General information
All methods of hair removal at the root
can lead to skin irritations (e.g. itching,
discomfort and reddening) depending
on the condition of the skin and hair. This
is a normal reaction and should quickly
disappear, but may be stronger when you
are removing hair at the root for the first few
times or if you have sensitive skin.
If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you contact
your physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the sensation
of pain tend to diminish considerably 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 minimise 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 consultation 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,
