General information about epilation
All methods of hair removal at the roots can lead to minor skin injuries and in-growing hairs. All micro- injuries caused by plucking hairs may lead to inflammation through the penetration of bacteria into the skin. Thoroughly cleaning the epilation discs before each use minimizes 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 and when removing hairs at root level. This is a normal reaction that will quickly disappear.
If, after 48 hours, your skin still shows irritations, we recommend you to contact your physician.
In general, the skin reactions and the sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with repeated use.
If you have any doubts about using this appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance should only be used after
consultation with a physician.
•eczema, wounds, inflamed skin reactions such as folliculitis (purulent hair follicles) and varicose veins
•around moles
•reduced immunity of skin, e.g. diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy, Raynaud’s disease
•hemophilia or immune deficiency
This product is designed to remove hair on legs, arms, and sensitive areas like underarms or the bikini- line using the appropriate head depending on the needs.
