The Three Center LEDs Are Not Working When you turn your Genesis DH on, the first thing you are going to notice is that the three LEDs down the middle don t look like they are on.

3 Genesis DH General Guidelines for Use Before Each Treatment: Cleanse the skin with a non-medicated cleanser, and dry. This will remove anything that may block or interact with the light. Treatment Time: Unless otherwise directed, adhere to the treatment times recommended in each section. Longer treatment times are not necessary and may lessen the effectiveness of your treatments. Light Angle: Light has the greatest penetration at the most direct angle. Since most surfaces of the human body are curved, move the light to cover each major angle. For example, a wound may wrap around the calf. It may take two or more different angles to fully cover a single wound. Give the full treatment time to each major angle needed. After Each Treatment: Your regular skin care products may be applied according to your normal routine. Treatment Frequency & Maintenance: Unless otherwise stated, the minimum treatment frequency is once weekly. The maximum treatment frequency is once daily. It is recommended to treat once daily until the desired result is achieved, then reduce treatments to once or twice per week as needed to maintain your results. 2
