How to use

Preparing the treatment area
Remove any visible hair on the skin before using the device. You may use your preferred hair removal method. To keep the
treatment window clean and intact and prevent hair burns, ensure there is no hair remaining on the skin surface. Clean the
treatment area and pat it dry.
To power on the device:
Use the mains cord (8) to connect the base station to an electrical outlet. Press the treatment button (5)
to activate the device. The power indicator light (4) lights up once and the fan starts running. This means the device is in
READY mode. During operation, the device will heat up slightly.
Automatic light adaptation
When the skin tone sensor (2) has skin contact, the device reads your skin tone and selects the appropriate light intensity
which is displayed by the power indicator light color.

After 10 minutes without use, the device is automatically deactivated. To reactivate it, press the treatment button.
Patch Test
Before your first treatment, we recommend you test your skin for reaction on a small area of skin of the body part you plan to
treat (about 2 x 3 cm in size; equivalent to the size of two flashes, side by side).
Perform a patch test as described below in chapter «Treatment methods», section «STAMPING».
Wait 24 hours to examine the test area. If the skin appears normal, begin your first treatment. If a skin reaction develops,
discontinue using the device and consult your physician. Do not treat the patch tested area for at least one week after the test.
Treatment methods
The area to be treated must be hair-free, clean and dry. Before pushing the treatment button, look away from the device to
avoid the bright light.
GLIDING
for fast and efficient
treatment
of large areas (e.g. legs).
1. Place the treatment window (1) firmly on your skin. When the entire front area has skin contact, the power indicator (4)
shows pink or white light to confirm that the device is ready to flash.
2. Press and hold the treatment button (5).
The device will begin to flash.
3. Move the device slowly and continuously from the
bottom to the top of the treatment area. Make sure to
always keep full skin contact so that the device flashes
continuously.
Once the gliding stroke is completed, lift the device off the
treatment area. Repeat steps 1-3
to treat the next adjacent area in a parallel stroke.
Make sure you avoid missed areas by placing the treatment window directly next to the previously treated spot without leaving
any space between treated areas. Avoid overlapping treatment or treating the same area twice as this may increase the
chance of producing adverse reactions.
