How to achieve optimal results

First two months

- It is normal that hairs are still visible after the first few

treatments (see chapter ‘Introduction’, section ‘Working

principle’ for more information).

- To remove all hairs successfully and prevent the hair

follicle from becoming active again, the treatments have

to be repeated once every two weeks for the first two

months. Your skin should be smooth by then.

Please read section ‘Maintenance phase’ to find out how

you can keep these results.

Maintenance phase

- To ensure that your skin stays smooth, we advise you

to repeat the treatment every 4 to 8 weeks. The time

between treatments may vary based on your individual

hair regrowth and also across different body areas.

If too many hairs grow back between treatments,

simply shorten the treatment interval again, but do not

treat any area more often than once every two weeks.

When you use the appliance more frequently than

recommended, you do not increase the effectiveness but

you do increase the risk of skin reactions.

After use

- Press and hold the on/off/intensity button to switch off

the appliance. Pull the adapter out of the wall socket.

- Clean the skin contact surface (see chapter ‘Cleaning and

maintenance’).

- Store the appliance in a safe and dry place in its original box.

- Do not apply any perfumed cosmetics to treated

skin immediately after treatment.

- Do not use deodorant immediately after treatment

of the underarms. Wait until any skin redness has

disappeared.

- See chapter ‘Contraindications, precautions and

warnings’, section ‘Warning about sun exposure and

artificial tanning’ for information on sun exposure and

artificial tanning.
