Tests have proven that the risk of cross contamination with traditional machines due to possible backflow of liquids and circulation of contaminated air within the handpiece is not just possible, but likely. For the safety of both the technician and the client, the Nouveau Contour Needle Cartridge System works unlike anything on the market today. The needle and the needle "tube" are integrated in one disposable cartridge system. Internal diaphragms halt and prevent fluid and airborne contaminants from entering the hand piece, which is therefore completely independent of the disposable cartridge. The system is therefore void of any possibility of cross-contamination.
International governmental agencies have become extremely concerned with the threat of fluid cross-contamination to the handpiece. The patented Nouveau Contour Needle Cartridge System addresses these concerns (US-Pat. #6,505,530 and #6,345,553). Verifiably, traditional machines are subject to and likely to experience airborne and fluid cross-contamination.
Nouveau Contour realizes that it is imperative that the disposable tube/needle cartridges be sterilized. Each cartridge is packed separately in a class 100.000 clean room and sterilized using EO gas to prevent disease transmission. The entire cartridge, which contains the needle, can then be disposed of properly.
Another safety feature is that when the cartridge is detached from the hand piece the needle automatically retracts back into the cartridge, preventing an accidental "stick" to the technician, or client.

Even at the end of the procedure, the points of the needles are in the exact position as at the beginning of the procedure. Nouveau Contour guarantees quality every time.
