Any minor injury resulting from hair
removal may allow bacteria to
penetrate the injury site potentially
causing small scars or a change in
pigmentation of the skin.The risk of
infection may be minimized by
thoroughly cleaning the rotating
discs before and/or after each use
(see Cleaning section).
◗

If you have been or begin taking hormone
medication, or have recently been pregnant, a
change in your hormone levels may
influence the thickness, color or amount
of hair growth.This is caused by the hormonal
changes, not by this method of hair removal.
◗
When removing hair from the area
behind knees, be sure to keep skin
stretched tightly to prevent pinching
of the skin by the rotating discs.
◗
When using the Epilator for the first time,
you may feel some discomfort, irritation
or experience reddening of the skin.This
is because the hairs are actually removed
at the root.The discomfort you feel will
tend to lessen with successive uses.You may
wish to remove hair in the evening so if any
reddening occurs it will diminish overnight.
◗
To help prevent ingrown hairs, it is
recommended to regularly exfoliate the legs at
least 2 days before epilating.
