In the zone of special attention: how to protect the laser from damage
Note to permanent makeup masters
The presence of a laser device in a good beauty salon or clinic is becoming the norm for the Ukrainian market. But, like any other technique, laser cosmetology devices require skillful and careful handling.

Only with technically competent operation, the devices will serve for a long time and please with good results of the procedures. We continue to talk about the most common causes of device breakdowns, which were provoked by the consumers themselves in order to save valuable equipment in beauty salons and ensure its long-term, commercially profitable operation.
Reason number 5. The fall of the maniples of the device
The maniples of laser devices contain the most shock-sensitive components - elements of the laser radiation generation system and the optical system. Any fall of the maniple leads to a sharp impact on these elements, which can cause the failure of these elements, the appearance of chips in them or complete destruction.

Reason number 6. Installation of devices in dusty places
The cooling systems of laser devices have sufficiently powerful coolers that blow air through the radiator fins. The radiator fins are installed at a close distance from each other, and if the device is installed in a place where dust is concentrated, or if the space behind the device is not cleaned in a timely manner, or if the desktop model of the laser is placed on the floor, then a powerful air flow from the cooler draws in this dust, it settles on the radiator fins. The settled dust begins to act as an obstacle to the air flow and a heat insulator. The heat transfer in the cooling system deteriorates, and the device begins to overheat. In addition, in some machines, the openings of the ventilation system may become clogged with larger debris.

Reason number 7. The fall of the main unit of the device
It may seem paradoxical, but in many cases, damage caused by the fall of the main unit of the apparatus turns out to be much less dangerous in terms of consequences than the fall of maniples or the use of low-quality water. For example, photo 3 shows the consequences of the fall of the main unit of the D-Las 40 device. The device is quite heavy and fell right on the top cover - the body collapsed in several places. But all internal components, including the control display, remained fully functional, and the repair was limited to restoration of the top cover at the request of the owner, although it was possible to replace the cover.

The above examples of breakdowns are enough to increase the attention of users of laser devices during the procedures and maintenance of this useful equipment. In conclusion, I would like to add another piece of advice: get your equipment serviced at service centers on time. The timely passage of the first MOT allows you to identify existing violations of operation at the stage when the situation can be corrected and prevent the occurrence and development of more serious problems. I wish all readers the successful development of your business and the smooth operation of laser devices.
