Patch Testing your skin before using
the Boots Smooth Skin system
Before starting, test your skin reaction to the
Boots Smooth Skin system and Activator Gel
on or as near as possible to the area you are
planning to treat following the instructions in
this section.
1. Prepare a small area of skin as described on
page 10.
2. Check your skin tone using the Skin Tone
chart on page 2.
3. Set the Boots Smooth Skin system to the
appropriate skin tone—see section 4.
4. Apply a thin layer of the Activator Gel on the
area you are patch testing.
5. Use the Boots Smooth Skin system and apply
a single treatment to the patch test area—
see section 4.
6. Turn the Boots Smooth Skin system off and
clean the gel from the patch test area and
the handset.
7. Follow the aftercare instructions on page 17.

Following the test wait at least 48 hours,
checking the area regularly to see if you
develop any reaction—see "What to expect
when using the Boots Smooth Skin system"
on page 5, "Possible adverse reactions" on page
16 and "Aftercare" on page 17.
Only conduct your first full treatment after
checking you don't have a reaction to the
Activator Gel or to the light pulse produced
by the Boots Smooth Skin system.
The area where you have Patch Tested should
not be treated for at least 1 week after the
patch test.
Preparation for treatment
Ensure the area to be treated is clean and free
from deodorants, perfume, make up or other
creams and lotions.
Choose a location in your home away from
other people because the small amount of
light which escapes from the unit, when in use,
is still very bright and can be a distraction.
For this reason we also recommend that you
don't use the Boots Smooth Skin system in the
same room as very young children or babies.
Select the area of your body that you want to
treat with the Boots Smooth Skin system.
Using a razor, shaver or clipper, shave or trim
the area to be treated. For best results hair
should be no longer than 1 mm.
do noT epilate, wax or treat the area with hair
removing creams because this may remove
too much hair and stop the Boots Smooth Skin
system from working effectively.
do noT point the handset at anyone or attempt
to trigger the light pulse when the handset is
not in full contact with the skin.
do noT look directly into the glass filter on
the handset.
do noT block the cooling vents on the handset.
do noT use on skin not covered with the
Activator Gel.

4. Using the Boots Smooth Skin system
Before using the Boots Smooth Skin system you
should have completed a Patch Test at least 48
hours previously to determine any sensitivity to
the Activator Gel or the light pulse (page 10).
To start using the Boots Smooth Skin system
prepare an area of skin for the treatment as
described on page 10.
Using the Skin Tone chart on page 2, select the
skin tone that best matches your skin colour
and set the Boots Smooth Skin system to your
selected skin tone—Fair, Medium or Dark. Dark
skin absorbs more light than Fair, so the Dark
setting is the gentlest setting. If you're not sure
which setting matches your skin tone always
use a darker, gentler setting.
Treat one area of the body at a time
e.g. underarms, upper or lower legs and stop
using if it becomes uncomfortable.
Switch the power supply on. The 'STANDBY'
light on the base unit will light together with
the default skin type indicator "DARK".
