SKIN TONE, HAIR COLOUR & AREA OF INTENDED USE:
The IPL Pure Skin Pro device is intended for the removal of unwanted body hair in both women and men.
The device must only be used on the legs, armpits, bikini line, chest, stomach, back and face below the cheekbones
For facial hair removal in women, the device can only be used on facial hair below the cheek line
Please note the device is not suitable for men’s facial hair removal (only suitable for facial use by women).
NB: PLEASE REFER TO THE SKIN TONE & HAIR COLOUR CHART IN THE IMAGES.
You cannot use the device on naturally dark skin.
You cannot use the device if you have particularly light, white, or grey hair
The device works best on dark hair types or on hair with a high melanin content. Black and dark brown hair shows the best response and, although brown and light brown hair will also respond to the treatment, it usually requires more hair removal sessions.
Red hair could produce a reaction.
White, grey, or blond hair does not usually respond to the device, although some users have noticed results after multiple hair removal sessions.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?
The typical hair growth cycle takes 18-24 months. The hair growth cycle period is slightly different for each person and each body area. Areas like the underarms, lower legs, and bikini line may have a longer hair growth cycle period.
IPL hair removal may take weeks or months to show results, depending on the treated area, skin type, and condition.
IPL treatment is only able to target hairs in the growing phase (please refer to the “hair growth cycle” image).
Multiple IPL treatments are therefore needed in the first 4 months to deactivate all hair roots. To fully deactivate hair roots, six sessions are recommended: the first three at two-week intervals, followed by three at four-week intervals.
You can customize your treatment plan with the "beurer myIPL" app.
Note that complete hair removal may take 18-24 months, after which maintenance treatments are recommended. If hair growth slows or stops, switch to maintenance sessions. For hair-free skin by summer, plan to maintain treatments, ideally in winter.
NB: Permanent hair removal with IPL devices therefore requires at least one full hair growth cycle of 18-24 months.
WARNINGS:
