User manual REMINGTON IPL 6000

[. . . ] I-Light is a home-use device for the removal of body hair using Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology. This is the same technology used in professional hair removal salons and clinics. I-Light works by directing an extremely short, intense pulse of light into the skin. The light energy is absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle temporarily disabling the growth mechanism in the hair and delaying hair growth. [. . . ] To avoid irritation to your skin after a treatment, take the following precautions: • Avoid sun exposure for 24 hours after a treatment. € Do not prolong sun exposure such as sunbathing, using a tanning bed, or self tan for at least 2 weeks after the last treatment. € After treatment, keep the area clean and dry and drink plenty of water to keep skin hydrated. € Do not take hot baths, showers, or use steam rooms and saunas for 24 hours after treatment. € Do not depilate (waxing, plucking, threading or creams) during the treatment – shaving is acceptable as long as you avoid shaving 24 hours after each treatment. € Do not use bleaching creams or perfumed products for 24 hours after treatment.
