CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR
NEW TRIA LASER PRECISION
The Tria Hair Removal Laser Precision gives you permanent results
at home, unlike temporary solutions such as shaving and waxing.
The Tria Laser Precision works in the same way as professional laser
hair removal. It treats the hair follicle, not just the hair, giving you
permanent hair reduction after a series of treatments.
LET’S GET STARTED!
INTRODUCTION
HOW DOES LASER HAIR REMOVAL WORK?
The Tria Laser Precision deactivates the
follicles in your skin that produce hair. It emits
a pulse of laser light, which heats up the
dark pigment inside the hair and deactivates
the hair follicle. That’s why it can deliver
permanent results and works only on naturally
brown or black hair.
To be most effective, the Tria Laser Precision
needs to treat each hair follicle during its
active growth period. Hair grows in cycles,
so multiple treatments are necessary. For
best results, treat every two weeks for up
to 3 months or until you are satisfied with
the amount of hair reduction.

WHAT THE TRIA LASER
PRECISION IS USED FOR
(INDICATIONS)
The Tria Hair Removal Laser Precision is
used to remove unwanted hair. It is an over-
the-counter system intended for adjunctive
use with shaving for hair removal sustained
with periodic treatments. It is also intended
for permanent reduction in hair regrowth
defined as long-term, stable reduction
in the number of hairs regrowing when
measured out to 6, 9 and 12 months after
the completion of the treatment regimen.
It is intended for use only on light to medium
skin tones (see the Skin Tone Chart on the
inside front cover) and naturally brown or
black hair. It will not work on white, grey,
blonde, or red hair.
WHO SHOULD NOT USE
THE TRIA LASER PRECISION
(CONTRAINDICATIONS)
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision if
your skin tone matches one listed as “Not
Safe” on the Skin Tone Chart on the inside
front cover of this booklet. If you use the
Tria Laser Precision on skin “Not Safe”
for treatment, the skin may absorb too
much laser light and be injured (burned,
discoloured, or scarred).
PLEASE NOTE: The skin sensor is a safety
feature that unlocks the Tria Laser Precision.
If it is not safe for you to use the Tria Laser
Precision, you won’t be able to unlock it with
the skin sensor.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision if you
are under the age of 18 or use it on anyone
else under the age of 18. The use of the Tria
Laser Precision on or by children has not been
studied and could result in serious injury.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision if you
have a lighter hair colour, such as blonde,
white, red or grey. In order for the laser to
work, you must have naturally dark hair
where you are treating. Lighter hair pigments
will not absorb enough of the laser's energy
to disable the hair follicle.

WARNINGS
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision on
or around the eyes, eyebrows, or eyelashes.
Doing so can cause permanent eye injury.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision
if the Skin Tone Chart shows that your skin
tone is not suitable. If you have African,
Indian, Native American or Pacific Island
heritage, you may have a skin tone that is
not suitable—be sure to check the Skin Tone
Chart. Darker skin tones can absorb too
much laser light, which can injure the skin.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision
anywhere on the ears, nipples, genitals or
around the anus. These areas may have more
sensitive skin, a darker skin tone, and/or a
greater hair density, and using the Tria Laser
Precision there may cause serious skin injury.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision on
parts of your skin that are darker than your
usual skin tone: tattoos, dark brown or black
spots (such as large freckles, birthmarks or
moles), or skin that is red or swollen from a
previous treatment. Dark skin may absorb too
much laser light, which can injure the skin.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision on
a man’s face, jaw or neck. The hair in a man’s
beard area is too dense, and using the Tria
Laser Precision in these areas may result in
skin injury.
Hair removal by laser can cause
increased hair growth in some individuals.
Based upon currently available data, the
highest risk groups for this response are
females of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern
and South Asian heritage treated on the face
and neck.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision on
damaged skin, including open wounds, cold
sores, sunburns or areas where you have
had a skin peel or other skin resurfacing
procedure within the last 6–8 weeks (check
with your doctor). These conditions can
make the skin more susceptible to injury.
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision
if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. The
Tria Laser Precision has not been tested
on pregnant women. Hormonal changes
could increase skin sensitivity and the risk
of skin injury.

