Always use only the
precision attachment
to treat the upper lip, chin
and sideburns. Never use the appliance around the eyes or near the
eyebrows. When you treat your upper lip, chin or sideburns, make sure you
do not expose your face to direct sunlight in the 24 hours following the
treatment. Apply a sunblock (SPF 30+) after the treatment for the next
two weeks when you expose your face to direct sunlight.
Tip: To achieve optimal results on your upper lip, chin and sideburns stand in
front of a mirror to get a good view of the area to be treated and the ‘ready to
flash’ light.
Tip: Apply a thick layer of white eyeliner to your lip and lip margin. This white
line ensures the energy of the flash is reflected and does not touch your lip if
you flash the lip unintentionally.
Tip: Because of the contours of the jaws, it may be difficult to bring the safety
ring into full contact with the skin and to release a flash. Put your tongue
between your teeth and upper lip or puff up your cheeks to make this easier.
Tip: The reflected light does not harm your eyes. If the scattered light is
unpleasant, close your eyes when you release a flash.
how to achieve optimal results
- It is normal that hairs are still visible after the first few treatments (see
chapter ‘Introduction’, section ‘Working principle’ for more information).
- To remove all hairs successfully and prevent the hair follicle from
becoming active again, the treatments have to be repeated once every
two weeks for the first two months. Your skin should be smooth and
hair-free by then. Please read section ‘Maintenance phase’ to find out
how you can keep these results.
Maintenance phase
- To ensure that your skin stays smooth and hair-free, we advise you
to repeat the treatment every four to six weeks. The time between
treatments may vary based on your individual hair regrowth and also
across different body areas. If too many hairs grow back between
treatments, simply shorten the treatment interval again, but do not
treat any area more often than once every two weeks. When you use
the appliance more frequently than recommended, you do not increase
the effectiveness but you do increase the risk of skin reactions.
possible side effects and skin reactions
Common skin reactions:
- Your skin may show slight redness and/or may prickle, tingle or feel
warm. This reaction is absolutely harmless and disappears quickly.
- A skin reaction similar to sunburn may occur on the treated area for a
short while. If this does not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to
consult a doctor.
- Dry skin and itching may occur because of the combination of shaving
and light treatment. This is harmless and disappears within a few days.
You can cool the area with an ice pack or a wet facecloth. If dryness
persists, you can apply a non-scented moisturiser on the treated area
24 hours after the treatment.
