1 Laser Hair Reduction and Pseudofolliculitis Gemini Nd:YAG 1064 nm Hair Growth Cycle: Hair grows in three different cycles. Anagen, Catagen, and Telogen. The only time the hair has a nutrient (blood) supply is in the Anagen, active growth state. Subsequently, the ONLY cycle in which you can effectively kill a hair follicle is in the Anagen state (which is true f ALL hair reduction modalities). Frequency of Treatments Hair grows at different rates depending on body location. When treating your patient f hair reduction, body location plays a key role when deciding frequency of treatment. The patient s (2 nd ) visit should be 4-6 weeks from their initial treatment. F sessions 3 and beyond, treatment intervals depend on the following body location: Head and Neck weeks Underarms, Bikini, Tso (front and back) weeks Extremities (Arms and Legs) weeks If patient notices new hair growth after 2-3 weeks post-treatment (i.e. the hair is in the Anagen state), they may return ASAP f a follow up session. A minimum of 6-8 treatments may be needed. Part No , Rev. D 31/07/2009 Page 6.1

2 Laser Hair Reduction and Pseudofolliculitis Gemini Nd:YAG 1064 nm These treatment parameters should be used on Fitzpatrick skin types I - VI. 1. Determine the patient s skin type and select the settings f the test spots from the parameters on page As a reminder, these settings should be adjusted accding to the col, texture, and density of the hair. Black, coarse, very dense beard hair requires lower fluences. Darker skin types require longer pulse durations. 3. Remove any make-up lotions and cleanly shave the area to be tested. Apply clear, colless ultrasound clear, colless (no alcohol Lidocaine) Aloe Vera gel and test spot the treatment area with the highest density hair growth. Always use contact cooling. 4. Starting with Test Spot 1, perfm test spots, hold handpiece perpendicular to tissue. Deliver 3-4 test spots in either a square pattern line (Figure 1), with the laser set f 1 pulse per (PPS) (HZ). Remember: deliver one pulse, and quickly move to the next position. When treating, overlap the pulse by 10% and treat in a basket weave pattern (two passes in opposite directions is the basket weave pattern). Treat until you have a discomft level of 3-5 depending on topical use. Look f perifollicular erythema and edema in skin types I-III. Number of passes depends on the afementioned responses. 5. Recd the initial reaction on the test spot notes. Tell the patient you are determining the highest level of energy that their skin can tolerate without adverse reaction. point should be based on Pain Scale value of 3-4 with topical anesthetic applied, of 5-6 with no topical applied. Sensation should feel like plucking waxing. See Mankoski Pain Scale next page. 6. Test spots on patients with skin types V and VI should be observed after a day waiting period pri to the actual treatment. Other skin types may not have to wait as long. Page 6.2 Part No , Rev.

Upon return, using medium pressure on the handpiece, treat the patient at the highest fluence tested that created the desired discomft level, and did not cause an adverse reaction (crusting, blistering pigment change). 8. Do not test spot over a bony area treat within the peribital ridge treat eyebrows. Retract pull the skin away from the peribital ridge bony prominence to treat. If it is necessary to treat over a bony area, reduce fluence by 10%. 9. Utilize tongue, wet gauze pad, white clear (colless) mouth guard to protect teeth. 10. Avoid any permanent tattoo and cosmetic tattoo (eye liner, lip liner, cheek blush). 11. F Skin types V VI only, if clinical end points are not achieved, you may use settings f one lighter skin type.

6 Pigmented Lesions Gemini KTP 532 nm Caution: The following treatment parameters are those repted by physicians using IRIDEX products either in published literature (Clinical References Chapter 16) repted directly to IRIDEX. These treatment parameters are only relevant to Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-IV. It is the physician s professional responsibility to determine individualized safe treatment parameters to be used on a case by case basis. These procedures should only be perfmed by physicians who have completed a specialized medical preceptship clinical in-service. Begin treatments at the lowest fluence level increasing fluence until lesion darkens. Perfm test spots to determine the highest fluence that can be tolerated. 1. Pre-treat me pronounced lesions with 2 passes in a basket weave pattern. 2. Treat twice in a basket weave pattern, keeping handpiece perpendicular to the skin. 3. With the 4.0 mm use a 10% overlap when treating. 4. Use cooled, clear (colless) gel where indicated. 5. These parameters must be used with cooling as indicated. 6. Reduce fluence by 15% if you cannot cool as directed. 7. Maintain contact with the treatment area but do not apply pressure with the handpiece. When treating with the 10 mm handpiece, start with lower fluence (4-6 J/cm 2 ). Pass over the pigmented lesion until you see a darkening of the lesion. Immediately after treatment, apply cold compresses to lasing site f minutes. This will reduce the amount of post-treatment discomft. Increase the fluence by 1 to 2 J/cm 2 on subsequent treatments. If swelling ensues after cold compresses are applied, lower the fluence by 1 J/cm 2. The physician and patient may decide to apply additional cold compresses after the session at their discretion.

