To remove all hairs successfully and to prevent the hair root from becoming active again, the treatments have to be repeated once every two weeks for the first two months.Your skin should be smooth and hair-free by then.To ensure that you keep these results, we advise you to repeat the treatments on the underarms, bikini area, arms and stomach every two weeks. On the legs, regrowth is usually slower.Therefore, a treatment once every four weeks is probably sufficient to keep your legs smooth and hair-free. If you see too many hairs grow back within these four weeks, then simply shorten the interval between treatments again, but do not treat more often than once every two weeks.

Do not use the appliance if your body hair is light blond, red, grey or white. Do not use the appliance either if you have very dark skin.

For proper hair-removal results, you have to make overlaps when you use the appliance. See chapter ‘Using the appliance’, step 11.

This is normal. It is part of the natural cycle of hair growth that hair starts growing again.The hairs that come back, however, tend to be softer and thinner.
