Infection or bruising
Infection of the skin is exceedingly rare but is still a possible risk
following a skin burn or wound caused by the device.
EN
Very rarely, the device may cause blue-purple bruising that can
last 5 to 10 days. As the bruising fades, there may be a rust-brown
discolouration of the skin (hyperpigmentation).
Scarring
Although very rare, scarring may occur. Usually, the scar is in the
form of a flat and white lesion on the skin (hypotrophic). However,
it can be large and red (hypertrophic) or large and extend beyond
the margins of the injury itself (keloid). Subsequent aesthetic
treatments may be required to improve the appearance of the
scar.
Pigment changes
The device 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 hypopigmentation (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 hypopigmentation are rare.
Stop use immediately if any of these side effects are more
[
severe.
See your physician if the side effects do not go away within
[
2 to 3 days.
