BENEFITS
We understand how hectic life can get and keeping up appearances can be very
time consuming. Derma Seta™ was developed with your busy schedule in mind. Our
design is very user-friendly and extremely easy to operate, leaving you more time in
the day to get to the most important things in life. Compared to shaving, waxing and
pedicures, Derma Seta™ takes less time to acquire the same results. By eliminating
any potential for pain, additional costs, and time to visit a professional, Derma Seta™
is the ideal product to get the results you want, when it’s convenient for you.
Derma Seta™ is designed to remove hair conveniently and exfoliate skin utilizing
specially designed Derma Crystal Hair Removal Pads. These pads are excellent for
gentle removal of hair on arms and legs and, unlike laser hair removal, is suitable for
all skin types.
This multipurpose beauty aid is compact, portable and easy to use. With a variety of
accessories, it is perfectly designed to remove calluses, smooth skin and apply lotions
as well as routine hair removal.
Never again will you have to worry about nicks and abrasions from shaving, and

soft hairless skin and heightened blood circulation for 1-2 days, Derma Seta™ is the
definitive product for easy, pain-free hair removal.

• Give yourself some time to determine the best motion for maximum results.
• Results may vary, but typically using Derma Seta™ 10 to 12 times will achieve
the optimum effect.
• The Derma Crystal Hair Removal Pad is intended for dry use only and will be
damaged if used with any liquids, lotions, shaving creams or gels.
• When the pad becomes noticeably smoother, change the pad to achieve the
best results.

6) The attachment head will rotate counterclockwise only. Using light pressure apply
the exfoliating disc to your skin.
7) Move the rotating disc in a gentle circular motion in a clockwise direction, gradually
covering the entire area. You will feel a warm sensation, which is common. With
practice, you will determine the exact amount of pressure to effectively remove hair.
Do not keep rotating disc in one place for too long.
8) The exfoliating action produces a fine white powder accumulating on your skin.
This is normal as the hair removal process reduces hair and dry skin to a powder
that can be removed with the soft brush attachment. (See attachment section for
further instructions).
9) Feel your skin as you move the pads. If you miss a spot, or encounter a stubborn
area, gently pass over the area again in a circular motion, until the hair is gone.
Caution: Using Derma Seta™ for too long on one area may cause a skin burn.
10) Once finished, push the power switch to the OFF position and place back into
the Charging Cradle.
Caution: Make sure the unit is turned OFF & stays OFF while charging in the
Charging Cradle.
