General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root can lead to ingrowing hair and
irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort and reddening of the skin) depending
on the condition of the skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should quickly disappear, but may be
stronger when you are removing hair at the root for the first few times or
if you have sensitive skin.
If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows irritation, we recommend that you
contact your physician. In general, the skin reaction and the sensation
of pain tend to diminish considerably with the repeated use of Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria
penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance over the skin).
