Treating the neck and chin
Hair growth under the chin can be denser
and more coarse in nature and this can
sometimes lead to slight reddening in the
skin following a treatment. This redness
is temporary and should completely
disappear after 24 hours.
1. Apply a thick layer of Activating
Gel to the area to be treated (see
illustration below)
2. Repeat steps 2-8 as presented for
treating face, cheek and jaw.
NOTE:
• If redness or a burning sensation
occurs and lasts for several minutes,
apply a cool cloth/pad to soothe the
area.
• If any pigmentary changes in the
skin, e.g., lightening or darkening,
are observed, stop using the device.
Seek medical advice to determine
the cause which may be due to an
underlying medical condition.
After Treatment
• Avoid using bleaching creams, or
peeling products in the treated area
for 24 hours after treatment as they
may cause irritation.
• Avoid direct sunlight exposure for
24 hours after treatment. To protect
the skin, use a facial moisturizer with
SPF 15 or greater broad spectrum
sunscreen.

Patch Test

Before your first treatment, we recommend
you test your skin for reaction to Venus
Naked Skin device and Activating Gel.
®
NOTE: Test the area you are
planning to treat. The patch test
area should be about 2.5 x 5 cm
in size (equivalent to size of two
flashes, side by side).
1. First check your skin tone, (refer to
page 11).
2. Prepare the area to be treated by
cleansing and removing visible hair.
Pat dry with a towel.
3. Apply a thick layer of Activating Gel
to the area. DO NOT RUB IN. The gel
should remain in a thick layer on the
skin to ensure proper contact with the
applicator.
4. Place the handset firmly on the skin
so that both contact bars on the outer
corners of the treatment window are
placed in the Activating Gel that is
on the skin surface. The Activation
button will illuminate WHITE to signal
you have the proper contact. If the
white light does not appear, be sure
to adjust the handset so that both
bars remain in contact with the skin.
5. Press the Activation button once.
Look away from the handset to avoid
the bright light. You will hear a click
and may feel a warm sensation.
IMPORTANT: Adjustment of
Treatment Level
The treatment sensation may vary
depending on the person and
treatment area. For best results,
conduct the treatment at the highest
level you are comfortable using.
Level I – Highest power setting
Level IIII – Lowest power setting
To adjust the treatment level, refer
to step 7 on page 12.
6. Remove the handset from your skin.
7. Place the handset on the area
adjacent to the area you already
treated (see NOTE to the left).
Repeat steps 4 – 6.
8. Wait 48 hours and then examine the
test area. If the skin appears normal,
begin your first treatment at the
highest level you are comfortable
using. If a skin reaction develops,
discontinue use of Venus Naked Skin
®
and consult your physician.
DO NOT treat the patch tested area
for at least one week after the test.
