All microinjuries caused by plucking hairs may lead to inflammation through the penetration of bacteria into the skin. Thoroughly cleaning the epilation discs before each use minimizes the risk of infection. Depending on the condition of your skin and hairs, you may experience some irritation (e.g. feeling of pain, skin reddening) when you start using the product. When removing hairs at root level, this is a normal reaction that will quickly disappear again. If, after 48 hours, your skin still shows irritations, we recommend you to contact your physician. In general, the skin reactions and the sensation of pain tend to diminish considerably with a repeated use. If you have any doubts about using this appliance, please consult your physician. In the following cases, this appliance 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 skin, e.g. diabetes mellitus, during pregnancy, Raynaud' disease · hemophilia or immune deficiency 4 Epilator-the Skin Protector series are designed to remove hair on legs, arms, and sensitive areas like underarms or the bikini-line with each heads depending on the needs.

Correct usage for best epilation results · When the hair is long, it makes hair removal easier and reduces pain to trim the hair before epilation. Leg and arm hair should be shortened a length of 3 to 5 mm, and underarm and bikini-line hair to a length of 1 to 2 mm. · Apply epilator at right angles (90°) against your skin. For best epilation results keep in contact with the skin surface. Pressing gently and guide the appliance slowly against hair growth. This switch-side of the appliance shows against hair growth. (Fig. 3) · Rub your skin to lift short hairs. · Move the epilator slowly on the skin with the skin protector vertically touching. Moving head (Underarms, arms/ a legs epilation head) (Fig. 4 F ) · The head moves to the left and right to quickly carry out epilation on short hairs. This feature promotes efficient epilation. Swinging head (Underarms, arms/ b legs epilation head) (Fig. 4 F ) · The head swings to ensure that it stays in close contact with the skin. The epilation area of the arms/legs head is wider, which means that the head swings more. 6 Legs and arms epilation (Fig. 5) Please use the large epilation head. Important for arms and legs epilation: Apply epilator at right angles (90°) against your skin. Pressing the appliance too hard onto the skin or using it on an angle can cause damage to the skin. Press gently and guide the appliance slowly against hair growth. If you move the appliance too fast then you will find a large number of missed hairs. Underarms and bikini-line epilation (Fig. 6) Please use the small epilation head. When epilating underarm, your arm should be raised. Be aware that these areas are particularly sensitive to pain. However, the pain sensation will diminish with repeated usage. For this specific application, we would like to give the following advices: · Hairs on the underarms are growing in different directions, therefore move the epilator in several directions. · Before epilating, thoroughly clean the respective area to remove residue (like deodorant). Then dry carefully to avoid skin irritation. · Hair should not be longer than 5mm. · Do not use alcoholic deodorants. with pre-epilation comb. For underarms and bikini-line It is helpful to use a shaver head 3 to 5 days before using the epilator. Shaving Before using make sure the blade is not warped or damaged, as this may cause injury. Apply the shaver head so that the whole of the blade is in close contact with the skin. Press gently and guide the appliance slowly against hair growth. Applying with too much force prevents hairs from being guided to the blades so that some areas may be left unshaved. Trimmer It is helpful to use the trimmer only when you want to cut the long hair. When the trimmer is up, apply the blade gently. Shaving with pre-epilation comb When the hair is long before epilation, we recommend you to use a shaver head with pre-epilation comb. Place the pre-epilation comb onto the shaver head, and slide trimmer up. When the pre-epilation comb is in place, make sure the comb is in close contact with the skin. · Hair is easier to remove after bathing or showering. But your skin must be completely dry! · In order to prevent the risk of ingrowing hairs, we recommend the regular use of massage sponges, e.g. after showering, or exfoliation peelings.
