Skin test

The skin test serves to check tolerance and for a better estimation as to

how your skin will react to the treatment. Perform this at least 48 hours

before the rst application on the area of skin to be treated. Proceed as

follows:

1. Plug the end of the device plug of the power supply cable

into the

device and the power supply plug

into a socket. The readiness indi-

cator

illuminates red.

2. Press the ON/OFF button

. The intensity display

begins to light

up at Level 1, the readiness indicator

lights up green after a short

time and the device fan switches itself on. The device is now ready for

positioning on the skin.

3. Place the light area

onto the skin and press the trigger button

trigger a light pulse at intensity level 1. The skin contact area

must

lie fully on the skin (if case of adequate skin contact the readiness in-

dicator

starts to ash green), so that a light pulse can be emitted by

the device. When the pulse is emitted, you will see a bright ash and

may hear a clicking sound.

4. Now place the device on another area of the skin while it charges for

the next light pulse.

5. Then emit a new light pulse on the other skin area.

6. Repeat this procedure for further areas of skin, for which a treatment

is planned.

7. End the skin tolerance test (switch off the device by pressing and hold-

ing the ON/OFF button

) and wait at least 48 hours. Check the

skin areas that have been treated. If they appear normal (no reactions

or only slight redness), the areas of skin tested can be treated. How-

ever if the areas of skin display strong, painful or other unusual reac-

tions, you may not carry out any treatment on the corresponding skin

areas. In this case contact your doctor.
