weeks. As the hair that re-grows is fine
and soft, there will be no more stubble.

General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal at the root
can lead to ingrowing 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 mini-
mise 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 consul-
tation 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 or immune deficiency.
Some useful tips
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm (0.08–0.2 in.) If hairs are longer,
we recommend that you either shave first
and epilate the shorter re-growing hairs
after 1 or 2 weeks.
When epilating for the first time, it is
advisable to epilate in the evening, so that
any possible reddening can disappear
overnight. To relax the skin we recom-
