Energy Level

Energy level determines the intensity of the Silk’n SensEpil™ light pulse delivered to your skin, from the lowest level (-) to the highest level (+).  
Corresponding 

INDICATOR LIGHTS

 on the 

CONTROL PANEL

 represent the increases in energy.  As energy level increases, so does hair removal 

results as well as the risk of possible side effects and complications.
Always start your first Silk’n SensEpil™ hair removal session at the lowest energy setting. 
If you experience little or no discomfort during and after the hair removal session using the lowest energy level, raise the energy level by one 

INDICATOR LIGHT

 at the next session, and so on for each subsequent session.

Whenever Silk’n SensEpil™ is turned on its energy level will automatically be reset to the lowest energy level. Only one 

ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR 

LIGHT

 will be on.

To set the energy level, press the 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 using “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the energy level. The 

number of 

ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHTS

 will coincide with the change in energy level.

For your safety, when using Silk’n™ SensEpil for the very first time, the system is automatically set to deliver the first 50 pulses at the lowest energy 
level, and the next 200 pulses at up to level 3.
To cancel these safety settings press and hold the “+” and ”-“ 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 simultaneously until you hear 2 consecutive 

“beep” sounds.
To restore these safety settings press and hold the “+” and ”-“ 

ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS

 simultaneously until you hear 3 consecutive 

“beep” sounds.

Do not raise the energy level if you experience abnormal discomfort during or after treating with Silk’n SensEpil™! 

(See “Possible Side Effects”)

Do not raise the energy level during hair removal session even if you experience no discomfort. Discomfort may also appear 

some time after the session.

Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

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

The Skin Color Sensor

Light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can result in adverse effects such as burns, blisters, and skin color changes (hyper- or hypo-pigmentation).
To prevent such misuse, a unique 

SKIN COLOR SENSOR

 in Silk’n SensEpil™ measures the treated skin complexion at the beginning of each session 

and occasionally during the session. If the 

SKIN COLOR SENSOR

 detects a skin tone that is too dark for Silk’n SensEpil™ application, the device will 

automatically stop emitting pulses.
If you see no light pulse and the 

SKIN TONE WARNING  INDICATOR LIGHT

 blink for 3 seconds, this is an indication that your skin tone, measured by the 

SKIN COLOR SENSOR

, is too dark for safe application. Try using the device on a different body part or contact the Silk’n SensEpil™ support.

Covering skin areas

Silk’n SensEpil™ 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 SensEpil™ 

APPLICATOR TIP

 is designed to create temporary pressure marks on the 

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