The time it takes to complete a full hair growth cycle varies from person to person
and the location of the hair on the body, but is typically 18-24 months.
At any given moment the majority of the hair follicles in any skin area are in the resting
phases. These resting hairs cannot be affected by SensEpil™ by beurer.
However, hairs in the growing Anagen phase will respond to SensEpil™ by beurer
applications. It is important to understand that it may take a full hair growth cycle to
realize complete hair removal results with SensEpil™ by beurer.
9.3. Plan your SensEpil™ by beurer hair removal for best results
A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24 months. During this time multiple SensEpil™ by beurer sessions may be required in
order to achieve long term hair removal.
The effi ciency of hair removal varies from person to person according to body area, hair color, and how SensEpil™ by beurer is
used.
Typical SensEpil™ by beurer hair removal plan during a full hair growth cycle:
The fi rst 3-4 hair removal sessions with SensEpil™ by beurer will be approximately two weeks apart.
Hair removal sessions 5-7 with SensEpil™ by beurer will be approximately four weeks apart.
After that you will typically use SensEpil™ by beurer again from time to time if and when needed, until long-term results are
achieved.
This is the recommended treatment schedule that has proven to produce the best results, but you may plan your personal
treatment schedule differently and still get satisfactory results.
Note that treating the same body part more often than once in two weeks, will not improve hair removal results.
Typical maintenance with SensEpil™ by beurer after achieving long-term hair removal:
Due to hormonal or other physiological changes dormant hair follicles may become active. Maintenance hair removal sessions with
SensEpil™ by beurer may be required from time to time.

¹ Individual response depends on hair type as well as biological factors that may affect hair growth patterns. Some patients may
respond quicker or slower than the average number of treatments.
² One cannot expect long term epilation in a single or even double treatment sessions. The duration of the resting
period for hair follicles also depends on the body area.