7
DO NOT USE the Tria Laser Precision
if it appears damaged, and DO NOT attempt
to open, modify or repair the Tria Laser
Precision. These actions increase the risk of
skin or eye injury. Please contact Customer
Service for assistance.
Always follow basic safety precautions
for electrical devices: DO NOT get the Tria
Laser Precision or the charger damp or wet.
DO NOT use the Tria Laser Precision while
bathing or put it next to a tub or sink. DO
NOT operate a charger with a damaged
plug or cord. ALWAYS keep the cord away
from heated surfaces. Failure to follow these
precautions can cause electrocution or
electric shock.

BENEFITS AND RISKS
A medically supervised clinical study has
shown that the Tria Laser Precision is safe
and works when used as directed.
Seventy-nine (79) users performed a 6-week
course of treatment (3 treatments) and all
side effects were observed. The number
of hairs at each treatment site was counted
before each treatment and at 1, 2, 3, 6,
and 12 months after the last treatment.
No additional treatments were performed
after the third treatment.
BENEFITS
When used as directed, the Tria Laser Precision
gives you permanent results. The results vary
from person to person and depend on which
body area is treated and how closely treatment
instructions are followed. The clinical study
demonstrated the following benefits:
• 61% average reduction in hair count
3 weeks after the first treatment
• 70% average reduction in hair count
3 weeks after the second treatment
• 60% average reduction in hair count
1 month after the third treatment
• 6% average reduction in hair count
3 months after the third treatment
• 33% average reduction in hair count
12 months following the third treatment
In the study, 69 of 79 users (87%) reported
finer hair at 1 month after the last treatment
than before any treatment. And 55 of 79 users
(70%) reported lighter hair at 1 month after
the last treatment than before any treatment.
These results were obtained with only
3 treatments. For best results, treat every
2 weeks for 3 months or until you are
satisfied with the amount of hair reduction.
RISKS
It is important to use the Tria Laser
Precision properly. Make sure that you
understand and follow all warnings (see
page 6). The skin sensor will prevent use
of the device on contraindicated skin types
(see page 5).
If you use the Tria Laser Precision as directed,
the risks are low:
• In the clinical study, almost all users reported
mild to moderate pain or discomfort during

9
their first treatment, with a reduction in
sensitivity reported in their later treatments.
This is normal. You may feel warmth, burning,
tingling or itching; some users described
feeling the same level of discomfort as when
a rubber band snaps against the skin.
If the pain is too intense or persists after a
treatment, stop using the Tria Laser Precision
and check with your doctor before using
it again.
• Your skin may become red right after
treatment or within 24 hours. This redness
generally clears up within a few hours. See
your doctor if the redness does not go away
within 2-3 days.
• In rare cases, some users may see an increase
in the number of hairs in the treated area after
the initial treatment. If this increase persists
over several treatments, stop using the Tria
Laser Precision and see your doctor.
The following symptoms affected no users in
the clinical study (0 out of 88) but have been
reported with other hair removal lasers:
• Skin swelling, especially around the hair
follicle. If the swelling doesn’t go away within
2-3 days, stop using the Tria Laser Precision
and see your doctor.
• Temporary or permanent skin discolouration.
If your skin colour changes, stop using the
Tria Laser Precision and see your doctor.
• Blisters. This is very unlikely for people
with a light or medium skin tone. If you do
develop a blister, stop using the Tria Laser
Precision and don’t let the blister become
infected. Consult your doctor if needed.
TRIA LASER PRECISION
TREATMENT OVERVIEW
BEFORE YOUR FIRST TREATMENT
• Six weeks before your treatment, stop
waxing or plucking hair and do not get a
skin peel.
• At least 1 day before treatment, perform a
patch test on your skin (see page 11).
BEFORE EVERY TREATMENT
• Charge your Tria Laser Precision (see page 10)
• Unplug it from the battery charger
• Cleanse, shave, and dry your skin
(see page 12)
• Turn on the Tria Laser Precision (see page 12)
• Unlock it with the skin sensor located in the
tip (see page 12)
• Set the treatment level (see page 13)

