Epilation tips
•
If you have not used an epilator before,
or if you have not epilated for a long
period of time, it may take a short time
for your skin to adapt to epilation.
The discomfort experienced in the
beginning will decrease considerably
with repeated use as the skin adapts to
the process.
•
When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so
that any possible reddening can disap-
pear overnight. To relax the skin we rec-
ommend applying a moisturizing cream
after epilating.
•
Epilation is easier and more comforta-
ble when the hair is at the optimum
length of 2 to 5 mm. If hairs are longer,
we recommend that you first shave and
epilate the shorter, re-growing hairs
after 3 to 5 days.
•
Fine, re-growing hairs might not grow
up to the skin surface. Exfoliation helps
preventing in-grown hairs by scrubbing/
removing the upper skin layer so that
fine hairs can get through to the skin
surface.
Cleaning the epilation head
Regularly cleaning the epilation head
ensures good hygienic conditions. First
remove the cap used (1, 7 or 8) and rinse
it under running water. To remove the epil-
ation head, press the release button (5).
Dry: Thoroughly clean the tweezers ele-
ment using the cleaning brush.
Wet: After each wet usage (especially
with gel), clean the epilation head under
running water. During cleaning, turn on
the epilator for a few seconds. Re-attach
one of the caps only when the epilation
head is completely dry.
General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal from the root
can lead to in-grown hairs and irritation
(e.g. itching, discomfort or reddening of
the skin), depending on the condition of
the skin and hair. This is a normal reaction
and should quickly disappear, but may be
stronger when you are removing hair from
the root for the first few times or if you
have sensitive skin.
If after 36 hours the skin still shows irrita-
tion, we recommend that you contact your
physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the sen-
sation of pain tend to diminish considera-
bly with repeated use of Silk·épil.
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 epila-
tion head before each use will minimize
the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance
should only be used after prior consulta-
tion with a physician: eczema, wounds,
inflamed skin reactions such as folliculitis
(purulent hair follicles), varicose veins,
around moles, reduced immunity of the
skin, e.g. diabetes mellitus, during preg-
nancy, Raynaud’s disease, haemophilia,
immune deficiency or candida.
