General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root
can lead to in-growing hair and irritation
(e.g. itching, discomfort and reddening
of the skin) 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, during pregnancy,
Raynaud's disease, haemophilia,
candida or immune deficiency.
Some useful tips
If you have not used an epilator before,
or if you have not epilated for a longer
period of time, it may take a short time
for your skin to adapt to epilation. The
discomfort experienced in the beginning
will decrease considerably with repeated
use as the skin adapts to the process.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
