Helpful information
Are thermographic plates reusable?
Yes, plates are reusable.
Why are there at least 2 plates in each thermographic set?
Because each person has their own skin temperature. It is necessary to have at least 2 thermographic plates in order to test cellulite and body fat in areas of the body with different skin temperatures.
Why is it recommended to use contact thermography for cellulite analysis when it can be done by palpation?
Because with the help of contact thermography it is possible to determine the initial stages of cellulite, which are very difficult to detect manually or visually, as well as to show the presence of cellulite to the client and the need for its treatment/procedures. This testing will help the specialist start treatment earlier and choose the best procedures.
Is thermographic analysis harmful to health?
Yes, thermographic testing is completely safe for health, painless and has no contraindications.
Why are there multiple plates in each set/system?
We supply systems with 2,3,4 or 6 thermographic plates, as the body (skin) temperature is different for each person, according to the stage of cellulite or the type of subcutaneous fat. The temperature spread is divided into several plates, each of which operates in a certain, given temperature range.
Usage
Can the thermographic plates only be used on the thighs or can they also be used on other areas of the body?
For thermographic systems designed for cellulite analysis, the plates have been designed for use on the thighs, areas of the body most prone to cellulite. Regarding systems that test the type of body fat, plates can be used on the abdomen; the top system allows you to test the fat also on the arms and calves.
How many tests can be done with each plate?
The thermal plate does not have any maximum number of tests. If the plate is used in accordance with the instructions and properly stored, the minimum period of use of the plates is 3 or 5 years, depending on the type of system.
How to determine the correct insert from the ones in the set?
Thermographic systems with 3 or more plates are supplied with a special tool – ITS (Ideal Thermoplate Selector), which allows you to quickly and easily determine the optimal plate for use. In any case, it is recommended to learn how to determine the optimal insert manually, without using ITS (read the instructions carefully).
Do I need to take a special course to use contact thermography?
No, it is enough to study the documentation and instructions that come with each thermal imaging system.
What do the colors that can be seen on the thermal plate mean?
Each color indicates a certain temperature of the skin, in accordance with a clear color scale. It is important to understand that the presence and stage of cellulite is not determined by the colors, but by the type of thermographic image that appears on the plate. When performing a body fat analysis, color matters to distinguish between harder fat and softer fat.
What color on the thermographic plate indicates the presence of cellulite or fat?
In case of cellulite analysis, attention should be paid not only and not so much to the color, but to the type of thermographic image (read the instructions carefully). When testing body fat, the color on the plate matters more.
How to properly hold a thermal plate when you need to take a photo of it?
Only the top thermographic system comes with a plate holder. Otherwise, the plate may be held by a client or assistant. It is always necessary to firmly attach the plate to the body at the moment when taking a picture.
What happens if you use a non-optimal thermal plate?
Thermographic plates are a completely safe and painless diagnostic tool. If a non-optimal plate is used, the test result will not be objective and will need to be redone.
How hard should the plate be applied to the skin?
The plate must be in good contact with the skin in order for the thermographic image to fully appear (at least in the central part of the plate) – the waiting period is approximately 15-20 seconds.
How to make a thermographic analysis on the body area called "culotte de cheval"?
We advise you to place the client on the folding bed, stomach down and then do the test.
Why do thermographic plates develop images on other parts of the body as well?
Thermographic plates are sensitive to changes in human body temperature, but they were designed for use only in those areas of the skin where cellulite is most often manifested or there is a subcutaneous fat adiposity.
How to use ITS?
Thermographic systems supplied with 3 or more plates are equipped with an ITS optimal plate indicator to help you quickly and easily select the best plate. The ITS must be applied to the body at the precise location where cellulite or body fat testing is to be performed. After a few seconds, the ITS will show the optimal plate number. If 2 plate numbers appear at the same time, side by side, the plate with the higher number must be used. It is extremely useful, however, to learn how to choose the optimal plate without using ITS.
Should the client lie on the folding bed? Can he/she also stand or lie on his/her stomach or back?
For correct testing, it is recommended to lie down, on the stomach, on the back or on the side. The thermographic analysis can in any case also be done standing up.
Thermographic images must strictly correspond to those given on the poster for interpretation?
No, the poster is provided to help the specialist, as an example of possible images.
The thermal plate remains black and does not change color - is it defective?
No, it’s not. If the plate remains dark and does not change color, this indicates that the temperature of the body/skin is below the temperature range of this plate or the room temperature is too low (less than 20°C). It is necessary to use the optimal plate that responds to lower temperatures and repeat the test.
The thermal plate is dark blue - is it defective?
No, it’s not. If the plate has a dark blue color, it means that the temperature of the body/skin in the examined area is higher than the temperature range of the plate used, or the temperature in the room is too high (above 26°). It is necessary to use a different plate with a higher temperature range and repeat the test.
