2 - USE AND SAFETY
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO HANDLE OR USE THE
ULTIMATE CONTOUR SYSTEM. IMPROPER USE CAN CAUSE INJURY
2.1 Indications for Use
The Ultimate Contour is intended for
1. Application of non-thermal radio frequency for relief of minor muscle aches and pains, relief of muscle
spasm, temporary improvement of local blood circulation, and temporary reduction in the appearance
of cellulite.
2. Application of ultrasound for non-invasive reduction in abdominal circumference.
2.2 Contra-Indications
WARNING: The ultrasound handpiece may be audible or create a ringing or buzzing
sensation in the ears that may be very uncomfortable to the patient. Inform the patient of
this prior to treatment and for the patient to immediately indicate if this occurs. Reduce the
intensity setting or discontinue use.
CAUTION: Applicator heads may become warm during treatment. To avoid thermal injury
to the tissue, keep skin wetted with treatment solutions, always keep the handpiece moving
along the tissue, and use the minimum intensity setting necessary to achieve the desired
results.

• Patient should not eat any food at least 2 hours prior to treatment, and at least 1 hour after treatment.
• Patient must not consume any alcoholic beverages at least 48 hours prior and after treatment.
• Ultrasound should only be applied to the waist area. DO NOT apply ultrasound to any other part of the
body.
• Risk of neuromuscular stimulation may occur with Radio Frequency usage, particularly on dry skin
where an electric arc may occur.
• Reports of “fatty”or cloudy urine, and constipation, have been reported following application of the
ultrasound.
• Patient should not participate in a hot shower (warm is OK), hot bath, or sauna immediately after
treatment.
• Avoid use of water-based treatment gels as the water may react to the ultrasound energy.
• Avoid use on patients who are connected to an oxygen supply. DO NOT use in the presence of
ammable gases.
• All treatments performed with this system must be subjected to the same clinical assessment as with
traditional techniques. The patient risk and medical history must be considered and understood before
treatment. Caution must be exercised regarding general medical conditions not already mentioned
which might contraindicate a localized procedure. Medical clearance from the patient’s general
physician is advisable when doubt exists regarding the treatment.

2.5 Performance and Expectations
To demonstrate the stated performance of the ultrasound portion of this device, a clinical study was
conducted to identify the eectiveness of this device to reduce the waist circumference of patients using
the ultrasound portion. This study evaluated a total of 42 individuals who were treated for 30 minutes at an
intensity level of 4 during each treatment session. There were a total of 3 treatment sessions with 5-7 days
interval between sessions. The results show that on average a total waist reduction for the entire regimen
was 2.0 inches. The study included a 4-week follow-up where the overall waist reduction was still holding
at 2.0 inches on average.
This information is provided as a guide to the clinician when discussing expectations and potential results
with the patient.

provided the surge protector features a ground connection (third pin) and is attached to a grounded wall

9
outlet. Use of the Ultimate Contour in abnormally hot or cold temperatures should be avoided. Refer to
Section 9.1 for the preferred operating temperature. If the unit has been stored or transported in extreme
conditions, allow time for the unit to acclimate to room temperature before turning it on and using it.
Ensure that the treatment table the patient will be on has no exposed metal surfaces that the patient may
come in contact with during the treatment.
4.2 Device Unpacking and Setup
When removing the Ultimate Contour unit and accessories, take care to avoid scratching or damaging any
of the components.
• Remove the Ultimate Contour unit from its packaging, and stand the unit upright on a sturdy table or
countertop surface.
• Remove the handpieces from the packaging and place these in proximity to the unit. Take care not to
twist the transducer cable or bend it in a tight loop.
• Remove the power cord from the packaging. Plug the power cord into the back of the unit. Make sure
the power switch on the back of the unit is turned OFF (press on the“O”symbol). Locate a suitable
power outlet as described in Section 4.1 above and plug in the power cord. Make sure the unit is posi-
tioned so that the power cord may be easily disconnected if needed.
• If needed, clean the unit and handpieces as described in Section 6.
4.3 Registration
Before beginning use of the Ultimate Contour, it is highly recommended that you take a moment to
register at www.ultimate-contour.com. Registration facilitates customer service, provides additional infor-
mation regarding the use of the Ultimate Contour, managing patient expectations, and other useful infor-
mation.
4.4 Handpiece Attachment
Prior to use on a patient, ensure the desired handpiece has been cleaned consistent with the instructions
in Section 6.1. When attaching the handpiece connector to the transducer cable, pay careful attention to
the alignment of the connectors. The connectors are designed to only attach in a particular “clock position”.
If you nd the handpiece connector does not attach, DO NOT force it. Slightly rotate the connector and try
again until the indexing feature aligns and the connector clicks into place. To detach, squeeze the silver tab
on the connector while gently pulling the connector out.
Make sure you attach the handpiece you intend to use. The Ultimate Contour is designed to detect which
handpiece is attached (ultrasound or RF) and limit access to controls accordingly. This system is designed
for Bipolar RF emissions. A neutral electrode is not necessary.

