5. Precautions – How to use Glide™ Safely
Choose your energy levels CAREFULLY!
Energy level refers to the intensity of the light pulse that is projected on your skin during use, from the
lowest level to the highest level. Indicator lights on the control pad illustrate the energy level at which the
machine is set. As the energy level increases, so do the results of Glide as well as the risk of side effects
(see section 7-"Risks of Using Glide").
Always begin your first use of Glide™ at the lowest energy setting!
Only if you experience little or no discomfort during and after use of Glide™ at the lowest energy
setting, raise the energy level by one indicator light the next time you use Glide™, and so on for each
subsequent hair removal session.
For detailed instructions on energy level setting, see "Energy Level" box in section 9.2 - "Treating with
Glide™ for the first time".
Avoid adverse effects!
Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!
Try to avoid overlapping pulses!
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Avoid complications after use of Glide™!
Do not expose treated areas of skin to the sun!
Sun exposure includes constant unprotected exposure to direct sunlight for over 15 minutes, or constant
unprotected exposure to diffuse sunlight for over 1 hour.
To protect recently treated skin when exposed to sunlight, be sure to thoroughly apply sunscreen SPF 30
or higher, for 2 weeks after each hair removal session.
Always shave the area to be treated and make sure that the skin is clean and dry before using Glide™.
Cover birthmarks and tattoos before Glide™ application.
Cover dark brown or black spots, such as large freckles, birth marks, moles or warts before Glide™
application.
Never look directly at the light coming from the Glide™ treatment surface.
Do not use Glide™ on nipples and genitals (male or female).
Do not use Glide™ on any body site where you might later want hair.
Do not use Glide™ for any purpose other than hair removal.
Never point the Glide™ treatment surface in an attempt to emit a light pulse into open space. Always
make sure that the surface is pointed at, and in full contact with the skin during application.
