Home Skinovations Ltd. Silk'n, Instructions For Use Manual

15

Covering skin areas

Silk’n™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and progressing sequentially towards 
the other end. This technique allows better control of skin coverage, and helps you avoid treating the same area more 
than once or overlapping skin areas.

When applied to the skin, the Silk’n™ 

A

PPLICATOR

 T

IP

 is designed to create temporary pressure marks on the 

treated area. These visible marks can be used for proper positioning of the next pulse.

Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!

If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!

4.5.   What to Expect when treating with Silk’n™?

For many people, using Silk’n™ may be their first experience with a light-based device designed for home use.  Silk’n™ is simple to use, and hair removal 
sessions go by quickly.  During a Silk’n™ session it is normal to experience and feel:

A Flash of Light

 – The bright light of Silk’n™ will not harm the eyes when applied to non-facial sites, and special eye-protection is not needed 

when using Silk’n™.

A Fan Noise

 – The cooling fan in Silk’n™ makes noise similar to a hairdryer.  This is normal.

A Pop Sound with Each Pulse

 – When a pulse of HPL™ light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop sound simultaneously with the flash of light.

Moderate Pressure of the 

A

PPLICATOR

 – This is necessary and helpful for placement of adjacent pulses of light, and is part of the unique safety 

feature of Silk’n™.

A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling

 – During each pulse of light it is normal to feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling from the light energy.  

Remember it is important to always use low energy settings for initial hair removal sessions.  You may feel some warmth for up to an hour after 
your Silk’n™ session.

Some Mild Red or Pink Color

 – During and just after your Silk’n™ session it is not uncommon to see some very mild, pink-like color of the skin.  This is 

usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.  However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns stop use of Silk’n™ immediately.
