- Parameter adjustments by skin type
02 Body contouring Non-invasive fat reduction and skin tightening protocols, including localized contouring and multi-area combination treatments. Expand
- Non-invasive fat reduction protocols
- Skin tightening treatment plans
- Localized contouring parameter guides
- Multi-area combination treatment workflows
03 Comprehensive treatment plans Multi-technology integration protocols with phased treatment planning and maintenance scheduling. Expand
- Multi-technology combination protocols
- Phased treatment planning
- Maintenance period management
- Patient-specific adjustment guidelines
Development and validation
Each protocol is developed and reviewed under medical supervision before it is offered for clinical use.
-
01
Medical supervision and development
Protocols are developed under the Chief Medical Officer, with input from dermatology, plastic surgery, and clinical research.
-
02
Internal preclinical assessment
An internal review sets safety parameters and efficacy benchmarks before any clinical testing.
-
03
Partner clinic pilot studies
Pilot use at partner clinics is how parameters are refined and real-world fit is assessed.
-
04
Multicenter clinical validation
Validation across clinical sites is how a protocol is checked in different patient groups and practice settings.
Updates combine quarterly literature review, outcome-data analysis, safety-profile assessment, and expert-panel validation. Real-world records and longer-term tracking are part of that review.
Standard protocol structure
Every protocol in the library uses the same four parts.
-
01
Patient assessment criteria
Standardized evaluation, including inclusion and exclusion criteria, risk assessment, and baseline measurements.
-
02
Treatment parameter guidance
Device settings, including energy parameters, treatment duration, cooling parameters, and safety ranges.
-
03
Operational procedures
Steps for preparation, treatment, and post-treatment care.
-
04
Expected outcomes and follow-up
What to expect from treatment, when to assess it, the follow-up schedule, and maintenance notes.
Safety by design. Protocols include defined safety ranges, risk mitigation, adverse-event management, regulatory compliance checks, and ethical review.
Personalization and AI
Standard protocols can be adapted to the patient, the clinic’s equipment, local practice, and newer evidence.
| Adaptation factor | Customization approach | Protocol impact |
|---|---|---|
| Individual patient factors | Parameter adjustment by skin type, age, and medical history | Personalized treatment plans |
| Clinic equipment configuration | Device-specific parameter translation | Equipment-optimized protocols |
| Regional practice variations | Adaptation to local regulations and standard of care | Regionally compliant protocols |
| Latest clinical findings | Continuous integration of new evidence | Evidence-updated protocols |
Version numbers record what changed and how a clinic moves from one version to the next.
AI tools can help compare a case with clinical characteristics, earlier treatment records, and similar cases, including suggestions while a treatment is underway. Those suggestions do not replace the licensed practitioner’s judgment.
