Infection
An infection of the skin is extremely rare, yet still a possible risk after a burn or lesion to the skin caused
by the beurer SalonPro System.
Haematoma
In very rare cases, using the beurer SalonPro System can result in blue/purple haematoma that may last
five to ten days. Once the haematoma fades,
rusty brown discolouration of the skin (hyperpigmentation) can occur, which may be permanent.
STEP 7: What can be expected from treatment using the beurer SalonPro System?
For many users, the beurer SalonPro System may be the first experience they have with a light-based
device developed for use at home. The beurer SalonPro System is simple to use and hair removal ses-
sions do not take long. During a session with the beurer SalonPro System, it is normal to experience
and notice the following:
• Whirring of the fan – The cooling fan in the beurer SalonPro System makes a noise similar to a hair-
dryer. This is normal.
• cracking noise with every pulse – When a pulse is triggered from the beurer SalonPro System, it is
normal to hear a kind of cracking noise at the same time as the flash of light.
• Slight impression of the applicator – This is necessary and helpful for the placement of adjacent
light pulses and is part of the beurer SalonPro System’s safety function.
• Feeling of warmth and prickling sensation – During each light pulse, it is normal to feel a slight
warmth and prickling sensation from the light energy. Remember that it is important to always use
the lowest energy level for the first hair removal sessions. You may feel a certain warmth up to an
hour after using the beurer SalonPro System.
• Slight reddening of the skin – During or directly after your session with the beurer SalonPro Sys-
tem, it is not unusual to experience a slight reddening of the skin. This is usually most visible around
the hairs themselves. However, if you notice complete reddening of the skin, blistering or burns, stop
using the beurer SalonPro System immediately.
