Preparing for Your First Session

Directions for Use

• Treat 2–3 times per week, leaving at least one full day between sessions.
• Only treat when any redness (erythema) from the previous session has subsided and the skin has fully recovered.

A skin reaction (erythema - redness) typically appears 6–8 hours after exposure:

• No redness: increase exposure time by 20 seconds at the next session.
• Mild redness: if it clears within 24 hours, extend by 20 seconds at the next session.
• Noticeable redness (desired state): if it is still pink after 24 hours, keep the same time and wait for it to fully fade.
• Marked redness: pause treatment until the skin returns to normal, then reduce the time by 20%.
• The typical exposure per spot is about 3–4 minutes, depending on skin type.
