Braun Silk-épil SuperSoft - Manual (Page 8)

8
The high-precision epilation system
of the Silk·épil SuperSoft Plus is
specially designed for a comfortable
and longlasting hair removal. Even
very short hairs (0.5 mm in length)
will thoroughly be removed at the
root. In general, regrowing hairs
will become finer and thinner.
Additionally, the soothing
attachment makes the epilation
process more gentle. It provides
a pleasant tickle, thus masking
the epilation feeling.
Read these use instructions carefully
and completely before using the
appliance.
Important
All methods of hair removal at the
roots can lead to minor skin injuries
and in-growing hairs. All micro-inju-
ries caused by plucking hairs may
lead to inflammation through the
penetration of bacteria into the skin
(e.g. when sliding the appliance over
the skin). Thoroughly cleaning the
tweezer head before each use mini-
mizes the risk of infection.
Depending on the condition of your
skin and hairs, you may experience
some irritation (e.g. feeling of pain,
skin reddening) when you start using
the product. When removing hairs at
root level, this is a normal reaction
that will quickly disappear again.
If, after 36 hours, your skin still shows
irritations, we recommend to contact
your physician.
In general, the skin reactions and the
sensation of pain tend to diminish
considerably with the repeated use
of Silk·épil.
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 consultation
with a physician:

reactions such as folliculitis
(purulent hair follicles)
and varicose veins

– reduced immunity of the skin,
e.g. diabetes mellitus, during
pregnancy, Raynaud’s disease

deficiency.
• Silk·épil is designed to remove
hair on legs, but can also be used
on all sensitive areas like arms,
underarms or the bikini line.
• When switched on, the appliance
must never come in contact with
the hair on your head, eyelashes,
ribbons, etc. to prevent any
danger of injury as well as to
prevent blockage or damage
to the appliance.
• This appliance must never be
used in the vicinity of or over
water (e.g. a filled wash basin,
bathtub or shower).
• Keep the appliance out of the
reach of children.
