Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!

The Skin Color Sensor

Light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can result in adverse effects such as burns, blisters, and skin color changes 
(hyper- or hypo-pigmentation).
To prevent such misuse, a unique 

SKIN COLOR SENSOR

 in BellaLite™ measures the treated skin complexion at the beginning 

of  each  session  and  occasionally  during  the  session.  If  the 

SKIN  COLOR  SENSOR

  detects  a  skin  tone  that  is  too  dark  for 

BellaLite™ application, the device will automatically stop emitting pulses.
If you see no light pulse and the 

SKIN TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT

 blink for 3 seconds, this is an indication that your skin 

tone, measured by the 

SKIN COLOR SENSOR

, is too dark for safe application. Try using the device on a different body part or 

contact the BellaLite™ support.

Covering skin areas

BellaLite™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and progressing 
sequentially towards the other end. This technique allows better control of skin coverage, and 
helps you avoid treating the same area more than once or overlapping skin areas.
When  applied  to  the  skin,  the  BellaLite™ 

APPLICATOR TIP

  is  designed  to  create  temporary 

pressure marks on the treated area. These visible marks can be used for proper positioning 
of the next pulse.

Whenever BellaLite™ is turned on its energy level will automatically be reset to the lowest energy level. Only one 

ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHT

 will be on.

To set the energy level, press the 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 using “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the 

energy level. The number of 

ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHTS

 will coincide with the change in energy level.

For your safety, when using BellaLite™ for the very first time, the system is automatically set to deliver the first 50 
pulses at the lowest energy level, and the next 200 pulses at up to level 3.
To cancel these safety settings press and hold the “+” and ”-“ 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 simultaneously until you 

hear 2 consecutive “beep” sounds.
To restore these safety settings press and hold the “+” and ”-“ 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 simultaneously until you 

hear 3 consecutive “beep” sounds.

Do not raise the energy level if you experience abnormal discomfort during or after treating with 
BellaLite™! (See “Possible Side Effects”)
Do not raise the energy level during hair removal session even if you experience no discomfort. 
Discomfort may also appear some time after the session.
