Energy Level
Energy level determines the intensity of the Silk'n Glide™ light pulse delivered to your skin. As energy
level increases, so does hair removal results as well as the risk of possible side effects and complications.
Glide™ offers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to 5 (the highest), represented by 5 ENERGY
LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHTS.
The energy level set for the treatments determines the number of pulses the device can produce.
Whenever Silk'n Glide™ is turned on its energy level will automatically be reset to the lowest energy
level. Only one ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHT will be on. To set the energy level, press the
CENTRAL BUTTON repeatedly to increase the energy level from 1 to 5 and from 5 directly back to 1 .
9. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. As
soon as the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING
INDICATOR LIGHT will start blinking slowly.
10. Press the PULSE TRIGGER. The device will first determine the color of your skin. If the color of the skin is
light enough for safe application, the device will flash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the READY/SKIN
TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT will turn off. You will see a bright flash of light and simultaneously
hear a subtle pop sound, which is a normal noise for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth
and tingling.
Silk'n Glide™ will immediately recharge for the next pulse.
After a few seconds (depending on the set energy level) the READY/SKIN TONE WARNING
INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on again, and start blinking slowly when attached again to the skin.
11. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.
12. Choose a method of application for your session. Glide™ can be applied in two ways: "Pulsing" and
"Gliding" (for more details see application methods frame below).
For the PULSING method, follow steps 9-11 above on another spot repeatedly until the entire area
is fully covered.
For the GLIDING method, hold the PULSE TRIGGER down continuously, and slide the device
smoothly along the treated area.
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Methods of application
PULSING
PULSING is the best technique for working with higher energy levels as it enables better control of skin
coverage. When pulsing, Glide™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row