11
Tria Beauty

BETWEEN TREATMENTS
• Shave, but don’t wax or pluck hair.
TREAT UNTIL YOU’RE DONE
• Be consistent and follow treatment
instructions.
• For best results, treat every 2 weeks for up to
3 months or until you see the desired results.
WHAT TO EXPECT
WHILE USING THE TRIA LASER PRECISION
• The sensation varies, depending on the
person, treatment area and treatment level.
Some users may feel the sensation of a
rubber band snapping on the skin. Others
will feel a warm, prickling sensation.
• As the amount of hair in the treated areas
decreases, the sensation will also decrease. For
this reason, you may be able to use a higher
treatment level after your initial treatments.
• Some users experience mild redness that
goes away within 24 hours.
DURING YOUR FIRST 3 MONTHS
OF TREATMENT
• After your first treatment, there will be
no visible change to the hair. Laser hair
removal does not cause hair to immediately
fall out.
• With additional treatments, there will be a
gradual reduction in the number of hairs with
each treatment.
• The hair that does regrow will also begin to
lighten and become finer.
AFTER 3 MONTHS OF TREATMENT
• Hair follicles that have been deactivated by
the Tria Laser Precision will not regrow hair.
• Do occasional touch-ups or additional
treatments if necessary.
BEFORE YOUR FIRST
TREATMENT
CHARGE THE TRIA LASER PRECISION
Charge the Tria Laser Precision for at least
2 hours before you use it or anytime the
battery is low (device automatically turns
off). If you are covering multiple areas or
have the Tria Laser Precision set to a high
treatment level, you may need to charge
the Tria Laser Precision in the middle of a
treatment. This is normal.

11
TO CHARGE:
1.Plug the battery charger into the Tria Laser
Precision charger socket and into a power
outlet.
2.The indicator lights will flash one after another
while the Tria Laser Precision is charging.
3.Once fully charged, indicator lights will stop
flashing and stay green and you may unplug
the charger. The Tria Laser Precision can
remain plugged in for extended periods of
time without damage.
NOTE: To prevent damage to your Tria Laser
Precision, use only the included Tria battery
charger. If you lose the charger, please
contact Customer Service.
NOTE: You may charge the laser in Quiet
mode (charges without the sound of cooling
fan), but it will take longer. To change charging
modes, press the power button while charging.
TEST THE LASER ON A PATCH OF SKIN
Before your first full treatment on a new
area of your body, we recommend you test
the Tria Laser Precision on a patch of skin
there and try different treatment levels,
starting at Low.
1.Prepare your skin and unlock the Tria Laser
Precision (see pages 12-13). The Tria Laser
Precision will be set to Low.
2.Place the treatment window flat against
your skin, and test one laser pulse.
3.If Low was tolerable for you, then move to
another test area and increase to Medium,
testing a patch at that level with one laser pulse.
To adjust the Tria Laser Precision setting up or
down, press the power button (see page 13).
4.If Medium was tolerable for you, change test
locations and increase to High, testing a patch
at that level with one laser pulse.