5 - DEVICE OPERATION
5.1 Patient Preparation
When scheduling patients for treatment, make sure to advise them of the restrictions and contraindica-
tions identied in Section 2, in particular that the patient should avoid alcohol consumption 48 hours
prior to the treatment, and to avoid food and beverage consumption 2 hours prior to the treatment.
Recommend to the patient to drink at least 1 liter (3 - 12oz bottles) of water per day beginning the day
before the treatment and during the course of the entire treatment regimen. Also review with the patient
any pertinent restrictions and contraindications listed in Section 2, along with general discussion with
the patient regarding their general health and habits, and other existing medical conditions. Advise the
patient that during the course of ultrasound treatment, the patient may hear or experience a soft, high-
pitched sound. It is recommended that any dense body hair present in the treatment area be shaved or at
the very least trimmed to a short length during the course of the treatment regimen. Advise the patient to
bathe prior to the visit, and to avoid use of make-up, lotions, or other topical materials so the skin is nice
and clean.
It is advisable to conduct an initial consult with the patient to discuss patient motivation for these treat-
ments, and particularly to instruct the patient regarding how the procedure works, what sort of outcomes
can be expected, and potential risks that are involved - in particular risks of thermal damage to tissue. This
consult may be arranged in connection with the initial treatment.
It is recommended to use a marker to layout on the patient tissues the treatment area, as well as indicate
individual spot sizes consistent with the diameter of the handpiece. This will help ensure that all of the
treatment area is addressed, and to help avoid overlapping treatment spots - applying excessive energy to
a section of tissue - which could cause thermal damage. Make sure to use a marker that will not get wiped
away by the treatment oils, but will easily clean o after the treatment.
Use a tape measure and/or skinfold calipers as appropriate to document the circumference of body parts
and extent of adipose tissue in the treatment areas. Take measurements prior to the rst treatment, and
following each treatment. To help the patient visualize the eect of the treatments, take photos before the
initial treatment and at various periods during the treatment regimen. Try and be consistent when taking
the photos, such as having the patient stand in the same location and using the same camera settings for
all photos.
When the patient is ready to begin treatment, have them lie down on the treatment table. The operator
should wear protective examination gloves at this point. Make sure clothing is clear from the treatment
area a distance of at least 1 inch. Apply a generous amount of the treatment oil to the area, making sure
the oil evenly coats the entire treatment area and extends beyond the treatment area. If folds or creases of
skin are present, work the oil into these surfaces. Suitable treatment oils are ones with a base content of
oils of grapeseed, canola, palm, rosehip seed, ax, and olive.
5.2 Screens and Settings
Make sure the Ultimate Contour unit is fully set up, and the desired handpiece is attached. Turn on the
power switch on the back of the unit (press the“I”symbol). After a few moments of starting the program-
ming, the display will show the Home Screen.
NOTE: If at any time the treatment needs to be interrupted or the power to the handpiece
stopped for any reason, several methods exist for quick shutdown of the unit:

11
• Press the Stop button on the screen.
• Press the Safety Stop button on top of the unit (the button will glow red when this is
activated).
• Press the power switch on the back of the unit to O (press the“O”symbol).
• Detach the power cord from the back of the unit.
Home Screen
This is the main menu for the unit. From here, you can select
which type of energy you will use (radio frequency or ultra-
sound), select from tutorial videos in the Media section, or
access some basic information and device settings in the
Utilities section. To make a selection on this or any of the
screens, simply touch the“button”on the screen to make your
selection.
Settings Screen
When either the Radio Frequency or Ultrasound energy type
is selected, the display shows the control panel for the respec-
tive treatment. Functions and features common to both screens
are now discussed. Details about specic dierences will be
discussed in Sections 5.3 and 5.4. The Settings Screen shows:
• The recommended body area that should be treated consis-
tent with the handpiece that is attached (highlighted in blue
on the body outline)
• The length of the treatment time that is currently selected
• The relative power level of the energy
• The handpiece that is connected to the unit
Details about specic dierences will be discussed in Sections
5.3. To change the treatment time or the power, press the Up
arrow to increase the value or the Down arrow to decrease the
value. Minutes are selected in quantities of 10 minute incre-
ments from 10 to 40 minutes. Intensity is selected at levels of
1, 2, 3, or 4, with 1 being the lowest intensity level and 4 being
the highest. NOTE: Some time durations and intensity levels may not be available for some handpieces
selected. This helps to ensure safe and eective application of the treatment. The table below indicates the
recommended device settings for the indicated body parts.
Once the settings are selected, press the Ready Button to prepare the system to activate the handpiece.
The Ready button will transition to say “Standby”, and the Start button will appear. At any of these screens,
pressing the Home button will return you to the Home Screen. At this point, you may not make adjust-
ments to the treatment Time and Power. If you need to change either of these, press the Standby button to
return to the Standby screen.
From this screen, you can also select from tutorial videos in the Media section, or access some basic infor-
mation and device settings in the Utilities section.

