experienced in the beginning will decrease
considerably with repeated use as the skin
adapts to the process.
Epilation is easier and more comfortable
when the hair is at the optimum length of
2–5 mm. 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 recommend
applying a moisture cream after epilation.
Fine hair which re-grows might not grow
up to the skin surface. The regular use of
massage sponges (e.g. after showering) or
exfoliation peelings helps to prevent in-
growing hair as the gentle scrubbing action
removes the upper skin layer and fine hair
can get through to the skin surface.

How to epilate
The epilation head (2) features the new
Close-Grip Technology to ensure extra
efficiency especially with short hairs: The
40 tweezers always keep close contact to
the skin to remove hairs as short as grain
of sand. Thanks to its pivoting feature, it
perfectly adapts to the body contours, for
maximum thoroughness.
The High-Frequency Massage System (1a)
soothes your skin effectively for an ultra
gentle epilation.
The EfficiencyPro cap (1b) for fast epilation
ensures maximum skin contact, positioning
the tweezers at the optimum position at all
times.

switch clockwise to select your preferred
speed setting:

«II» = extra efficient
• The «smartlight» comes on instantly
and shines as long as the appliance is

the finest hair and giving you a better
control for improved epilation efficiency.
2 How to guide the appliance

between the massaging rollers is in
contact with your skin.
