#### 4. Device Description
The Device is equipped with three replaceable treatment heads; two treatment heads are electrode heads for micro current output to stimulate facial skin (Bigger one, and smaller one), the other treatment head is LED lamp holder.
The device is intended for facial stimulation by electrode heads for cosmetic use. The device is also intended for the treatment of periorbital wrinkles with red Light Emitting Diode (LED) head. It is for over-the-counter use.
For two micro current treatment heads of instrument, they can be exchanged for different skin part to use. The bigger one is for face tissue on cheeks and the smaller one is for facial tissue below eye region. It should be used about 10 minutes/2 to 3 times per week. The red is for red-light caring (about 3 minutes/2 to 3 times per week.)The product is supplied with an internal lithium rechargeable battery; It can be charged by 5V voltage of battery charger connected by standard USB cable. During battery charging, the LED lights start flash circling until charging is completed.
{5}------------------------------------------------
There are two kinds of electrode heads, one bigger electrode head is for cheek stimulation; and smaller electrode head is for stimulation on under eyes area. There are no electronic component inside of either heads. It is only for conduct stimulation current.
