3. Safety features

The device has these features to protect your skin from overheating.

Thermal sensor and heat stabilizer: These measure the skin temperature, stabilize the heat energy and prevent overheating. When the skin temperature reaches 43°C, the stabilizer will automatically stop emitting heat, until the skin temperature lowers enough for the stabilizer to resume heating.
Movement sensor: Enables the device to generate RF only when you are moving the device across your skin.

4. Get to know your device

4.1 Device description

The device is a face treatment device which utilizes Home Technology™. The device combines several kinds of energy:
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), Infrared, and Bi-Polar Radio Frequency energy (Bi-Polar RF) that treat the upper layer, dermis and deep sub-dermal fat to improve the skin’s appearance and reduce wrinkles.

The device has a treatment surface with 3 electrodes and a control button with 5 surrounding indicator lights. The device has a rechargeable battery and is for cordless use only. A wall adapter is supplied to charge the device.

4.2 Intended use

The device is an over-the-counter home use device intended for the non- invasive treatment of mild to moderate facial wrinkles for adult women who have Fitzpatrick skin types I-IV (see the color chart at the front of the user manual).

The device is for self-treatment at home and is not suitable for commercial purposes. Do not use for any purpose other than as described in this user manual.

4.6 Charging the battery

1. Charge the device before first use.
2. Place the wall adapter cable into the device, then connect the wall adapter to the mains supply. The battery indicator light will blink white.
3. Position the wall adapter so that the mains plug is disconnected easily.

NOTE : The battery icon does not change color.

NOTE : You cannot use the device when it is charging.

5. Treatments

5.1 Treatment areas

Use the device on these areas of your face.

5.2 Treatment plan

Treat each area separately for 15 minutes. You can treat as many areas as you like in one session.
Treat each area for at least 10 minutes at energy level 4.
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 effect.
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.

5.3 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.

5.4 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 10 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.

NOTE : Consult your physician if you experience any persistent symptoms including pain, skin redness, swelling or a burning sensation.

6. Get started!

1. Make sure that your skin is clean and dry, and that you have removed all jewelry.
2. Remove the device and the other components from the box.
3. Check that the battery is not low before you start a treatment and remember that you cannot use the device when it is charging.
4. 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.

NOTE : Check that the expiry date of the gel has not passed.
5. Apply a thin layer of Silk’n Slider Gel over the treatment surface (#1).

NOTE : 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 Slider Gel and apply more gel if needed.

6. 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.

7. 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 contact with the skin as you treat the area.
8. With the device constantly in motion, treat each area for 15 minutes.
9. Increase the energy level gradually. Using the highest energy level will get the best results, but it’s important that you set the energy level that is comfortable for the area you are treating.

NOTE : Y ou 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.

Stop immediately if you feel any discomfort.

10. 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.

11. 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 sooth and moisturize the skin.

7. Cleaning, maintenance & storage

Clean the device after each treatment.

WARNING: Never immerse your device or any of its parts in water!

Put the device in standby mode, then unplug it.
Use absorbent paper (such as toilet paper or wipes) to remove the gel residue off the treatment surface (#1). Make sure 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).

NOTE: 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.

8. Troubleshooting

Do not attempt to open or repair your device. You may exposure yourself to dangerous electrical components and may cause serious harm to yourself. It will also void the warranty.
