Joule

that take all of the knowledge and information and content you have about your company and expose it to these agents that will automate the thousands of things that happen in your company.

And the interface to that is Joule Work, J-O-U-L-E.

A joule is a unit of energy like a watt, if you know what a watt is.

or a BTU.

If a practitioner uses the wrong setting, they are entirely bypassing the skin and pushing intense electrical energy directly into the fat.

And this is where Ohm's law and Joule's law come into play.

I hadn't thought about high school physics in 20 years, but the way the dermatologists explained this was absolutely fascinating.

It perfectly explains exactly why these aesthetic treatments can go catastrophically wrong in the hands of an undertrained technician.

Joule's law of heating states that the thermal heat generated by an electrical current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the electrical resistance of the tissue it is traveling through.

Right.

The formula is power equals current squared times resistance.

Now, some aggressive devices on the market can drive those energy emitting needles four, five, or even seven millimeters deep, plunging straight into the fat layer.

And this is where Ohm's Law and Joule's Law completely dictate the outcome.

Let's unpack the physics here.

Different biological tissues conduct electricity differently based on their resistance, which is measured in ohms.

So fat has massive electrical resistance, roughly two thousand ohms.

It is ten times more resistant to the electrical current than the skin above it.

So when the needle pulses electricity, what does Joule's law say happens?

Joule's law states that the heat generated by an electrical current is directly proportional to the resistance of the tissue it is traveling through.

I didn't have that luxury.

Ohm's law, Watt's law, Joule's law, not even L.A. law seemed to have an answer.

L.A. law.

Okay.
