INTRODUCTION
NuFACE TRINITY® WRINKLE REDUCER ATTACHMENT
The NuFACE Trinity Wrinkle Reducer (Wrinkle Reducer)
uses a precise combination of red and infrared lights to
reduce the appearance of wrinkles. There are 36 LEDs in
the attachment, composed of 32 red LEDs and 4 infrared
LEDs that illuminate when the device is turned on and
placed on the skin. Please note, the infrared light is not
visible to the naked eye. This means that the infrared LEDs
will not appear to be on when in use. However, they are on
whenever the red LEDs are illuminated.

IDEAL USER
The Wrinkle Reducer is for anyone wanting to reduce the
appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

REDUCER ATTACHMENT
6. ATTACHMENT
RELEASE BUTTON
BEFORE USING YOUR
ATTACHMENT
1. The Wrinkle Reducer’s unique
technology flashes the LEDs to provide improved
results. Use in a well-lit room if you find the flashing
lights bothersome.
2. Firmly press the release button to remove or fasten
the attachment.
3. When fastening a new treatment
attachment, press the release button,
guide the attachment in place
(as pictured), and then release the
button to secure the attachment to
your NuFACE Trinity device.
4. For most devices, the +/- keys are not
active when the Wrinkle Reducer is
attached. If your device’s +/- keys are
active, increase the power so all five
output lights are illuminated.
5. Test your skin to make sure you are not sensitive to light.
To do so, place the Wrinkle Reducer on your forearm
for 3 minutes and then check the area. If it turns red
and lasts for more than 2 hours, your skin is sensitive
to light and you should not use the Wrinkle Reducer. 2

6. Before treatment, take a photo of your cleansed face
in a well-lit room to document your results. After
treatment, take a photo of your face/problem areas.
Every eight weeks, take another photo of your face
in the same room with the same lighting at the same
location. Compare results to previous weeks
of treatment.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS
INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Wrinkle Reducer is an over-the-counter hand-held
device intended for the treatment of full-face wrinkles.
CONTRAINDICATIONS FOR USE
• Do not use if you have a history of seizures, especially
if you have photosensitive epilepsy, as the pulsing light
could induce seizures.
• Do not use on the neck if diagnosed with or suspect a
thyroid problem.
• Do not use the Wrinkle Reducer if your skin is sensitive
to light. People can be sensitive to light and not be
aware of it. In addition, certain drugs or cosmetics can
cause skin sensitivity, as well as other factors. See the
“Before Using Your Attachment” section for directions to
test your skin.
• Do not use over any suspicious or cancerous
lesion — consult your doctor.
• Do not use over topical or systemic steroids.
• Do not use if you are pregnant.
• Do not use on infants and children under the age of 14,
and keep device and attachments out of the reach of
children.
TREATMENT STEPS
1. Follow all of the steps indicated in the “Before Using
Your Attachment” section.
2. Cleanse your face with an oil-free cleanser. Note: Do
not use the NuFACE Gel Primer with the Wrinkle
Reducer. The Gel Primer is for use with microcurrent
devices/attachments only.
3. Remove your device from the charging cradle and turn
it on by pressing the ON/OFF button. An ascending
audible beep is emitted notifying you that your device
is on, and the red LEDs will flash rapidly 3 times. Do
not touch the Wrinkle Reducer shield until the unit has
finished flashing.
4. Divide the face into 7 sections as pictured (Page 5).
5. Place the Wrinkle Reducer in direct contact with your
clean, dry skin, over the area to be treated. Your
Wrinkle Reducer has a skin sensor that will illuminate
the red LEDs when in complete contact with your
skin. Press firmly enough to keep the Wrinkle Reducer
in direct contact with your skin. The device should
be used on lines and wrinkles within the section, not
specifically where the number appears on the photo.
Treat each section for 3 minutes until beep sounds.
6. If the Wrinkle Reducer is not touching the skin, your
device will emit 3 beeps notifying you to hold directly
on your skin.
7. Your device will automatically shut off after 21 minutes
indicating you are now finished with the treatment.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
1. Why do I hold the Wrinkle Reducer directly on my skin?
To allow your skin to absorb as much light as possible.
2. Why does the Trinity Wrinkle Reducer flash?
It flashes when it’s in use to increase the efficacy of the
treatment. The flash treatment is unique to NuFACE.
If you’re sensitive to the lights, you can wear goggles.
You can purchase goggles from your local drugstore.
3. Why do some of the red LEDs look like they aren’t
on? Some of the LEDs are infrared, which are not
visible to the naked eye.
4. How long will it take to see results? It usually takes
6 to 8 weeks to see the start of the reduction of fine
lines and wrinkles. Some people see results in a shorter
period of time, while others take longer.

