The skin reaction
after treatment
lasts longer than
usual.

light intensity

You did not flash
an area adjacent to
an area you treated
before.
You have to release the
flashes close to each other
and there should be some
overlap between the
flashes.
The device is not
effective on your
body hair color.
If you have light blond,
grey, red or white hair, the
treatment is not effective.
You do not use the
device as often as
recommended.
To remove all hairs
successfully, we advise
you to follow the
recommended treatment
schedule. You can reduce
the time between
treatments, but do not
treat more often than once
every two weeks.
The results of the
treatment are not
satisfactory.
You respond more
slowly to IPL
treatment.
Continue using the device
for at least 6 months, as
hair regrowth can still
decrease over the course
of this period.
