Intended use This appliance is intended for the removal of unwanted hair. It is able to deliver long-term reduction in the number of hairs that regrow after treatment. [. . . ] ENGLISH 13 Common side effects -- Your skin may show slight redness and/or may tingle or feel warm. This reaction is absolutely harmless and disappears quickly. -- A skin reaction similar to sunburn may occur on the treated area for a short while. If this does not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult a doctor. -- Dry skin and itching may occur due to shaving or a combination of shaving and light treatment. This is harmless and disappears within a few days. You can cool the area with an ice pack or a wet facecloth. If dryness persists, you can apply a non-scented moisturiser to the skin 24 hours after the treatment. Rare side effects -- Burns, excessive redness and swelling occur rarely and are usually the result of using an intensity level that is too high for your skin colour. If these reactions do not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult a doctor. Postpone the next treatment until the skin has healed completely and use a lower intensity level. -- Skin discolouration occurs very rarely. Skin discolouration manifests itself as either a darker or lighter patch than the surrounding area. This may happen if you use an intensity level that is too high for your skin colour. If the discolouration does not disappear within 2 weeks, we advise you to consult a doctor. Do not treat discoloured areas until the discolouration has disappeared. -- Skin infection and inflammation occur very rarely. These reactions may occur when you use the appliance on shaving wounds or cuts, on already existing wounds or on ingrown hairs. -- Excessive pain may occur during or after treatment if you use the appliance on unshaved skin, if you use the appliance at an intensity level that is too high for your skin colour, if you flash the same area more than once, and if you use the appliance on open wounds, inflammations, infections, tattoos, burns, etc. See chapter ‘Contraindications, precautions and warnings’ for more information. 14 ENGLISH Preparing for use Preparing treatment areas 1 Before each treatment, shave the areas you intend to treat as long as hairs continue to grow back.
