Epilation in general
After epilating with the Satinxice, your skin will
stay smooth and hair-free for weeks. As some
women may develop skin irritation and ingrown
hairs, we recommend that you read the text
below carefully.
- Do not use the appliance when the skin to be
epilated is irritated or when you have varicose
veins, pimples, moles (with hairs) or scratches
without consulting your doctor first. When you
have a reduced immune response, e.g. during
pregnancy or if you are suffering from diabetes
mellitus, haemophilia or immunodeficiency, you
might be more susceptible. If any problems
should occur, please contact your doctor as
well.
- Because the appliance pulls the hairs out by the
roots, the skin may be slightly sensitive or
become somewhat red and irritated.This
phenomenon is absolutely normal (especially
when you have just started using the appliance)
and will quickly disappear. As you use the
appliance more often, the skin irritation will
decrease. Moreover, the hairs that grow back
after epilation gradually become softer and
easier to remove. If, however, your skin irritation
has not disappeared within three days, you are
advised to consult your doctor.
- When you epilate for the first time, we advise
you to try the appliance out on an area with
relatively little hair growth. In this way you can
get accustomed to this epilating method.
