INSTRucTIONS
espilsense Mini is intended for use on legs,
arms, underarms, bikini line, back, shoul-
ders, chest, and on allowed facial areas.
DevIce set-uP
1. remove all components from the box
(handheld device and power supply).
2. Before beginning the treatment, make
sure the device is clean, dry, and intact.
3. Plug the power supply end into electrical
outlet and the cord end into the device
socket (see image - item 6).
the device is now ready for use.
HOw TO PREPARE yOuRSElf
1. Prior to use, make sure your skin is sha-
ved, clean and dry (free of any residues
of powders, creams, makeup, antiperspi-
rants or deodorants).
2. Between treatments, you can shave but
don’t wax or pluck hair.
3. Never use flammable liquids such as al-
cohol (including perfumes, sanitizers or
other applications containing alcohol) or
acetone to clean the skin one hour before
using epil Mini as it may cause burning of
the skin.
reMeMBer
: epil Mini comes with a built-in
skin-tone sensor, enabling the application
only on a suitable skin tone range. this
unique safety feature will not let you treat
areas where your skin is too dark or too
tanned, even if your general skin type is
lighter.
4. for the device maintenance and prolon-
ged use, device cleaning is a must (cle-
aning chapter).
5. Perform a preliminary test on a small
patch of the skin (preferably on the inten-
ded treatment area) 48 hours prior to first
use of epil Mini, to determine energy level
settings for your treatment (as depicted in
the preliminary test section).
6. Do not use epil Mini on the face above
the cheek line: around eyes, eyebrows,
or eyelashes as this could cause serious
eye damage.
7. epil Mini is suitable for men. however,
male body hair, especially those on the
chest, will require more hair reduction
sessions.
PRElIMINARy TEST
the preliminary test is intended to determi-
ne your skin’s reaction to epil Mini treatment
and to help you set the optimal energy level
for each treatment area.
Performa preliminary test on each area you
intend to treat 48 hours prior to the full treat-
ment.
nOte
:Do not treat full areas with energy le-
vels that you have not tested before!
· Do not treat the tested area for at least 1
week after the preliminary test is done.
1. select the lowest energy level and deliver
a pulse on the selected preliminary test
skin area.
2. If you feel comfortable with the energy le-
vel, increase it to level 2 and perform an
additional pulse on the next spot.
3. Only if you feel comfortable, you may
reach to the maximum energy level 3.
4. stop the test once you do not feel com-
fortable, as increasing the energy level
increases the risk of adverse effects.
5. If you see adverse effects such as severe
redness or blistering stop the test imme-
diately.
6. wait 48 hours and examine the tested
area.
If the skin in the tested area seems normal
(no response or mild redness), you can pro-
ceed with a full treatment in the highest com-
fortable energy level that you have tested.
If you see extreme redness, swelling, or blis-
tering even in the low-energy level settings,
do not do the full treatment in that area.
HOw TO uSE EPIl MINI dEvIcE
nOte
: a preliminary test should be conduc-
ted before proceeding to a full treatment.
see “preliminary test section” above.
1. to turn the device on, press the On/Off-
button (see image – item 1). energy level
1 green indicator will light up.
2. the device sets itself on the lowest ener-
gy level - level 1. for other energy levels
press the energy level selection button
(see image - item 1).
3. you may decrease or increase the energy
level according to your convenience (to
reach the level determined in the prelimi-
nary test section). the energy level lights
(see image – item 4) will light up green on
the level scale according to the selected
energy level.
4. Place the device treatment window (see
image - item 7) on the desired body area
with full contact to the skin. If the device
is not properly applied or your skin tone is
too dark/tanned, the indicator will be “blin-
king” red. In this case, the device will not
trigger a pulse in that area of your skin.
