Skin redness
Your skin may become red immediately after using the device or
within 24 hours. Redness generally clears up within 24 hours.
See your doctor if redness does not go away within 2 to 3
days.
Make sure you use the energy level that is comfortable for you
and suitable for your skin colour.
Increased sensitivity of the skin
The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you may
encounter dryness or flaking of the skin.
Pigment changes
Silk'n Jewel
targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented
cells in the hair follicle and the hair follicle itself. Nevertheless there
is a risk of temporary hyper-pigmentation (increased pigment or
brown discolouration) or hypo-pigmentation (whitening) to the
surrounding skin. Risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher
for people with darker skin tones or heavily tanned skin. Usually
discolouration or changes to skin pigment are temporary, and
permanent hyper-pigmentation or hypo-pigmentation are rare.
Excessive redness and swelling
In rare cases, treated skin may become very red and swollen. This
is more common in sensitive areas of the body. The redness and
swelling should subside within 2 to 7 days and should be treated
with frequent applications of ice. Gentle cleansing is OK, but avoid
exposure to the sun.
Blisters or burns
Cool the affected area and apply anti-burn cream. Wait until the
area has healed completely before another treatment, and use
a lower energy level. If the skin does not return to normal
within 3 days, consult your physician.
