Health technology: ‘’A health technology is the application of organized knowledge and skills in the
form of devices, medicines, vaccines, procedures and systems developed to solve a health problem
and improve quality of lives.’’ – World Health Organization.
What? Application of organized knowledge and skills
How? In the form of devices, medicines, vaccines, procedures, and systems.
Why? Developed to solve a health problem and improve quality of lives.
If a device is used during a skin treatment for example a phone this device will therefore be called a
skincare/health technology cause of the definition.
Different parameters were used to show visible or non-visible results of the treatment.
There are different kind of energies that can be used during a treatment energy such as: Mechanical
(pressure), electrical, light, sound or chemical.
Pressure stocking: Addition of pressure Movement of body fluid Effect: drainage
,Electrical epilation: Addition of electrical energy absorption by local molecules (negative charge
(the needle) causing a reaction with the Sodium Na and Chloride Cl in the skin this makes a formation
of caustic soda in hair follicle disruption of protein structure) Effect: death of stem cells in hair
follicle.
Laser epilation: Addition of light energy absorption by local molecules (increase of movement of
the particles disruption of protein structure) Effect: death of stem cells in hair follicle
Peeling: Addition of chemical energy absorption by local molecules (Increase of chemical reaction
by addition of highly reactive particles disruption of protein structure) Effect: removal of
keratinocytes
1: Buying equipment
Different skin disorders that can be treated with technology.
Why should you buy new equipment?
Is there a viable reason to purchase new equipment?
The equipment has proven efficacy.
The equipment is highly recommended by the Skin Therapy Society
These are treatment gasp in my clinic that I need to fulfill to maintain my client’s needs and to sustain
my clients.
Viable decision: Cheaper is not better More expensive is not better The most efficacious is best
(you want result) Be in business for the long term Ensure your equipment is registered with your
local regulator body. (Protect you from faulty equipment)
What to do?
Ask your colleague and peers.
Why did your peer purchase this equipment?
Is this equipment reliable? (Breakdown, cost effective)
Has their distributor been supportive? (Training, service)
What level of training did the distributor supply?
Ask your Professional Skin Therapy Society.
Befriending your distributor: Attend the conferences or expos, take time to research, try before you
buy, manufacturer: who, where and what are they? How long has the distributor been in business?
Equipment Review forums: Are the patients satisfied with their result?
, Go to review forums, observe the dialogue and ratings.
What has been the response to these treatments?
List the adverse events and address them with the distributor.
What is the positive feedback?
What is your general feeling about the forum feedback?
When to say ‘no’?
The equipment is not registered in your country.
The distributor does not provide sufficient support.
The lease repayment will burden your business. (Can you afford it?)
There is an over supply in your area. Therefore, you will look for a ‘point of difference’.
There is new equipment being released in the next twelve months and you will prefer to wait.
Conclusion: Be curious and resilient, research, distributors’ responsibility, business
responsibility.
2: Consumer and international law
Consumer Law: Your business and the distributor are bound by the law of your country.
What is your country’s consumer law? (This is online available)
What are your rights as the consumer of capital equipment?
Has your contract been reviewed by a consumer lawyer?
Do not be pressured to sign until you have completed your research.
Research the distributor. How do they conduct business? (Service, training)
How does International Law protect you?
Machines are manufactured in many countries.
How does the distributor support their obligations of International Law?
You must address this at the time of researching/ not after the sale.
Did you know that if a company ceases to manufacture a machine, they are still obliged to provide
parts for several years?
The local distributor’s responsibility: What is the warranty?
