If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows irri-

tation, we recommend that you contact

your physician.

In general, the skin reaction and the sen-

sation of pain tend to diminish consider-

ably 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 mini-

mise the risk of infection.

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 consul-

tation 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.

Some useful tips

Epilation is easier and more comfortable

when the hair is at the optimal length of

2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in.) If hairs are longer,

we recommend to pre-cut to this length.

When epilating for the first time, it is advis-

able to epilate in the evening, so that any

possible reddening can disappear over-

night. To relax the skin we recommend

applying a moisture cream after epilation.

Fine hair which re-grows might not grow

up to the skin surface. The regular use of

massage sponges (e.g. after showering)

or exfoliation peelings helps 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.

Preparing your skin

Your skin must be dry and free from

grease or cream.

Optional skin cooling: For the first few

epilations or if you have sensitive skin you

can use the cooling application, recom-

mended by dermatologists to help reduce

possible skin irritation.

• Ensure that the gel pack has been in the

deep freezer (***) for at least 2 hours

(for convenience you can store the gel

packs in the freezer).

• Insert a gel pack underneath the glove's

transparent foil. Use only with glove.

• Put transparent (cool) side of the glove

on your leg.

• Start cooling for approx. 1/2 minute,

longer if needed.

• Epilate the cooled skin area immediately

as described in section C.

• Repeat cooling and epilating until com-

pletion.

• While epilating, please ensure your skin

is dry.

Important:

Apply cooling glove to the

same area for no longer than 2 minutes.

Keep away from sunlight. Do not use gel

p

ack when damaged. Dispose of in house-
