Cleaning
Regularly cleaning the epilation head
ensures good hygienic conditions and a
reliable epilation performance.
Remove the cap (1 or 7) before cleaning.
Cleaning with the brush
Thoroughly clean the tweezers element
using the cleaning brush.
Cleaning under running water
After each wet usage (especially with gel),
clean the epilation head under running
water. During cleaning, turn on the epila-
tor for a few seconds. Then remove the
epilation head and let it dry. Re-attach the
epilation head after it has dried completely.
General information on epilation
All methods of hair removal from the root
can lead to in-grown hairs and irritation
(e.g. itching, discomfort or reddening of
the skin), depending on the condition of
the skin and hair. This is a normal reaction
and should quickly disappear, but may be
stronger when you are removing hair from
the root for the first few times or if you
have sensitive skin.
If after 36 hours the skin still shows irrita-
tion, we recommend that you contact your
physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the sen-
sation of pain tend to diminish consider-
ably with repeated use of Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the skin
could occur when bacteria penetrate the
skin (e.g. when sliding the appliance over
the skin). Thorough cleaning of the epila-
tion head before each use will minimize
the risk of infection.
If you have any doubts about using this
appliance, please consult your physician.
In the following cases, this appliance
should only be used after prior consulta-
tion with a physician: eczema, wounds,
inflamed skin reactions such as folliculitis
(purulent hair follicles), varicose veins,
around moles, reduced immunity of the
skin, e.g. diabetes mellitus, during preg-
nancy, Raynaud’s disease, haemophilia,
immune deficiency or candida.