12
CAUTION: Make sure to select the minimum power level that will achieve the intended results.
The maximum power setting presents increased risk of thermal damage relative to the lower
settings.
Position the handpiece onto the patient at the rst point of exposure. Make sure the skin is
still coated with the treatment oil.
CAUTION: Ensure that the handpiece is in direct contact with the skin prior to starting the
treatment. Air gaps between the handpiece and the tissue may result in an electric shock.
Remind the patient that they may experience a warming sensation during the treatment,
and advise them to indicate if the handpiece feels unbearably hot during the treatment. With
everything prepared, press the Start button on the screen to begin the treatment.
During treatment, the Stop button will be present on the screen. The Time indicator will start counting
down. The device will emit a beep every 10 seconds during countdown. If you need to interrupt treatment
for any reason, or need to lift the handpiece to treat a dierent area, press the Stop button. Reposition
the handpiece as needed, then once the handpiece is in contact with skin again press the Start button
to resume the treatment. The unit will continue counting down time where you left o. If you stop the
treatment early, and then press the Standby button to return to the Standby screen, the time will reset to
the full amount of time you had selected.
CAUTION: Do not lift up the handpiece during treatment. Stop the procedure rst before lifting up the
handpiece. Do not touch the patient with your hands while the handpiece is active.
When 15 seconds remains in the treatment time, the unit will start to beep once a second indicating the
treatment is almost over. Once the timer reaches 0, the unit will automatically deactivate the handpiece
and the system will show the Ready screen. The time will reset to the total that you had originally selected.
Once the treatment is ended, you can lift up the handpiece.
Media Screen
From this screen you can access a number of tutorial videos that
demonstrate use of the Ultimate Contour and address some fre-
quently asked questions. You can also nd an electronic version
of this Owner’s Manual for the Ultimate Contour. Press on any of
the buttons to launch the video, or view the manual. When done
viewing the video or manual, press the Back button at upper left
to return to the Media Screen.

5.3 Radio Frequency Treatment
The Radio Frequency treatment is intended to temporarily improve local blood circulation and provide
temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. This device does not perform surgical or coagulation
functions.
• WARNING - Do not use on or near the face or neck.
• Large - Recommended for the thighs, hips, buttocks, back, arms, waist, and chest.
BODY PART HANDPIECE POWER SETTING TIME (minutes)
Abdomen Large 3-4 10-20
Thigh Large 3-4 10-20
The settings in the table above have been demonstrated to result in the ideal treatment conditions. Failure
to follow the device settings and treatment times as indicated in the table could result in excessive heating
of the tissue, resulting in tissue damage, or could result in ineective treatments and minimal results.
ALWAYS keep the handpiece in motion. Never allow the handpiece to sit stationary on the tissue for more
than a second or two. Traverse the treatment area using a circular, gure 8, or methodical back-and-forth
sweeping motion. A good analogy to think of is
mowing a lawn - consistent sweeping patterns that
just barely overlap, slowly working from one side of
the area to the other. Apply slight pressure into the
skin so the handpiece has a sort of kneading eect
on the tissue. Most eective results is achieved
when folds of skin press up in between the nodes
on the handpiece surface. Once the entire area has
been covered, you can go back to the starting point
and begin the pattern over again.
The Ultimate Contour is designed to have the RF
signal travel between two of the three nodes on
the handpiece. The system alternates which two nodes are active, changing the active nodes in a circular
pattern about once per second. Between the two active nodes, the RF energy travels from one node to the
other. The purpose of these rounded nodes is to create a sort of kneading eect when the handpiece is
worked along the tissue. The tissue will momentarily fold up in between the nodes, allowing the RF energy
to more eectively travel through the skin and achieve its eect.

