Troubleshooting

Pads not adhering well

Ensure skin is clean and dry. Gently re-apply the protective backing to the pad after use and store in the sealed packet. If pads are consistently losing adhesion before 30 uses, they may need replacing.

Reduced stimulation intensity

The gel layer may be drying out or losing conductivity. Try gently rehydrating the gel with a single drop of purified water, but avoid excessive moisture. If the problem persists, it's time to replace the pads.

Skin irritation after use

Though hypoallergenic, some individuals may have sensitivities. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Ensure the skin is clean before application and that the pad is not left on for excessively long periods. Check for any damage to the skin before re-application.
