Get to know your device
5.1 Device description
The device is an anti-aging face treatment device that utilizes HT™
technology. This technology combines three kinds of energy: Infrared (IR) Heat
Energy that affects the upper layer of skin for improved skin texture, LED
Light Energy that reaches into the dermis for rejuvenation and collagen
restoration, and BiPolar Radio Frequency energy (Bi-Polar RF) that penetrates
deep into the sub-dermal fat for deep tissue tightening and wrinkle reduction.
The device has a treatment surface with 3 electrodes and a control button with
5 surrounding indicator lights. The device has a rechargeable battery for
cordless use and a wall adapter for connection to the main supply.
5.2 Intended use
The device is an over-the-counter hand-held device intended for the temporary
reduction in the appearance of mild to moderate facial wrinkles and skin
tightening. The device is for self-treatment in the home and is not suitable
for commercial purposes. Do not use for any purpose other than as described in
this user manual

Treatments
6.1 Treatment areas
There are 6 treatment areas for the face and neck.
Treatment Area | Purpose |
---|---|
1. Forehead: including between the eyebrows | Tightens the skin |
2. Left cheek: including around and below the eyes | Treats fine lines and |
builds volume
3. Right cheek: including around and below the eyes| Tightens and eliminates
wrinkles
4. Upper lip: including the nasolabial fold| Tightens and eliminates wrinkles
5. Chin: including the jawline| Smooths the skin
6.2 Treatment plan
-
Treat each area separately for at least 15 minutes. You can treat as many areas as you like in one session.
-
For best results, treat at the highest energy level that is comfortable for you.
-
Use the device for 2 sessions a week for 10 weeks. You will begin to see visible results after 5 weeks / 10 treatments.
-
Treat once every 2 weeks after that, to maintain results.
For maximum effectiveness: -
Make sure you have enough gel on the treatment surface (#1) at all times during the treatment.
-
Do not leave the device on one spot of skin. Keep moving the device covering the entire treatment area. This will prevent overheating of the treatment area, and reduce the possibility of any adverse effects.
-
Make sure the 3 electrodes (#2) are always in full contact with the skin.
-
If the energy level feels uncomfortable, reduce it to a level that is comfortable for you.
-
Only change energy levels when the treatment surface (#1) is not in contact with the skin.
6.3 What to expect
During a treatment session it is normal to experience or feel:
- a sensation of warmth.
- some redness or slight swelling: this should subside within a few hours, or up to one day.
6.4 Possible side effects
If you follow the instructions fully and pay attention to all warnings and
contraindications, complications and side effects are uncommon. However, every
cosmetic treatment, including those designed for home use, involves some
degree of risk.
Therefore it is important that you understand and accept the risks and
complications that may occur.
- Excessive edema (swelling) and erythema (redness) are rare reactions to the treatment that, in most cases, subside within a few days. In case these signs appear, immediately use a damp cool cloth to cool the area for at least 15 minutes and apply an anti-burn cream.
- In rare cases, the user may experience dilation of the superficial blood capillaries. This may result in a temporary redness for a few days. Also, some of the capillaries may present red spots that will also reduce with time. If these signs appear, we recommend that you cool the area with chilled water immediately.
Consult your physician if you experience any persistent symptoms including pain, skin redness, swelling, or a burning sensation.
If unexpected side effects, such as itching, occur within 48 hours of your first treatment, seek medical advice before continuing treatments.
Get started!
-
Make sure that your skin is clean and dry, and that you have removed all jewelry.
-
Remove the device and the other components from the box.
-
Remove the protective film that covers the electrodes (#2).
-
Decide if you want to use the device cordlessly or via the main supply.
• Cordless: Check that the battery is not low before you start treatment.
• Mains supply: Place the wall adapter cable (#7) into the wall adapter socket (#6) and connect to the main supply. -
Start the device: Long press the control button (#4). The device starts at energy level 1 automatically, and 1 energy level indicator light (#3) will turn on.
Check that the expiry date of the gel has not passed. -
Apply a thin layer of Silk’n Slider Gel over the treatment surface (#1).
Silken Slider Gel (or any other water-based clear gel) facilitates smooth movement of the treatment surface over the skin and enables conductivity. To ensure safe and efficient treatment, always start by applying Silk’n Slider Gel, and apply more gel if needed. -
Using energy level 1, place the device on the area you want to treat. Make sure that it is in full contact with the skin. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth.
-
Move the device in gentle massage-like motions on the area you wish to treat. Progress slowly and carefully. Keep moving the device ensuring that the 3 electrodes stay in full contact with the skin as you treat the area.
-
With the device constantly in motion, treat each area for at least 15 minutes.
-
Increase the energy level gradually. Using the highest energy level will get the best results, but it’s essential that you set the energy level that is comfortable for the area you are treating.
You will feel the skin temperature rise as you increase the energy level. It usually takes about 1-2 minutes for the device to reach the required temperature. During the treatment, your skin will get a little red. Don’t worry; this is normal. -
Experiment by moving the device slowly across the area you are treating. If the treated area is hot and you feel uncomfortable, try moving the device a little faster.
Stop immediately if you feel any discomfort. -
Clean the treated area: Remove any residual gel from the skin, then rinse the skin with lukewarm water. Dry the skin with a towel, and apply a facial cream to soothe and moisturize the skin.
Cleaning, maintenance & storage
Clean the device after each treatment.
Never immerse your device or any of its parts in the water!
-
Turn off the device, then unplug it.
-
Use absorbent paper (such as toilet paper or wipes) to remove the gel residue off the treatment surface (#1). Ensure you remove all gel residue to prevent the gel from solidifying or damaging the device.
-
Use a clean damp cloth to clean the device and the treatment surface (#1).
You may use cleaning fluids with up to 70% alcohol, but never use acetone or other abrasive liquids, because they will damage your device. -
Finally, wipe the device and the treatment surface (#1) dry with a clean dry cloth.
-
After cleaning, we recommend you store the device in its original box. Store the device and the gel in a cool dry place.
