What is sensiLift
sensiLift™ is a home use device intended for
wrinkles reduction and elasticity renewal
based on selective electrothermolysis (RF)
combined with mechanical massage for
immediate relaxation of the facial skin.
How Does it Work?
Introducing the new Dynamic RF™ technology
Dynamic RF™ technology combination
of RF with facial massage maximizes the
effectiveness of the RF treatment, allowing
multiple RF waves to reach wider range of
skin layers and assist in getting best possible
visible and ongoing, lasting results.
A major cause of skin wrinkles is the
reduction in the quantity and quality of
collagen fibers in the dermis and hypodermis.
Radio Frequency (RF) is a form of
electromagnetic energy that has being used
in doctors clinics for a long time and was
found to produce a highly efficient thermal
effect on biological tissue.
Heat is generated as a result of tissue
resistance to the movement of electrons
within the RF field. Then the sub-cutaneous
heat generates new collagen and enhances
existing collagen, leading to wrinkle
reduction and improved skin elasticity.
sensiLift™ treatment creates enough thermal
effect to induce some collagen remodeling
with no ablative thermal damage of the
epidermis or dermis.
sensiLift™ Description
sensiLift™ kit includes the following main
components:
1. External power supply
2. sensiLift™ hand-held device:
Massage fingers and electrodes - the
two massage fingers (treatment fingers)
combined with RF electrodes in order to
simultaneously apply the RF and massage
treatment. safety temperature sensors are
also embedded in the treatment fingers.
3. sensiLift™ conductivity enhancer:
Designed especially to improve contact
between the device and the skin and
improve skin conductivity.

How to Use sensiLift™
Note:
A preliminary test should be conducted
before proceeding to a full treatment. See
preliminary test section below.
1. Apply a thin, even layer of sensiLift™
conductivity enhancer included in your kit,
on the area of your skin intended
for treatment.
2. Set the Radio Frequency (RF) energy
level and the massage speed to the
level you selected in your preliminary
test treatment. Press the RF energy level
selection button (see image - item 7)
repeatedly until you reach the desired
level: 1, 2, or 3. Press the button (see
image - item 3) repeatedly until you reach
the desired level: 1 or 2.
3. The activation of either RF or massage
functions can be done independently or
together. Both functions will be activated
at level 1. Select different levels based on
the “preliminary test”.
4. sensiLift™ is equipped with 2 safety
sensors which will keep the temperature
in the effective and safe range during the
whole treatment.
5. Place the treatment fingers (see image -
item 2) on the intended area, ensuring full
contact with your skin during the entire
treatment. sensiLift™ will indicate the
proper skin contact by the green status
light. If sensiLift™ is not properly placed,
the RF energy will not be delivered.
6. If you do not feel sensations of warmth
after approximately 10 seconds, try
moving sensiLift™ on a smaller treatment
area, and/or increasing the RF energy.
7. Move the device on the treated area with
slow circular or back and forth motion
while constantly and firmly contacting
the skin.
8. See treatment areas, treatment time and
treatments schedule in the “treatment
protocol” section below.
9. Turn off the device and then unplug at the
end of each treatment session.
10. After completing the treatment, wipe
off the sensiLift™ conductivity enhancer
from the treated area.
11. Cleaning instructions for before and
after are detailed (as depicted in the
Cleaning section).

Preliminary Test
Before your first treatment, and in order
to find the best sensiLift™ settings for
you, a preliminary test on a small patch
of skin in the intended treatment area is
recommended.
Do a preliminary test on each area you intend
to treat 48 hours prior to the full treatment.
Before using sensiLift™, apply a thin, even
layer of sensiLift™ conductivity enhancer on
treated area.
Start your test with RF energy level 1 and
massage level 1.
Increase the levels according to your comfort.
The treatment will create a warm sensation
on your skin.
Stop the test if you do not feel comfortable
or if you see adverse effects such as severe
redness or blistering.
If the skin in the test area seems normal
(no adverse effects) you can proceed with
a full treatment in the highest comfortable
energy level and massage level you tested.
Note:
The RF energy level indicates the rate
at which the temperature rises when in
heating mode. A high RF energy level will
enable you faster and even heating. You
can achieve maximum results with all RF
energy levels (for lower levels, it will just
take longer time to reach the effective
temperature), therefore, select your
optimal RF energy level according to your
level of comfort.
