Make sure your skin is clean, dry, and free from any products like creams or deodorants.
Plug in the device to a power outlet.

How to Use

Turn on the device by pressing the power button.
Select the intensity level. The SensoAdapt skin tone sensor will recommend the best setting for your skin tone.
Place the device at a 90-degree angle on the skin so that it covers the area you want to treat.
Press the treatment button to emit a flash. Slowly glide the device over your skin to the next area.
For sensitive areas or first-time users, use the gentle or extra gentle mode.
Repeat the process once a week for the initial 4-12 weeks, then adjust frequency as needed based on hair regrowth.

Aftercare

Avoid exposing treated areas to sunlight and always use a high-SPF sunscreen.
Do not wax or pluck hairs between treatments, as this can reduce the effectiveness of IPL.

Troubleshooting Tips

No Flash Emitted: Check that the device is in full contact with the skin and the skin tone sensor has recognized a suitable skin tone.
Skin Reaction: If you experience any adverse reactions, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician.
Device Overheating: Let the device cool down before continuing use.
