CAUTION!
Do not use the epilating head on irritated skin or skin with varicose veins, rashes, spots, moles
(with hairs) or wounds without consulting your doctor first. People with a reduced immune
response or people who suffer from diabetes mellitus, haemophilia or immunodeficiency
should also consult their doctor first.
Using an epilator may cause reddening or irritation of the skin. This is a normal reaction that
quickly disappears. However, you should consult your doctor if the irritation has not
disappeared within three days.
The discomfort experienced at first is considerably reduced with repeated use of epilator and
the skin adjusts to the process.
In some cases inflammation of the skin could occur when bacteria penetrate the skin (e.g.
when sliding the appliance over the skin). Thorough cleaning of the epilation head before each
use will minimize the risk of infection.
USEFUL TIPS
Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair is at the optimum length of 2-5 mm. If
hairs are longer, we recommend that you either shave first and epilate the shorter re-growing
hairs after 1 or 2 weeks or use the shaver head with trimmer to pre-cut hairs to this ideal
length.
When epilating for the first time, it is advisable to epilate in the evening, so that any possible
reddening can disappear over night.
To relax the skin we recommend applying a moisture cream after epilation.
As skin may be more sensitive directly after epilation avoid using irritating substances such as
deodorants with alcohol.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow up to the skin surface the regular use of massage
sponges (e.g. after showering) or exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-growing hair.
