General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root
can lead to ingrown hair and irritation
(e.g. itching, discomfort or reddening of
the skin), depending on the condition of
the skin and hair type. This is a normal
reaction and should quickly disappear,
but may be stronger when you are
removing hair at the root for the first few
times or if you have sensitive skin. If,
after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you
contact your physician. In general, the
skin reaction and the sensation of pain
tend to diminish considerably with the
repeated use of Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the skin
could occur when bacteria penetrate the
skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance over
the skin). Thorough cleaning of the
epilation head before each use will
minimise the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance

All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
should only be used after prior
consultation with a physician:
– eczema, wounds, inflamed skin
reactions such as folliculitis (purulent
hair follicles) and varicose veins
– around moles
– reduced immunity of the skin, e.g.
diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy,
Raynaud's disease
– haemophilia or immune deficiency.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair has the optimal length of
2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in). If hairs are longer,
we recommend that you precut the hair
to this length before epilating.
Fine hair which regrows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. after showering)
or exfoliation peelings help to prevent
in-growing hair as the gentle scrubbing
action removes the upper skin layer and
fine hair can get through to the skin
surface.
