Physical Properties and Settings
Explanation:
The repetition rate controls how many laser pulses are emitted per second. A higher repetition rate means the treatment is faster but can generate more heat(Motus AY User Manual '22).
Why and How to Change:
For large areas like legs or back, you can use a higher repetition rate to cover more area quickly.
For smaller or more sensitive areas like the face or bikini line, a lower repetition rate allows for more precise control and minimizes heat build-up.
How to change: Adjust the repetition rate on the machine's settings, ranging from 1 to 10 Hz, depending on the treatment area and patient tolerance
Flashcards
-
The number of laser pulses emitted per second, measured in Hertz (Hz).
-
It speeds up the treatment, allowing more pulses per second for faster coverage.
-
It can increase heat build-up and discomfort, especially on sensitive areas.
-
It allows more control and reduces heat build-up for safer, more comfortable treatments.
