. Not test patching pre-treatment
7. Too heavy an overlap
8. Failure to monitor patient comfort
9. Not recording parameters correctly
10. Not cleaning laser consumables, glass pieces, distant gauges, inserts etc.

7.5 Managing Patient Discomfort
1. For those with chilled air cooling only, consider applying a thin layer of ultrasound gel
in the area of discomfort.
2. Turn down the fluence (energy)
3. Turn up the cooling and or apply cold packs
4. Distract patient - engage in conversation
5. Topical Anesthetic creams (EMLA)6. Paracetamol (taken before treatment)
6. Reduce/increase Repetition rate
7. Massage areas during / after treatment. This can really help with pain on areas such as
upper lip.
7.6 Post-Treatment Care - Advice Sheet

1. Immediately after treatment, there will be erythema (redness) & oedema (swelling) of
the follicles which may last up to 2 hours or longer.
2. A topical soothing skin care product such as Aloe Vera gel may be applied following
treatment. If the area still feels hot you can apply a cold flannel or cool pack at home.
3. If your skin is particularly sensitive & prone to histamine reactions, you may take an
antihistamine medication.
4. Makeup can be used after the treatment if the skin is not irritated.
5. Avoid picking or scratching the treated area.
6. DO NOT depilate between laser treatments with waxing, plucking, threading or creams
that will disturb the hair follicle. Shaving is the preferred method.
7. Anytime from 10-21 days after the treatment, shedding of the treated hair may occur &
this appears as new hair growth.
8. This is NOT new hair growth. You can clean & remove the hair by washing or wiping the
area with a wet cloth or loofah sponge.

9. After an axillae (underarms) treatment, you may wish to use a powder instead of a
deodorant for 24 hours after the treatment to reduce skin irritation.
10. There are no restrictions on bathing except to treat the skin gently, as if you had
sunburn, for the first 24 hours.
11. Avoid very hot bath or shower.
12. It is extremely important to avoid sun exposure before, during and after treatment.
13. After Laser your skin is more sensitive, and you are more likely to burn and therefore
get hyper pigmentation or hypo pigmentation issues.
14. Laser treatment increases light sensitivity; all the areas treated by a laser must be
covered with plenty of sunscreen because the skin is sensitive to darkening.
15. Recently tanned skin cannot be treated with a laser because it increases the risk of
developing hypo pigmentation.
16. We recommend using sunscreen protection of at least SPF 30 all day
17. Irritated skin may be more susceptible to injury. Recently tanned skin cannot be
treated as you may develop hypo- pigmentation (loss of skin color).
18. You may be asked to stop any topical medications 1-2 weeks before treatment.
19. You MUST avoid waxing, threading, plucking, epilating or bleaching the hair 4 weeks
prior to treatment.
20. The melanin containing hair must be present in the follicle as it is the 'target' for the
laser light.
21. You will need to prepare the area to be treated in advance of treatment.
22. The area will need to be shaved & kept clean & free from any cosmetic products on
the day of the treatment.
23. Failure to prepare the area may result in unproductive session.
24. A medical history is taken at the consultation, but we rely on you to inform us of any
changes to this.
25. We need to know of any medication you are taking including those bought from a
chemist or herbalist/homeopath (inter sessions as well).

7.7 Other treatments and LHR
1. Hydroquinone: Should be stopped a week before Laser Hair Removal, it is a chemical
bleach.
2. Beauty products containing Glycolic Acid, Benzoyl Peroxide, Bleach, Salicylic Acid &
bleach: These need to be stopped before treatment, they contain strong chemical &
make the skin more sensitive.
3. Glycolic Acid Peel: Wait 1-2 weeks before Laser hair removal. If 70 % wait longer.
4. Moderate Peel: Wait 1 month before Laser hair removal.
5. Deep Peel: Wait 3-6 months before Laser Hair Removal.
6. Botox/lnjectables: Allow 10-14 days after treatment
7. Moles/Birthmarks/Tattoos/Permanent Makeup: It is not recommended to treat over

any moles, birthmarks, Tattoos or permanent make-up; as any pigmented areas will
absorb the light and is likely to burn & blister & permanent make up is likely to turn
black.
8. Cut, broken, irritated or infected skin: The appointment will need to be rescheduled as
you cannot treat over these areas.
7.8 What MUST be discussed at the Consultation

1. Client concerns and & Expectations from treatment
Communicate with the client and gain an understanding of what they want from the
treatment.
Good questions to ask would be: What is it that concerns you most? How do you remove
hair at present? How often do you need to? How quickly does your hair grow back?
2. Confirm Client's Medical history.
Go through any underlying medical conditions
Ask if the client is taking / applying any medications.

3. Assessment of Hair & Skin Type
The hair needs to be dark and there needs to be enough contrast between hair and
skin color for the Laser to work.
You need to ensure you have the correct equipment to treat the patient's skin type.
4. Type of technology & How Hair Removal works
Explain to the client in simple words how the laser works - e.g. -the light from laser
heats the hair follicle and destroys it completely.
This should include an explanation of the hair growth cycle.
Inform them which technology you are going to use.
7.9 What to expect during & after treatment

1. Treatment sensation: this can be described as a rubber band being snapped against
the skin.
The treatment can be uncomfortable and should be described as such to the client.
Client may feel mildly uncomfortable to extremely uncomfortable depending on their
pain threshold, the thickness of the hair and the area being treated. Cooling before and
after can reduce the pain.
2. Results are not immediately visible. After laser treatment some hair will be vaporized
immediately, and some will take 3-7 days to shed.
3. Multiple treatments will be required. Go through treatment intervals. Maintenance

sessions may be required, particularly if there is a known hormonal imbalance such as
PCOS.
4. Results to expect: Differs for different hair and skin types and body areas being treated.
100% clearance cannot be guaranteed.

7.10 Possible Side Effects of treatment
1. Temporary Hyper pigmentation (darkening of the skin)
2. Temporary Hypo pigmentation (lightening of the skin)
3. Temporary erythema (Redness) settles within hours
4. Temporary peri-follicular oedema
5. Temporary blistering and scabbing
All of these conditions are temporary however in some cases they can be permanent.
7.11 Importance of Photograph

1. Gain client's permission to take photographs of the area before treatment.
2. It is a good idea to take picture of the area before session to catalogue the progress
3. As treatments progress clients may forget how bad the problem was.
7.12 Consent Forms & Record Sheet

1. The patient must fill out a consent form.
2. Patient consent form must be signed prior to the treatment, and every session if any
changes to body parts or extending areas.
3. Which explains any possible side effects, and confirmation that the patient has been
given an explanation of the procedure and expected outcome.
A consent form is necessary for Insurance /Legal and Medical purposes