your desired results, use the device 2-3 times per week
for maintenance.
6. Can I use my favorite anti-aging creams or serums
with my Wrinkle Reducer? Yes.
7. How long do the red LEDs last? The red LEDs
are unique and are designed to last more than
25,000 hours.
CARING FOR
YOUR DEVICE
TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The Wrinkle Reducer will
normally get warm during
a treatment. A temperature
sensor will turn the device
off if the internal attachment
temperature exceeds 129.5°F.
Allow the device to cool for
30 minutes before reuse should
this occur.
CLEANING
Use a damp, soft, lint-free cloth and water or rubbing
alcohol to clean the Wrinkle Reducer. Do not immerse in
water at any time. 6
TROUBLESHOOTING
If your Wrinkle Reducer is not turning on, please make
sure all the below are true:
• The Wrinkle Reducer is completely attached to the
device and fits snugly. Make sure to firmly press the
release button when attaching and detaching the
Wrinkle Reducer.
• The NuFACE Trinity device battery is fully charged. If
not, please charge your device for a full 12 hours. The
NuFACE Trinity device battery needs to be fully charged
as the Wrinkle Reducer takes more power than the
Facial Trainer Attachment (microcurrent).
• The Wrinkle Reducer is pressed completely to the skin,
activating (or turning on) the LEDs. Remember, the
Wrinkle Reducer has a skin sensor making the red LEDs
turn on only when in complete contact with your skin.
• The Wrinkle Reducer has been allowed to self-calibrate.
The attachment will automatically calibrate within
the first few seconds of turning on the device. This is
indicated by three rapid flashes of the red LEDs. Make
sure you do not touch the Wrinkle Reducer while the
device is calibrating.
• The gold connector board (as
pictured) is clean. Avoid getting
any gel, skin care products or dirt
on the connector board. Should
the connector board get dirty, we
recommend wetting a cotton swab
(not a cotton ball) with isopropyl
alcohol to clean the face of the
connector board, wipe dry, and
then air dry for one hour before use.
If all the above are true and your Wrinkle Reducer is
still not working please call NuFACE customer service
at 888-360-9171. We’re here to help!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
RISKS
The risks and dangers of using the Wrinkle Reducer in
any way that does not follow this User Manual may be un-
known. Use the Wrinkle Reducer only as described within
this User Manual. The Wrinkle Reducer was not tested for
use over the eye socket or eyelid so the risks are unknown.
PRECAUTIONS
• If using the device causes any discomfort, discontinue
use immediately.
• Overuse of this device may result in dryness of
the skin.
• Contact a doctor immediately if you suspect that you have
had a negative reaction from using the Wrinkle Reducer.
• Do not store the attachment in the sun or on a hot
surface. High temperature may be damaging.
• Do not disassemble the attachment as this may cause
damage, malfunction, electrical shock, fire or injury.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
Note: Disassembly voids the warranty.
• Do not operate in an environment where other devices,
that intentionally radiate electromagnetic energy in an
unshielded manner, are being used. Portable or mobile
radio frequency communication equipment can affect
medical electrical equipment.
• Failure to use and maintain the NuFACE Trinity Wrinkle
Reducer in accordance with the instructions outlined in
this manual will void the warranty.
• Always protect your skin from the sun. The sun may
cause wrinkles and reduce the benefits of the Wrinkle
Reducer.
8
• Do not look directly into the Wrinkle Reducer’s LEDs or
shine in the eyes while in operation as this may cause
you to see spots for a few moments. The skin sensor on
the Wrinkle Reducer will help protect you from the lights
as the Wrinkle Reducer must be in contact with the skin
to activate the lights.
WARNINGS
• Never operate this device if it is not working properly,
if it has been dropped or damaged, or submerged
in water.
• Never drop or insert any object into any openings on
the device.
• Only use the power adapter provided with the NuFACE
Trinity System.
• Do not scratch or damage the treatment attachment.
• Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein, may result
in injury.
• Keep all electrical appliances (including NuFACE Trinity
device and treatment attachments) away from water
(including baths and showers).
• Do not use flammable aerosol products or oxygen near
the device.
