7. Possible side effects using Silk'n Glide™

When used according to the instructions, side effects and complications associated with the use of Silk'n Glide™
are uncommon. However every cosmetic procedure, including those designed for home use, involves some
degree of risk. Therefore it is important that you understand and accept the risks and complications that can
occur with pulsed light hair removal systems designed for home use.
Adverse Reaction
Minor Skin Discomfort –
Although home pulsed light hair removal is generally very well-tolerated, most users do feel
some mild discomfort during use, usually described as being a mild stinging sensation on
the treated skin areas. The stinging sensation usually lasts during the time of the application
itself or for a few minutes thereafter. Anything beyond this minor discomfort is abnormal
and means that either you should not continue to use Silk'n Glide™ because you are
unable to tolerate the hair removal application, or that the energy level setting is too high.
Skin Redness –
Your skin may become red right after using Silk'n Glide™ or within 24 hours of using Silk'n
Glide™. Redness generally clears up within 24 hours. See your doctor if redness does not go
away within 2 to 3 days.
Increased Sensitivity to Skin –
The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you may encounter dryness or flaking of the skin.
Pigment Changes –
Silk'n Glide™ targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented cells in the hair follicle and
the hair follicle itself. Nevertheless there is risk of temporary hyperpigmentation (increased
pigment or brown discoloration) or hypopigmentation (whitening) to the surrounding skin.
This risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher for people with darker skin tones. Usually
discoloration or changes to skin pigment are temporary and permanent hyperpigmentation
or hypopigmentation rarely occur.
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 one should
avoid exposure to sun.
