out. This is why you will need to have several sessions before achieving the expected
results.
10. Can men use the Lumilisse Hair Remover?
The Lumilisse Hair Remover can be used by men. However, men’s hair, especially chest
hair, will require more sessions to achieve the desired results.
11. Why does hair grow back in the area that I treated last week?
It is quite common for hair to appear to continue to grow for one to two weeks after a
depilation session with the Lumilisse Hair Remover. This process is known as "ejection."
After two weeks, you will notice that this hair falls out or comes away from its follicle.
Note that we recommend you do not pull the hair from the follicle – let it fall out
naturally. Moreover, some hair will not be aff ected by the Lumilisse Hair Remover either
because of poor application or because the hair was in its dormant phase. This hair will
be treated in the following sessions, hence the need for several sessions to achieve the
expected results with the Lumilisse Hair Remover.
12. I’ve heard that some hair grows back lighter and fi ner after photo-epilation. Is
this true?
This phenomenon is well documented by beauticians and doctors who use pulsed light
devices for depilation treatments. It is possible that some hair grows back lighter and fi ner
after a Lumilisse Hair Remover session. Generally, this hair only represents a tiny part of
the original hair growth; treatments should therefore be continued to achieve the desired
result.
13. Is long-term use of the Lumilisse Hair Remover dangerous for my skin?
Over the last 15 years, the use of the pulsed light in aesthetic medicine has been well
documented in professional journals. These journals and institutions have not reported
any side eff ects or injuries connected with long-term use of pulsed light devices.
14. Can I use the Lumilisse Hair Remover to eliminate chin or facial hair?
Yes, but the Lumilisse Hair Remover is only recommended for areas below the cheekbones.
Do not use on eyelashes or eyebrows. Do not use on men’s beards.
15. How long should I wait before using the Lumilisse Hair Remover if I am not
protected from the sun’s rays?
You should avoid exposure to the sun before and after treatment with the Lumilisse
Hair Remover no matter which part of the body has been treated. You must use suitable
protection, e.g., a covering garment or a sunscreen (with a protection factor of 50+) which
you should then use regularly for three weeks before and after treatment. Ideally, you
should wait 4 weeks before using the Lumilisse Hair Remover if you have been exposed
to the sun without protection. If you have any doubt about your skin exposure, consult
your doctor.
16. What should I do before I use the Lumilisse Hair Remover?
Before each session with the Lumilisse Hair Remover, it is important that the area to be
treated has not been exposed to the sun for at least 4 weeks. A sunscreen with a high
protection factor (protection factor of 50+) should be used to protect the skin, as well
as clothes that cover the area to be treated. The area to be treated should be washed
with soap and water beforehand and then shaved clean of hair. (Shaving is fi ne, but do
not use other methods of depilation, such as an electrical epilator or wax.
NOTE:
Do not
shave the areas of your face that you want to treat.)
17. How do I take care of the treated area after using the Lumilisse Hair Remover?
The area treated with the Lumilisse Hair Remover may be cleaned and cared for with high-
quality skincare products. Specifi c precautions should be taken to avoid unprotected
exposure to the sun. Sunscreens with a higher protection factor (protection factor of
50+) and long-sleeved clothing are good protection against the sun.
18. Should I remove hair between and after treatments?
No, do not remove hair during or after treatments. The hair will fall out on its own
naturally and gradually. This stage may last up to two weeks.
