How to Use

How to attach cotton to the electrode head

1. Remove the cotton stopper from the electrode head.
2. Place a piece of cotton on top of the electrode head and press the cotton stopper down over the cotton.
   • If the cotton stopper does not fit properly on the electrode head, please use a larger and thinner piece of cotton. Because thick cotton pads are difficult to fix in place, split them in half before use.
   • If the cotton is too thick, the thermal action of RF treatment may be adversely affected and you will feel less heat.
3. Apply your regular skin lotion or gel onto the cotton.
   • Make sure the skin lotion or gel coats the entire surface of the electrode head.
   • If using a waterly (low-viscosity) skin lotion, the feeling of warmth may decrease.
   • Recommended skin lotions: RF Booster Pad (page 21) or high-viscosity skin lotions.
   • If the cotton pad becomes dry, add more skin-care product. Cotton pads may easily come off from the device when they are dry.

Troubleshooting

Checklist for Possible Problems

Frequently Asked Questions

achieve better results with sufficient use of lotions and/or gel.

As a general guide, when using cotton pads, be sure the entire electrode head is moistened with face lotion.

Use about two pearl-sized drops of gel.

We recommend adding more lotion or gel if you feel there is not enough.

Can I use the device in the bathroom?

|

This product is not waterproof, so it must not be used in the bathroom.

Also, do not use the device near water (such as in a kitchen, washroom, etc.).

My skin feels hot after use.| This is due to the heat of the RF.

If it bothers you, use COOL Mode or apply blue ice to cool your skin down.

Why do I feel a tingly sensation on my face and hands?| This tingly sensation is caused by electrical stimulation from ions/EMS/DYHP.

It is possible to adjust the level using the mode button.

Use the device at a strength that feels comfortable for you.

Use only Level 1 upon the first use and until you are accustomed to use.

Why do I not feel warmth of RF when using CLEAN, MOIST or EYE modes?

|

Move the electrode head more slowly or press harder against the skin surface.

It is also possible that the moisture absorbed in the cotton is insufficient. Add more lotion or gel.

Why can’t I see any dirt on the cotton?| Dirt is removed even though it may not be visible on the cotton. The amount of visible dirt on the cotton can vary among individuals.

The electrode head does not warm up when I use RF mode.

|

The RF does not warm the electrode head. Rather, it uses the power of electricity to warm your skin.
