Benefits:
This device features a built-in skin color sensor that
continually evaluates your skin tone and allows treatment
only on suitable areas. This safety feature also disables
treatment if the skin in the treatment area is too dark or
tanned, even if your general skin type is lighter. As an extra
precaution, this device only emits a light pulse when it is in
contact with your skin.
Notes:
Response to the device hair reduction differs between
individuals depending on biological factors and how
treatment instructions are followed. Hair removal by lasers
or intense pulse light sources 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.