5.4 Ultrasound Treatment
Some patients may“hear” the ultrasound or experience a ringing sensation in their ears.
Inform them ahead of time that this may occur, and to indicate if it becomes uncomfortable.
Some patients may experience vertigo if they get up too quickly after the ultrasound
treatment. Be thorough when cleaning o the treatment oil after the treatment, as this will
provide time for the patient’s middle ear to reach equilibrium.
The Ultrasound process is indicated only for the waist or central torso area of the body.
DO NOT use ultrasound anywhere else.
ALWAYS keep the handpiece in motion and in contact with the
tissue. Never allow the handpiece to sit stationary on the tissue
for more than a second or two. Traverse the treatment area
using a methodical back-and-forth sweeping motion. A good
analogy to think of is mowing a lawn - consistent sweeping
patterns that just barely overlap, slowly working from one side
of the area to the other. Once the entire area has been covered,
you can go back to the starting point and begin the pattern over
again.
When treating areas with a thinner layer of fatty tissue, consider using lower power levels to avoid thermal
damage to the skin. The image to the right shows the ultrasound intensity prole. The focal point is at
6mm from the surface of the handpiece. The prole shows up to 20mm from the surface.
5.5 Concluding the Treatment
Once the treatment is concluded and the unit has stopped
delivering energy, lift the handpiece away from the patient
tissue. Set the handpiece aside. Use clean towels to wipe away
excess treatment oil from the skin. Assess the treated area. There
may be some redness or slight swelling of the treatment area.
Capture post-treatment photos of the treated area using the
same camera settings as were used for the pre-treatment assess-
ment. If skin fold calipers or other measurement methods were
used for pre-treatment, repeat these as well. To help the patient
visualize the results, you can demonstrate the change using
these images and measurements.
As part of the post-treatment discussion with the patient, several recommendations should be provided
regarding this treatment, and methods to best maintain the results that were just achieved:
• The patient should not eat for at least an hour after the treatment.
• The patient should continue to focus on drinking at least 1 liter of water each day.
• The patient must not consume alcohol for the next 48 hours after treatment.
• Advise the patient to keep the treatment area moisturized.
• Patient should avoid intense sun exposure immediately after treatment. During the overall treatment
regimen, the patient should use sunscreen with a high SPF if prolonged sun exposure is anticipated.
• Avoid taking a hot shower or bath immediately. A warm shower is permitted. Otherwise wait several
hours. Similarly the patient should avoid a sauna or hot tub immediately after the treatment.
• The patient should engage in a medium-impact cardio workout within 4 hours of the treatment. This
helps to stimulate metabolism and lymphatic activity.

15
• Advise the patient to follow a diet regimen that is low in fat, low in complex carbohydrates (starches),
and low in processed or added sugars.
• Advise the patient on an appropriate, weight-loss reduction exercise program.
• Schedule the next treatment appointment with the patient.
• Allow for a minimum of 1 week between single treatments visits, 3 months between treatment
regimens.
Several methods are available to stop the treatment for any reason. Any of these methods will interrupt
energy output by the handpiece:
• Press the Stop button on the screen.
• Press the red Safety Stop button on the back corner of the unit.
• Disconnect the handpiece from the delivery cable.
• Turn o the power switch on the back of the unit.
• Detach the power cord from the back of the unit.

You should ensure the handpiece is clean prior to use on a patient. Ideally, the handpiece should be
cleaned immediately after use, and then stored in such a manner that the handpiece is not likely to get
dirty until needed again. Clean all plastic and metal surfaces of the handpiece.
To clean the handpiece, moisten a towel or cloth with a solution of warm water mixed with soap or a mild,
non-abrasive detergent. Thoroughly wipe all surfaces of the handpiece. For the RF handpieces in partic-
ular, ensure that you wipe around the contact nodes. After cleaning with soap, the handpieces should be
treated with a disinfection solution, such as a 1-3% glutaraldehyde solution or 0.2% peracetic acid solution.
The handpiece should be visibly wet and remain so for at least 5 minutes. You may need to reapply the
disinfection solution to achieve this. After the ve minutes, use a new dry towel or cloth to pat-dry the
handpiece. Ensure the handpiece is fully dry before next use.
After each use, look over the handpiece and check for any aws that might appear, such as cracks or build
up on the handpiece contact surface, exposed or worn wiring, or unusual discoloration of the handpiece. If
any of these are observed, contact Ideal Curves or your distributor to arrange for a replacement.
WARNING: DO NOT immerse the handpiece. Avoid getting the connector wet that is on the
end of the handpiece.
WARNING: DO NOT use the handpiece if it is damaged, cracked, or shows signs of aws.
Prior to use, it may be helpful to briey wipe down the handpiece with a cloth moistened with an isopropyl
alcohol solution. CAUTION: Ensure the alcohol has fully evaporated before using.
6.2 Unit Cleaning
The surfaces of the Ultimate Contour unit and cords may be cleaned using a towel or cloth moistened
with a solution of warm water mixed with soap or a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Before cleaning the
unit, make sure to unplug the power supply cord from the wall outlet. Wipe the surfaces down as needed.
We recommend that a dry towel be used to dry o the unit after cleaning. Avoid letting pooled moisture
collect on the unit.
WARNING: DO NOT immerse or spray water onto the unit. Avoid forcing excess liquid into the
fan vents on the unit.

