Skin and hair type, Is it suitable for me?
- As with any other IPL treatment, It requires pigment in the hair to attract the light.
- After the light is attracted the hair roots heat up and stimulated not to grow back.
- In a similar fashion, low level of pigment in the skin is needed so that the skin will not attract the light.
- Thus, It works on (naturally) dark blonde, brown and black hair and on skin tones ranging from very white to dark brown and does not work on red, light-blonde and white/grey hair, or on very dark skin.
Are there any long term effects of IPL usage? Is it safe for my skin?
- Professional IPL treatments already exist for 25 years and researches haven't shown appearance of skin cancer or fertility issues.
- No serious side effects or damage from long-term use have been reported.
- IPL technology is derived from the technology used in professional salons.
- We have adapted the technology for safe and effective use at home.
- We have been developed in conjunction with leading dermatologists and tested with over 2000 women.
- It fulfills all the safety regulations for home-use appliances.
- As with any skincare product, it is important to use the appliance in accordance with the user manual.
- Our safety system ensures that light flashing is only possible if the attachment is in full contact with the skin.
- The integrated UV filter ensures that the light only affects the hair and not the skin.
- We recommend to use the product in a well-lit room, to reduce the perceived brightness of the flash. Side effects and complications, while possible, are very unlikely as long as you use this product according to the instructions and precautions included in the user manual.
Is this product safe to use on the face?
- By checking your skin type, you can choose the specific setting that will ensure effective yet gentle treatment on your face.
- As the area around your eyes is very sensitive, we recommend to use the product only below the cheekbones in order to avoid the risk of eye damage.
- To achieve optimal results on the cheeks, upper lip and chin, stand in front of a mirror to get a good view of the area to be treated and the 'ready to flash' light.
