INTRODUCING TRIPOLLAR®STOP VX
OVERVIEW
TriPollar
®
Stop VX presents the latest in RF technology at the comfort
of your home. The revolutionary TriPollar
®
Stop VX combines two effective
technologies – the groundbreaking TriPollar
®
Multi-RF technology (RF) and
Dynamic Muscle Activation (DMA) that work simultaneously to deliver non-
invasive collagen remodeling and muscle activity, as well as skin tightening
and treatment of wrinkles.
TriPollar
®
Stop VX affects homogeneously all layers of the dermis and the
superficial muscle layer, for faster, safer and more effective treatment. It delivers
professional-level aesthetic results that are both immediate and long-lasting.
TriPollar
®
Stop VX users enjoy the combined benefits of a unique non-conductive
gel that ensures the delivery of focused RF energy into the right layers of the
dermis using the newly designed electrodes. The temperature sensor ensures an
effective and safe treatment while stimulating dermal activity that accelerates
the natural production of collagen, the protein responsible for the skin’s smooth
and supple texture.
Simultaneously, DMA targets the SMAS layer, toning and lifting it by stimulating
gentle muscle contractions inducing a "face lift" effect. The TriPollar
®
Stop VX
system is intended for non-invasive skin renewal at home, specifically indicated
for skin tightening and treatment of wrinkles.
Using TriPollar
®
Stop VX regularly according to its recommended treatment can
effectively postpone the signs of aging.

FIG.11 FIG.12FIG.10FIG.9
5. Plug the power supply into an electrical outlet (FIG.12)
6. Remove the TriPollar®Preparation Gel from its box.
Important: Before using the device for the first time, it is recommended
to perform a patch test 24 hours prior to initial use. To do so, apply a small
amount of TriPollar®Preparation Gel to the inner arm and treat the area
with the TriPollar®Stop VX device. Ensure that the skin does not have a
negative reaction to the gel or treatment.
7. Remove the protective cover from the device.

15
TREATING YOUR SKIN
To treat your skin using the TriPollar®Stop VX device:
1. Cleanse and dry the treatment area.
2. Apply a very thin, even layer of TriPollar®Preparation Gel over the entire
treatment area (face and/or neck). This gel must be used during the
entire treatment session. Your skin may feel a warm sensation when
the gel is applied.
3.
Turn the device ON by pressing the Power button (FIG.13). Make sure that
the green indicator light turns ON.
Note: A long press of the Power button turns the device OFF.
4.
Select the RF power setting (Low/High) that is most comfortable for you. When
the green indicator light shows a single green light illuminated (FIG.14), the
device is operating at the Low power level. You can press the Power button
again to change to the High power level (FIG.15).
Important: During your first treatment session, it's recommended to
use the Low power setting and then adjust the power level according
to your skin’s tolerance for subsequent treatments.

16
Treatment:
5. Divide the face to 3 treatment areas (FIG.16):
Right cheek
Left cheek
Forehead
6. Place the device on your skin, make sure to apply a slight pressure in
order to assure a full contact between the electrodes and the skin.
7. Start moving the device in a very slow circular motion on a
small part of your treatment area (approximately twice the size
of the treatment head), slowly heating your skin to the optimal
temperature (FIG.17).
Important: Be sure to constantly move the device slowly over the skin
to ensure proper heating of the treated area. Do not keep the device on
one place without movement.

8. Once the orange indicator light illuminates followed by a 'beep' sound, you
have reached the optimal temperature. Continue the same slow circular
motion for a few moments and then gradually enlarge your movements
in the treatment area.
Proceed with this technique covering the entire treatment area, making
sure the orange indicator light is illuminated as much as possible during
the treatment.
As you move from one treatment area to another (FIG.16), the orange
indicator light may turn-off if the temperature of the skin is not warm
enough.
9. Continue working on the entire treatment area in a slow circular motion for
4-5 minutes. Make sure to maintain a uniform heating while covering the
entire treatment area. Treatment can be augmented by “lifting” movements
from the jaw line upwards toward your cheeks.
10.Once you finished the 4-5 minutes of treatment, you can proceed to the
next treatment area repeating steps 6-9.
11. Switch to RF + DMA mode. It's recommended to start at the Low power
level.
Important: Use the RF + DMA mode ONLY on the jaw line area
(FIG.18). Do not use on other facial areas.

12. Start moving the device using a very slow linear motions along the jaw line.
13. To ensure optimal results, use the device for 5 minutes on each side.
After the entire treatment area has been treated, the treatment session is
complete. As a natural result of the treatment, the skin may show some
redness (erythema) and minor skin swelling (edema) in the treatment
area. Both should disappear after a short time.
14.Press the Power button for two seconds to turn the device OFF.
15.Unplug the power supply from the electrical outlet.
16.Gently remove the TriPollar®Preparation Gel from your skin and wash
your face. You can apply a moisturizer if desired.
17. Clean the electrodes of the device with a damp cloth or paper towel and
cover the device tip with its protective cover.
Warning: Do not submerge the TriPollar®Stop VX device under
water.
Safety Mechanism:
The device’s automatic temperature-optimization mechanism protects the
skin from overheating. When the skin has reached the maximal temperature, the
energy source will shut down automatically. The indication is - green LED off.
The device automatically turns the energy source back ON, when the skin
temperature drops below the maximal temperature or when you move the
device to an adjacent treatment area, where the skin temperature is lower.
The indication is - green LED on.
Important:
The orange light is ON when the skin temperature in the treatment area is
sufficiently heated and is OFF when it is not.
