SELECTING THE INTENSITY LEVEL
The intensity level designates the power of the pulsed light applied to your skin during
treatment. The power ranges from the lowest (1) to the highest (5) level.
The light indicator indicates the selected intensity level. If you increase the power, the
results will be better, but the risk of side effects increases (see chapter Possible side effects).
Warning: If you do not experience any abnormal reactions or discomfort within 48 hours
of the test treatment, you can select the power level of the epilator for the first treatment
according to the table below:
• Skin phototype I and II - For the first treatment, set the appliance to a maximum of the
3 rd intensity level. If you do not experience any problems, you can gradually increase the
intensity to level 4 and then to level 5 over the next few treatments.
• Skin phototype III and IV - For the first treatment, set the appliance to a maximum of the
2 intensity level. If you do not experience any problems, you can gradually increase the
nd
intensity to level 3 and then to level 4 over the next few treatments.
• Skin phototype V - For the first treatment, set the appliance to a maximum of the 1

X - The appliance is not suitable for people with skin phototype VI.
It is possible that the required intensity level will vary depending on the difference in skin
colour of one area of the skin to be treated. For example, the skin on the hands, which is
usually exposed to the sun more often, is darker than the inside of the arm. Be careful when
increasing the intensity on paler parts of the body. Although you will achieve better results,
the risk of side effects increases.
