6.3 Pre-treatment preparation
C
Remove all jewelrey on or near the treatment area before use.
1. Before treating an area, the skin should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders,
antiperspirants or deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out.
EN
C
Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol (including perfumes, sanitizers, or other
applications containing alcohol), or acetone to clean the skin before use.
C
Do not use the device if the treatment surface (#10) is broken or missing.
2. Be sure to cover up moles, warts or other marks on the skin that should not be treated. Use
a material that does not absorb the light such as a white cloth or white medical tape.
6.4 Do a spot test
It's important to do a spot test on each part of the body you wish to treat. A spot test checks
that the skin color is suitable for treatment, and that you know which energy level is comfortable
for the area you are treating. Both skin color and energy level may vary depending on the target
treatment area.
1. Press the control button (#3) to turn on the device. The automatic energy level setting
indicator light (green) (#4) will go on.
2. Place the treatment surface (#10) on your skin and press the pulse button (#7) to deliver
one pulse. Make sure your hand touches the base electrode (#8) together with the pulse
button (#7). When the treatment surface (#10) is in full contact with the skin, the ready
light / skin tone warning indicator light (#6) will start blinking green slowly.
3. If you do not experience abnormal discomfort press the control button (#3) again. This will
increase the energy level by one increment.
4. Press the pulse button (#7) with your hand touching the base electrode (#8) to deliver
another pulse on a different spot at energy level 2. Continue testing at increased energy
levels. Use the energy levels indicated on the skin color chart. When you find the highest
energy level that is comfortable for that treatment area, you can start your treatment.
C
Use a lower energy level if you experience discomfort.
You are now ready to perform a treatment.
6.5 Treatment steps
1. Press the control button (#3). The device will turn on, the automatic energy level setting
indicator light (#4) will be green, and a fan sound will start.
2. After pressing the control button (#3), the ready light /skin tone warning indicator light
(#6) will be green. The device is then ready to use at the lowest energy level. Always start at
energy level 1 for your first treatment.
3. Set the energy level. Press the control button (#3) repeatedly to increase the energy level
until you have the level you want. The energy level indicator lights (#5) indicate the energy
level setting (see section 4.6 Energy levels). The number of energy level indicator lights (#5)
that are on, indicates the energy level selected.
