Since the skin tone and its sensitivity vary from one body part to another, a
patch test should be performed on each part of the body that is to be treated.
• First check the tone of your skin by comparing it to the table on the package
and in the instruction manual.
• Identify a small area that is to be treated.
• Shave the area that is to be treated.
• After setting the lowest power level, apply the treatment surface (2) to the area.
The appliance will automatically emit a light pulse. If no discomfort is felt after
the pulse, increase the power to the next level, move the treatment surface
(2) on the adjacent skin area to emit a new pulse. Increase the power level
on each subsequent area of skin until the maximum level indicated for the
skin type is reached (as indicated in the Skin A tone range). A feeling of heat
can be felt on the skin during the treatment, and this is normal. If discomfort
is felt, the maximum tolerable power level is the previous one.
• Check the area after 1 hour: if there is no reddening and/or discomfort, it is
possible to start treatment in the tested area at the last energy level setting.
If redness persists, the maximum tolerable power level for your skin type is
the previous one. Repeat the patch test on every part of your body that you
wish to treat.

Even though it is extremely rare, if hypersensitivity should persist for over 24
hours, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
WarNiNG! the power output directly affects the result,
however, due to the principle of heat of the treatment,
the maximum limit tolerated by one's skin must not be
exceeded. this limit is normally high for fair skin and
low for dark skin because melanin, that darkens the
skin, increases the production of heat.
Do Not exceed the maximum limit that your skin
tolerates with no discomfort whatsoever.

•
Remove all jewellery before use.
•
The skin must be shaved, clean, dry, with no make-up, anti-perspirant
or deodorant.
•
On your face, if there are few and thin dark hairs to be treated, it is not
necessary to shave the area, only trim them shorter with scissors. If the
hairs are very short (approximately 1-2 mm) and not too thick, there is no
need to shave nor trim them.
•
Moles, birthmarks, dark spots, tattoos and lips must be covered with a
white pencil or white patches.