13
Tria Beauty

GB
5.Wait 24 hours and then examine the test
areas. If the skin appears normal, start your
first treatment at the highest level you are
comfortable using.
Retest your skin if your skin tone changes
dramatically (due to tanning).
If you notice blistering, burns, changes
in your skin tone or any other side effects, or
if you are not sure about the outcome of the
test, DO NOT USE your Tria Laser Precision.
Contact Customer Service or your doctor.
BEFORE EVERY TREATMENT
PREPARE YOUR SKIN
1.Cleanse the treatment area, removing all
cosmetics, lotions, and creams that may
block the laser light.
2.Shave the treatment area. This removes the
surface hair, which improves comfort and
allows the laser light to better reach the hair
in the follicle.
3.Dry the treatment area.
UNLOCK THE LASER
The Tria Laser Precision will lock when it’s not
in use. A locked device is indicated by the lit
top and bottom indicator lights. To unlock the
Tria Laser Precision, use the skin sensor, which
helps confirm that the Tria Laser is safe for
your skin tone.
1.Unplug the Tria Laser Precision from the
battery charger and press the power button
to turn it on.
2.To unlock, hold the device tip with the
built-in skin sensor against the skin in the
area you wish to treat. The skin sensor will
automatically sense and check your skin. If
the Tria Laser Precision is safe for your skin
tone, the laser will emit a series of beeps
and unlock.

13
Treatment Levels
Low HighMedium
3.If the top and bottom lights remain lit and
you do not hear a series of beeps, then
it may not be safe for you to use the Tria
Laser Precision. Or, you may be using the
skin sensor incorrectly and need to try
again. To try again, lift the device tip from
your skin and follow Steps 1 and 2 above.
If you still cannot unlock the Tria Laser
Precision, please contact Customer Service
for assistance.
SET THE TREATMENT LEVEL
The Tria Laser Precision offers three different
treatment levels: low, medium and high. In a
clinical study, higher levels were found to be
2-3 times more effective. So for best results,
we recommend you use the highest level
that you can tolerate.
When the Tria Laser Precision is on and
unlocked, press the power button to select
your desired treatment level. Each time
you press the power button, the level will
increase. Once the Tria Laser Precision is
at the maximum level, pressing the power
button again will return it to the lowest level.

15
Tria Beauty

HOW TO TREAT
1.TURN ON THE LASER, UNLOCK IT AND SET
THE TREATMENT LEVEL (SEE PAGES 12-13)
2.TOUCH THE TREATMENT WINDOW TO
THE SKIN. WHEN YOU HEAR A SINGLE
BEEP IMMEDIATELY LIFT THE DEVICE
AND MOVE TO STEP 3
• If you do not hear a beep within a few
seconds, make sure that the treatment
window is flat against your skin. The laser
will only pulse when the entire window is
touching your skin.
• If you hear a buzzing tone instead of a beep,
you lifted the device from the skin before
the pulse was over. It is normal for time
between beeps to lengthen as you progress
through each treatment. This should not
affect your results.
NOTE: It is normal for the cooling fan to turn
on and emit warm air through the bottom
vent as soon as you unlock your device.
You can continue treatment while this is
happening and do not need to wait for the
fan to turn off before treating the next area.
3.PLACE THE LASER BACK ON THE
SKIN SO THAT IT OVERLAPS THE
PREVIOUS AREA
• Each time you reposition the treatment
window, move it about half the distance of
the window (about 1/4 inch or 5 mm) in a
stamping motion.
• This creates an overlapping pattern in the
treatment area, which ensures you cover all
the hair follicles. This works out to about 25
laser pulses per square inch or 40 pulses per
10 square cm.

15
DO NOT treat repeatedly in the same
spot. Always move the treatment window
to a new area after each laser pulse. Failure
to do so may result in discomfort or skin
heating, which could cause skin injury.
4.REPEAT STEPS 2 AND 3 UNTIL YOU HAVE
COMPLETELY COVERED THE AREA YOU
WANT TO TREAT
Always follow the treatment instructions and
warnings provided in this booklet.
NOTE:You may need to recharge the Tria
Laser Precision when treating multiple areas.
5.TURN OFF THE LASER BY HOLDING
DOWN THE POWER BUTTON
Repeat treatments every 2 weeks for up to 3
months or until you reach the desired results.
