Skin Care Guidelines
In the absence of proper skin care, extended use of electrical stimulation may
cause skin irritation or a skin reaction to the electrodes or the FS Cuffs. Skin
irritation tends to occur after approximately three months of use. To promote
healthy skin with long-term use of the NESS L300 Plus, it is important to
follow a daily skin-care routine.
• Clean the skin where the electrodes adhere with a wet washcloth. If any
oils or lotions are on the skin, then clean with soap and water. Rinse well.
• Always check the skin for redness or a rash when putting on and taking
off the FS Cuffs.
• Replace the electrodes at least every two weeks, even if they appear to
be in good condition.
• After taking off the L300 FS Cuff, always re-cover hydrogel electrodes
with the protective plastic covers.
• Excess body hair where the electrodes adhere may reduce electrode
contact with the skin. If necessary, remove excess body hair with an
electric shaver or scissors. Do not use a razor. A razor can irritate the skin.
• When positioning the FS Cuffs, make sure the electrodes uniformly contact
the skin.
• Ventilate the skin by removing the FS Cuffs for at least 15 minutes every
three to four hours.
If skin irritation or a skin reaction occurs, stop using your NESS L300 Plus
System immediately. Contact your clinician, dermatologist, or Bioness Clinical
Specialist. Resume use only when the skin is completely healed. Then follow
a skin conditioning protocol per the recommendation of your health-care
specialist.
