8.2 Facial treatment
WARNING
Do not use the beurer SalonPro System on your face at an energy level higher than 3.
Do not use the beurer SalonPro System on your face above the cheekbones or on the eyes, eye-
brows or eyelashes, as this could result in severe damage to the eyes.
Do not use the beurer SalonPro System on mucous membranes in the nose or throat area.
The skin on your face is very sensitive and requires special care. Observe all warning and safety notes
in these instructions for use to prevent adverse consequences. We recommend that you first perform a
treatment on your body and get to know the device before performing facial treatment.
All areas of the face below the cheekbones, such as the upper lip, cheeks, jaw, chin and neck can be
treated using the beurer SalonPro System.
Note
The precision attachment, which is included in delivery, can be used to
make application on the face easier. This makes the light area smaller and
allows for a more precise application.
The precision attachment can be easily attached to the applicator by posi-
tioning it and pushing it on to the light area.
Please position the precision attachment so that the corresponding cut-
out area in the attachment lines up over the skin contact/skin colour sen-
sor. If the skin contact/skin colour sensor is covered, it is not possible to
trigger a light pulse.
Use the precision attachment with max. energy level 3 and only use if your skin tone is lighter than
skin type 5.
1. You must carry out a skin sensitivity test 48 hours before treatment (see Chapter 7, step 2). The skin
sensitivity test should be performed on an area without hair, such as below the ear or on the side of
the neck, to determine the suitable energy level.
WARNING
Do not treat the tested area until at least one week after performing the skin sensitivity test.
2. Mark the treated area with a white eyeliner pencil. Use the marking as an orientation line for issuing
the pulses. This way you can prevent overlapping the treatment areas or treating other areas of the
face by mistake.
3. Use a mirror to position the applicator correctly on the treatment area.
4. Follow the instructions for use (see previous chapter 8.1 “Starting treatment”) and observe the follow-
ing specific instructions, in particular.
Note
Facial hair can be a result of hormones, which means that several sessions may be required to achieve
permanent hair reduction.
8.3 Treating the upper lip
Position the treatment window of the applicator as shown in the figure. Trigger a pulse in
every marked zone.
Avoid applying the treatment to the nostrils and lips, as these areas are more sensitive.
