Facial Treatment (women only)

Using Venus Naked Skin to remove
®
unwanted facial hair requires care and
special guidance to prevent any possible
adverse reaction. It is recommended
that before treating the face, other body
areas are treated first.
Avoid tanning including outdoor sun
bathing, tanning treatments in a salon
before and during treatment, or use of
a tanning lotion or cream before and
during treatment as the device may not
work for you. Further, darker skin may
absorb too much light energy, which may
cause discomfort/pain.
IMPORTANT:
• Do not treat the eyebrows or areas
around the eyes, the scalp, the
nostrils, the ears.
• Do not use on moles or any dark
(pigmented) areas.
Before Treatment
1. Determine if the face may be treated,
by using the skin color chart and the
skin tone sensor. Because the face is
unavoidably exposed to sunlight, it
may be darker than other body areas.
2. Perform a patch test: test your skin
for reaction in a hair-free area below
the ear (see chapter titled "Patch
Test").
3. After this patch test, wait 48 hours,
examine the treated area and if it
appears normal, begin treating the
upper lip, chin or jaw.

Getting started

1. Remove all cosmetics, lotions and
creams (including self tanning) from
the area you wish to treat.
2. Remove any visible hair.
3. Use the skin tone sensor to confirm
suitability for treatment. Do NOT use if
the skin tone sensor indicates red (IIIII).
Always start with the lowest setting
when using on the face, regardless of
the skin tone sensor reading. This may
require you to manually reduce the
energy level to the lowest setting (IIII)
if you are a lighter skin tone (I-III). Do
this by pressing the white button on
the skin tone sensor until the lowest
setting is lit (IIII).
Treating the face, cheek and jaw
1. Apply a thick layer of Activating
Gel to the area to be treated (see
illustration below).
2. Wipe excess gel from your hands.
3. You may choose to use a mirror to
help position the handset for treating
facial areas.
4. Select a spot on the edge of the
treatment zone. Place handset firmly
on the skin so that both contact bars
on the outer corners of the treatment
window are placed in the Activation
Gel that is on the skin surface. The
white light of the Activation button
signals you have the proper contact.
If the white light does not appear, be
sure to adjust the handset so that both
bars remain in contact with the skin.
IMPORTANT:
Before pressing the activation button,
close your eyes or look away as the
light is very bright.
5. Press the Activation button.
You may feel a warm sensation.
