treatment window in contact with the skin, press the trigger button and wait for the flash. Only shoot once
before moving the device to the next treatment area ensuring there are no gaps or overlaps in the treated
area. Wait for the status indicator LED to stop flashing (up to 3.5 seconds) before pressing the pulse button
again.
During both treatment methods you will see a bright flash, hear a popping noise and may feel a mild
stinging and/or heat sensation.

Facial treatment

Always use the precision facial adapter included.
The facial skin is a sensitive area that requires special care and caution. Make sure you follow all instructions
and safety precautions carefully in order to avoid adverse effects.
Start the treatment on level 1 and increase only if the treatment is comfortable.
The precision facial adaptor included in the pack is specifically designed to make the treatment of smaller
areas easier, such as the upper lip.
Fitting the facial adaptor
Clip the precision facial adaptor over the treatment window (aligning the curved edge
with the button on the front of the device).
Warning!
1) Do not use the device on the face above the cheek line, around the eyes, eyebrows or
eyelashes as this could cause serious eye damage.
2) Do not use the device to treat hair growth in the nose and ears (see page 4).
3) Make sure you do a spot test 48 hours prior to treatment to determine suitability. The
Spot Test can be carried out on a hair-free area such as below the ear or the side of the
neck.
Warning
4) Use a mirror to help you place the applicator correctly on the treatment area.
5) Follow the instructions for use (see page 5) with additional care to the following specific area instructions.
Note: Facial Hair may be hormonal and as such, it can take more sessions to achieve a permanent hair
reduction.

better spread treatment area.

each area up to 5 times, moving from one side of the jaw/cheek to
the other.
