check the skin tone chart
Match the skin in the area you wish to treat to the
range of skin tones shown on this chart. If your
skin tone matches any of the skin tones labeled
“Not Safe” for treatment, then DO NOT USE
the TRIA Laser.
Charge your TRIA Laser
Charge the TRIA Laser for 2 hours before you use it for the first
time. Plug the battery charger into the TRIA Laser charger socket,
then into a power outlet. The battery indicator will show it is “filling
up.” When the TRIA Laser is fully charged the battery light will stay on.
Activate your TRIA Laser
A one-time online or telephone activation is required before you
can use the TRIA Laser. Go to TRIABeauty.com/Activate or call
TRIA Beauty Customer Care at 1-877-321-TRIA (8742). Activation
takes less than 5 minutes to complete. The TRIA Laser will not
work until it’s been activated.
Perform a patch test
Before your first full treatment on a new area of your body, we
recommend you test the TRIA Laser on a patch of skin there and
try different energy levels.
1.
Wash, shave and dry the treatment area. Next, unlock the
TRIA Laser with the Skin Sensor (see page 6).
2.
Place the Treatment Window flat against your skin, and test
one laser pulse.
3.
If the Level 1 setting was comfortable for you, then move to
another test area and increase to Level 2, testing a patch at
that level with one laser pulse. Continue increasing levels and
changing test locations until you reach the highest level that
you can tolerate.
4.
Wait 24 hours and then examine the test area. If your skin
looks normal, start your first treatment at the highest level that
is comfortable to you. Contact Customer Care or your doctor
if your skin does not look normal after the patch test.
