Note: It is normal that the appliance and the body attachment become warm
during use.
4 Slide the appliance over the skin to the next area to be treated
and repeat steps 5 and 6 of section 'First use and skin test' in this
chapter. After each lash, it takes up to 3.5 seconds until the appliance
is ready to lash again. The 'ready to lash' light on the back of the
appliance starts blinking again to indicate that it is charging. Wait until
this light lights up continuously before you continue.
Tip for SC1992: The SC1992 has a 'slide and lash' feature: for a more eficient
treatment, keep the lash button pressed while you slide the appliance over
your skin.
Do not treat exactly the same area multiple times during one session.
This does not improve the effectiveness of the treatment, but increases
the risk of skin reactions.
To avoid untreated areas, make sure the lashes are produced close
5
to each other. Note that effective light only comes out of the light
exit window. However, always make sure you do not lash the same
area twice.
When you have inished the treatment, press and hold the on/off
6
button for 2 seconds to switch off the appliance.
7 Check the light exit window and the body attachment for hairs and
dirt and clean the appliance after use (see chapter 'Cleaning and
maintenance').
Tips

How to achieve optimal results

It is normal that hairs are still visible after the irst few treatments (see
-
chapter 'Introduction', section 'Working principle' for more information).
- To remove all hairs successfully and prevent the hair follicle from
becoming active again, the treatments have to be repeated once every
two weeks for the irst two months. Your skin should be smooth and
hair-free by then. Please read section 'Maintenance phase' to ind out
how you can keep these results.

Maintenance phase

To ensure that your skin stays smooth and hair-free, we advise you
-
to repeat the treatment every four to six weeks. The time between
treatments may vary based on your individual hair regrowth and also
across different body areas. If too many hairs grow back between
treatments, simply shorten the treatment interval again, but do not
treat any area more often than once every two weeks. When you use
the appliance more frequently than recommended, you do not increase
the effectiveness but you do increase the risk of skin reactions.
