How to Use HERKINS PlasmaFusion

The following information provides a general professional workflow for using the HERKINS PlasmaFusion system.

Step 1: Complete the Client Consultation

Examine the treatment area and determine the most appropriate treatment modality based on the client’s skin condition and cosmetic goals.

Step 2: Prepare the Device

4. Clean and disinfect all reusable treatment components.
5. Connect the appropriate handpiece for the selected treatment.

Step 3: Prepare the Client’s Skin

1. Remove makeup, sunscreen, oil, and surface impurities.
2. Cleanse the treatment area thoroughly.
3. Dry the skin unless the selected ultrasound protocol requires a treatment medium.
4. Protect sensitive areas as appropriate for the selected service.

Step 4: Select the Treatment Modality

Select the appropriate treatment technology based on the client’s skin condition, treatment area, and cosmetic objective.

• Plasma Mode:
  Designed for professional skin-contact plasma protocols.

4. Move the handpiece continuously using slow circular or gliding motions.
5. Maintain even contact between the handpiece and the treatment area.