9 Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation Gemini KTP 532 nm/nd:yag 1064 Caution: The following treatment parameters are those repted by physicians using IRIDEX products either in published literature (Clinical References Chapter 16) repted directly to IRIDEX. These treatment parameters are only relevant to Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-IV. It is the physician s professional responsibility to determine individualized safe treatment parameters to be used on a case by case basis. These procedures should only be perfmed by physicians who have completed a specialized medical preceptship clinical in-service. Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation combines treatments with both the 532 nm and 1064 nm wavelength. Each treatment is usually done in three steps. First, use the 532 nm wavelength to treat solar lentigos and vascular lesions. Then, use the 532 nm wavelength to treat diffuse, undefined pigmented and vascular irregularities. The last step is to use the 1064 nm wavelength f wrinkle reduction. These steps can also be done alone to treat problem areas. In addition, two weeks following this treatment, you may follow up with a Lunchtime Laser Peel using the Venus i 2940 nm laser. This procedure is described on page 8.1. The patient must have a clear understanding of the following: Several treatments (up to six) may be needed f Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation every two to four weeks. The patient may see dramatic results in lightening of defined pigmented areas veins in just one to two treatments with the 532 nm wavelength. Treat every four weeks at a minimum. Areas of diffuse undefined pigment rosacea treated with the 532 nm wavelength will show progressive improvement. Treat every 2 to 4 weeks. Wrinkle reductions are subtle and will begin to be evident after a series of treatments. Treat every 2 to 4 weeks. Some redness and swelling may last from a few hours to a few days. Photo damage will recur if the patient does not avoid sun exposure and use sun block of at least SPF45 on a daily basis. Perfm test spots to determine highest fluence that can be tolerated.

10 Enhanced Skin Rejuvenation Gemini KTP 532 nm/nd:yag 1064 cont. (Continued from page 6.9) Step 1: Treat defined pigmented and vascular lesions with the 532 nm wavelength. These treatment parameters should be used on Fitzpatrick skin types I IV. Start with treating pigmented lesions at the lowest settings and increase fluences. Look f an end point of the lesions darkening turning a light gray col. When treating vascular lesions, look f an end point of clear resolution of small superficial vessels. Maintain contact with the treatment area, but do not apply pressure with the handpiece the vessel will blanch. Caution: Never treat suspicious moles lesions. Follow appropriate dermatologic protocols.

These treatment parameters should be used on Fitzpatrick skin types I IV. Paint over the entire treatment area. A subtle reaction is seen with the end-point f improvement at two to four weeks. Maintain contact with the treatment area but do not apply pressure with the handpiece. Glide over the skin. Cover affected area twice in different directions (basket weave pattern). Then, if needed, Paint the entire face treatment area (including affected area) with the same settings. When treating with the 10 mm handpiece, start with lower fluence (4-6 J/cm 2 ) making one pass only. Immediately after treatment, apply cold compresses to lasing site f minutes. This will reduce the amount of post-treatment swelling. Increase the fluence by 1 to 2 J/cm 2 on subsequent treatments. If swelling ensues after applying cold compresses, lower the fluence by 1 J/cm 2 f subsequent treatments. Caution: Never treat suspicious moles lesions. Follow appropriate dermatologic protocols. Paint the area Paint the face treatment area, usually covered twice in different directions (4-5 mm only).

These treatment parameters should be used on Fitzpatrick skin types I - VI. Cautions Lower fluence over bony and thin-skinned areas, and avoid larger deeper facial vessels. Never treat within the peribital ridge. The patient must wear wavelength appropriate eyewear metal eye shields. Always point the handpiece away from the eye. Avoid the eyebrow area to reduce the chance of unintended hair reduction. Always protect teeth with folded wet gauze pads, the tongue a white/clear (colless) mouth guard if treating in that area. Contact cooling must be maintained at all times. Cover fehead, upper lip and temples in one direction (one pass). Paint over the cheeks and chin, covering twice in different directions (two passes). Longer pulse widths and lower fluence should be used on darker skin types. Test spots should be perfmed to determine the highest fluence tolerated. Chilled, clear (colless) gel should be used during treatments.

These treatment parameters are only relevant to Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-IV. It is the physician s professional responsibility to determine individualized safe treatment parameters to be used on a case by case basis. These procedures should only be perfmed by physicians who have completed a specialized medical preceptship clinical in-service. The patient must have a clear understanding of the following: Several treatment series may be needed f acne. Treatments are perfmed twice weekly f four weeks. (Twice weekly x four weeks = 8 treatments) One series of multiple treatments often reduce the severity of lesions but might not eliminate all lesions and break-outs. A percentage of patients might not respond to laser treatments f acne. Lesion improvement might be subtle; the acne lesions will heal over time. Some redness and swelling may last from a few hours to a few days after treatment. Patient MUST avoid sun exposure and use sun block of at least SPF 45 on a daily basis. Caution: Never treat suspicious moles lesions. Follow appropriate dermatologic protocols. Use lower fluences over bony and thin-skinned areas, and avoid larger deeper facial vessels. Use a 10% overlap when treating. Never treat within the peribital ridge. The patient must wear wavelength appropriate eyewear metal eye shields. Always point the handpiece away from the eye. Always protect teeth with folded wet gauze pads, tongue a white clear (colless) mouth guard if treating in that area. Contact cooling must be maintained at all times. Longer pulse widths and lower fluence should be used on darker skin types. Use a thin layer of cooled, clear (colless) gel. Always perfm test spots to identify highest fluence tolerated. Educate your patient that there may be increased outbreak post-treatment. This is tempary and is a result of the bacteria being destroyed.
