First Time Use - Skin Test and
Choosing Your Light Intensity
Level
The light intensity level setting determines the intensity
of the IPL flash delivered to your skin. There are 3 levels
– level 1 being the most suitable for fair skin, and level
3 for darker skin.
When you use your IPL PRO™ for the first time, or after
sun exposure, perform a skin test on each area that you
are going to treat to check your skin’s reaction and to
determine the correct light intensity level for each area.
1. Select light intensity level 1 and place the device
at a 90° angle on the skin you wish to treat so that
the treatment window and skin sensors are in full
contact with your skin.
2. In ‘MAnuAL’ mode, press the flash button to
release a single flash of IPL.
3. Slide the device over the skin to the next area to
be treated.
4. Increase the light intensity setting to level 2, and
press the flash button again.
5. Repeat this for light intensity level 3 on a different
area of skin.
6. Wait 30 minutes and check your reaction before
proceeding with your treatment. Choose the
highest setting that did not result in any skin
reaction.
IPL hair removal may feel like a warm tingling sensation,
but should never hurt. Do not increase the light
intensity level if you experience any discomfort during
or after use.
