General information about
epilation
All methods of hair removal at the
roots can lead to minor skin injuries
and in-growing hairs. All microinjuries 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 bikiniline using the appropriate head
depending on the needs.
When switched on, the appliance
must never come in contact with
the hair on your head, eyelashes,
ribbons or clothes, etc. to prevent any
danger of injury as well as to prevent
blockage or damage of the unit.
