I Epilation
Epilation tips
If you have not used an epilator before, or if you have not epilated for a
longer period of time, it may take a short time for your skin to adapt to
epilation. The discomfort experienced in the beginning will decrease
considerably with repeated use as the skin adapts to the process.
When epilating for the first time, it is advisable to epilate in the evening, so
that any possible reddening can disappear overnight. To relax the skin we
recommend applying a moisturizing cream after epilation.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable when the hair is between 0.5–5 mm
long. If hairs are longer, we recommend that you shave first and let the hair
grow back to at least 0.5 mm length.
Dry usage: Your skin must be dry and free from grease or cream.
Wet usage: Make sure your skin is very moist in order to achieve optimum
gliding conditions for the appliance.
How to epilate
Make sure that the epilation head (2) is attached and provided with the
High-Frequency Massage System (1).
A Select speed «I» for gentle epilation, speed «II» for efficient epilation.
B Always stretch your skin when epilating. Make sure that the epilation
area is in close contact with your skin. Guide the appliance in a slow,
continuous movement without pressure against the hair growth, in the
direction of the switch. As hair can grow in different directions, it may
also be helpful to guide the appliance in different directions to achieve
optimal results. The High Frequency Massage System ensures best skin
comfort during epilation.
C Leg epilation
Epilate your legs from the lower leg in an upward direction. When
epilating behind the knee, keep the leg stretched out straight.
D Underarm and bikini line epilation
Especially during the first applications these areas are particularly
sensitive to pain. Therefore, we recommend that you select speed «I» for
the first few epilation processes.
With repeated usage the pain sensation will diminish. For more comfort,
ensure that the hair is at the optimum length of 0,5–5 mm.
