A popping sound with each pulse: When a pulse of eHPL™ light is activated, it is normal
to hear a subtle pop sound simultaneously with the flash of light.

A sensation of warmth and tingling: During each Galvanic pulse sequence it is normal
to feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling from the Galvanic and light energies.

noticeable around the hairs themselves.
