headaches and migraines.

pacemaker, incontinence device, insulin pump, etc. Use of the
PRECISE TOUCH has not been tested in individuals with active

18. The use of the
PRECISE TOUCH
on or by children has not
been studied and could result in serious damage.

children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities,

given supervision or instruction.
WARNINGS
DO NOT use if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant
(conceiving) or breast-feeding. The
PRECISE TOUCH has not
been tested on pregnant or breast-feeding women. Hormo-
nal changes could increase skin sensitivity and the risk of skin
damage.
DO NOT treat with the
PRECISE TOUCH
immediately after or
before an active tanning session - in natural light, on a tanning
bed or when using sunless tanning products. If you are not cer-
tain whether you are tanning or sunburned it is recommended to
do a skin sensitivity test (page 8) and wait 24 hours.
DO NOT use the
PRECISE TOUCH on areas that have been
sunburned as this can make the skin more susceptible to
damage.
DO NOT use directly on parts of your skin where you have
tattoos, dark brown or black spots (such as large freckles,
birthmarks or moles). These areas may absorb too much light
energy which can damage the skin.
DO NOT use on the ears, neck, nipples, genitalia or around the
anus. These areas may have more sensitive skin and using the
PRECISE TOUCH
there may cause serious damage.
DO NOT use on or around the eyes, eyebrows or eyelashes.
Doing so can cause permanent eye damage.
DO NOT use on a man's face, jaw or neck. Using the PRECISE
TOUCH in these areas may result in skin damage.
DO NOT use the PRECISE TOUCH on any area where you may
want the hair to grow back. The hair removal results may be
permanent.
DO NOT use the PRECISE TOUCH if you are sensitive to light
(photosensitive).
• Some diseases can be related to photosensitivity including
porphyria, polymorphic light eruption, solar urticaria and
lupus.

fluorouracil, vinblastine, griseofulvin, Alpha-Hydroxy Acids
(AHAs), Beta-Hydroxy Acids (BHAs), Retin-A, Accutane®
and/or topical retinoids.
• Undergoing radiation or chemo-therapy treatments.
These conditions can make the skin more sensitive to light and
more susceptible to damage. Consult your doctor.
DO NOT use if you have an active or known skin condition in
the treatment area including acne, sores, psoriasis, eczema,
sunburns, melasma, herpes simplex, open wounds or a rash.
These conditions can make the skin more sensitive to light and
more susceptible to damage.
DO NOT use if you have a history of skin cancer or areas of
potential skin malignancies. Use of the
PRECISE TOUCH has
not been tested in areas with skin cancer, and therefore, the
effects are unknown.
DO NOT hold the treatment window still over one spot on the
skin and emit multiple light flashes on the skin. Doing so may
generate too much heat, which can damage the skin.

keep the device cool during operation. Covering the cooling
vents could result in the device overheating.
DO NOT get the PRECISE TOUCH damp or wet.
DO NOT use the PRECISE TOUCH while bathing or put it next

spark could cause an explosion, such as near a gas source.