6.3 Fuse Replacement
The Ultimate Contour unit contains electrical fuses that can be replaced by the operator. FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, and detach the power cord from the back of the unit.
2. Make sure the power switch is set to O (press on the“O”symbol).
3. Use a small blade screwdriver to dislodge the fuse compartment that is between the power switch and
the power cord connection.
4. Remove the fuse compartment.
5. Inside the compartment cover, remove the two fuses.
6. Install the two new fuses. WARNING: Make sure you install Type T2A250V fuses. Replacement fuses
may be obtained from Ideal Curves (see Section 9.2). Failure to use the correct fuses may prevent the
equipment from functioning properly, may damage the equipment, or may increase the risk of electric
shock.
7. Return the fuse compartment to the back of the unit. Make sure the
wording on the compartment is right-side up. Be sure to press the com-
partment completely into place.
8. Reconnect the power cord to the back of the unit. Plug the power cord into
the wall outlet.
9. Turn on the power switch (press the“I” symbol). If the fan turns on and the
screen lights up, then the fuse replacement has been successful.
DANGER: Failure to follow these instructions may result in electric
shock.

8 - TROUBLESHOOTING
A number of commonly encountered issues are addressed in this section. It is recommended that you
review these suggestions and follow directions to correct an issue before contacting customer service.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
The screen is dark - nothing is showing. Make sure the power cord is attached and plugged in.
Make sure the power switch on the back of the unit is turned
on (press the“I”symbol on the switch).
Check and replace the fuses (see Section 6.3).
A warning screen is showing on the
display.
Follow the directions and information provided on the
screen before pressing the Clear button.
The red Safety Switch is glowing. The button has been pressed. Press the button again - the
light should turn o.
The volume on the unit is too loud or
too soft.
Go to the Utilities screen and adjust the volume as desired.
A warning screen says no handpiece,
or the wrong handpiece, is attached
but I know the correct handpiece is
connected.
Check the handpiece connector and make sure it is fully
connected and secured.
Try attaching another handpiece and operating that
handpiece. If the other handpiece works, then there may be
a problem with the intended handpiece and should not be
used.
The handpiece feels hot and/or
the patient complains of a burning
sensation.
Some warmth is normal as this indicates the procedure is
working. If the heat is intolerable, use a lower power setting.
Also ensure an ample amount of treatment oil is applied to
the treatment area.
Tissues with less adipose tissue may get hotter relative to
highly fatty tissue. Adjust the power intensity accordingly.
Treated tissue is red or appears
swollen.
Slight redness is a natural outcome of the treatment. In case
of extreme redness, reduce the power intensity.
There doesn’t appear to be any change
in the treated tissue.
Increase the power intensity. Leaner tissue will not change as
much since there is less fat to remove.
The unit is saying the temperature is
too high.
Check and make sure the handpiece is not extraordinarily
hot.
Make sure the unit is being used at ambient temperatures as
described in Section 9.1.
WARNING MESSAGES
High Temperature - The unit and/or
handpiece has reached excessive tem-
peratures.
Make sure the unit is being used in a place with ambient
temperature (see Section 9.1).
Stop the treatment and allow the unit to sit for 5 minutes.
Timer Error - The unit’s internal clock is
not working properly.
Turn the unit o, wait 10 seconds, then turn the unit back on.
If this issue persists, contact Customer Service.
Current Fault - Excessive electrical
power has occurred within the unit.
Turn the unit o, wait 10 seconds, then turn the unit back on.
If this issue persists, contact Customer Service.
