1. As a treatment provider, what is your goal in the first 1 -1.5 minutes of treatment using the Venus Freeze device?
treat as large an area as possible
make the skin red
reach therapeutic (39 - 41 c on the face, 41 - 45 c on the body)
use as high an energy setting as possible
*
2. If a patient finds the treatment too "hot" a treatment provider should;
speed up the movements and or reduce the % of energy
stop the treatment
ice the area or cool it with a cold compress
none of the above
*
3. Which of the following statements is true about PEMF?
PEMF is non-thermal and therefore cannot cause heat discomfort to a patient
PEMF is non-thermal and therefore will keep the skin cool
PEMF is thermal and makes the RF heat more intense
None of the above
*
4. The best way to work with the applicator (either) on the Venus Freeze device is:
apply slight pressure on the area and perform continuous motions over the treament area ensuring you stop and park the device on the skin every minute or so
apply hard pressure on the area and perform continuous movements over the treatment area ensuring you do not park the device on the skin
apply slight pressure on the area with the applicator and ensure you maintain constant movements over the treatment area, never stopping the device on the skin
apply hard pressure in a stamping fashion, covering the entire treatment area and overlapping 20%

face is 39 - 41 c and the body is 41 - 45 c
*
6. What is the mechanism through which RF works?
induction of electrical changes in the tissue and release of FGF-2
elevation of temperature triggering the wound healing response and lipolysis
non thermal fat lipolysis
waves of acoustic energy stimulating the cell and causing mico fractures in the skin
*
7. What is PEMF?
pulsed electronic ultrasound waves of magnetic field
perfectly emitting magnetic field
pulsed electro magnetic field
paused electromagnetic magnetic field
*

Uneven delivery of energy, superficial heating, focal hot spots, large spot size
*
9. During the neck treatment, you can do the following:
treat 5-10 minutes per side of the neck and treat over the thyroid
treat 5-10 minutes per side of the neck but avoid the thyroid
