The IPL epilator offers safe and long-lasting har removal in the privacy and comfort of your home.
It removes unwanted hair from the skin, especially from the skin of the legs and hands, as well as from sensitive areas
such as the armpits, bikini line and face (cheeks, upper lip, chin).
The appliance can be used by both men and women over 18 years of age.
If you are not sure if you can use the epilator, please consult your dermatologist or general practitioner.
PREPARING THE SKIN
•
Before using the appliance, the skin must be shaved, clean, dry and free of any residues of deodorants or any other
cosmetic products.
•
Do not remove hair with an electric epilator or wax before using the IPL epilator. The epilation (removal of hairs with
roots) causes the IPL epilator hair removal to be ineffective.
•
Do not expose your skin to sunlight 4 weeks before using the epilator and 2 weeks after its use. Clothing that
adequately covers the skin or a sunscreen (with a minimum protection factor of 50) protects you against the sunlight.
We recommend using sunscreen products regularly for 3 weeks before and after the treatment.
•
If you applied self-tanning lotion to your skin, do not use the epilator until the tanning effect of the lotion has
completely disappeared.
•
Always cover tattoos, birthmarks or dark marks, such as freckles, nevi, warts or tumours, before using the device.
•
Never use the appliance on nipples or genitals (male or female).
•
Never use the appliance on any parts of your body where you might later want hair.
•
Never use the appliance for any purpose other than hair removal.
•
Always make sure that you aim the appliance at the treated area of the skin and that it is touching it fully before
releasing the pulse.
SETTING OF THE IPL EPILATOR
1. Remove the appliance and all its accessories from the box.
2. Plug in the power adapter cable.
3. Plug in the adapter.
4. Press the On/Off button to turn the appliance on. The LCD display and the Ready indicator light up. You will hear
a faint fan noise.
5. The appliance is ready for use.
6. Select the intensity according to your skin type. Use the On/Off button to select the desired intensity. For example,
to go from level 1 to level 4, press the On/Off button repeatedly until you reach the desired intensity. The appliance
gradually increases the intensity level from 4 to 5, then back from level 5 to levels 4, 3, 2 and 1.
7. Press the application surface of the appliance against your skin. Once the appliance is in direct contact with the skin,
the Ready indicator flashes.
8. The appliance is equipped with a mechanism that protects the eyes during use. The contact sensor prevents the
pulse from being released, until the application surface of the appliance is in full contact with the skin. Therefore,
always make sure that the application surface is correctly applied to the skin.
9. Pulse release button - by pressing this button the appliance emits a pulse of light and you may feel a slight sensation
of heat or tingling.
10. Remove the epilator from the treated area of the skin.
11. Move the application surface to the next area of the skin you wish to treat. The pressure marks left on the skin after
using the epilator will help you to choose the right place to apply the light pulse again, so as to avoid releasing two
pulses at the same area or leaving too much space between the treated areas. The appliance recharges immediately
after each pulse release. After 1.6 seconds (at intensity level 1), the Ready indicator lights up again. The appliance is
now ready to release another pulse.
Warning:
Do not treat the same area of the skin more than once during one treatment session. Re-treatment of the
same area of the skin increases the risk of side effects.
