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 optimum length of

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

we recommend that you either shave first

and epilate the shorter re-growing hairs

after 1 or 2 weeks.

When epilating for the first time, it is

advisable to epilate in the evening, so that

any possible reddening can disappear

overnight. To relax the skin we recom-

mend 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

ingrowing hair as the gentle scrubbing

action removes the upper skin layer and

fine hair can get through to the skin

surface.

For optimum performance hold the

appliance at a right angle (90°) against

your skin. Guide it in a slow, contin-

uous movement without pressure

against the hair growth, in the direction

of the switch. As hair can grow in

different directions, it may also be

helpful to guide the appliance in dif-

ferent directions to achieve optimum

results.
