Haematoma
In very rare cases, using the beurer Velvet Skin Pro can result in blue/violet haematoma that may last
five to ten days. Once the haematoma fades, rusty brown discolouration of the skin (hyperpigmentation)
can occur, which may be permanent.

STEP 7: What can be expected from treatment using the beurer Velvet Skin Pro?

For many users, the beurer Velvet Skin Pro may be the first experience they have with a light-based
device developed for use at home. The beurer Velvet Skin Pro is simple to use and hair removal sessi-
ons do not take long. During a session with the beurer Velvet Skin Pro, it is normal to experience and
notice the following:
• Whirring of the fan – The cooling fan in the beurer Velvet Skin Pro makes a noise similar to a hair
dryer. This is normal.
• Cracking noise with every pulse – When a pulse is triggered from the beurer Velvet Skin Pro, it is
normal to hear a kind of cracking noise at the same time as the flash of light.
• Slight impression of the light opening – This is necessary and helpful for the placement of adjacent
light pulses and is part of the beurer Velvet Skin Pro's safety function.
• Feeling of warmth and prickling sensation – During each light pulse, it is normal to feel a slight
warmth and prickling sensation from the light energy. Remember that it is important to always use
low energy levels for the first hair removal sessions. You may feel a certain warmth up to an hour after
using the beurer Velvet Skin Pro.
• Slight reddening of the skin – During or directly after your session with the beurer Velvet Skin Pro,
it is not unusual to experience a slight reddening of the skin. This is usually most visible around the
hairs themselves. However, if you notice complete reddening of the skin, blistering or burns, stop
using the beurer Velvet Skin Pro immediately.
