After use

Common skin reactions

Your skin may show slight redness and/or may prickle, tingle or feel warm. 
This reaction is absolutely harmless and disappears quickly.
Dry skin and itching may occur due to shaving or a combination of shaving 
and light treatment. You can cool the area with an ice pack or a wet face 
cloth. If dryness persists, you can apply a non-scented moisturizer on the 
treated area.

Rare side effects

-

Burns, excessive redness (e.g. around hair follicles) and swelling: 
these reactions occur rarely. They are the result of using a light 
intensity that is too high for your skin tone. If these reactions do 
not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult a doctor. 
Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely 
and make sure you use a lower light intensity.

-

Skin discoloration: this occurs very rarely. Skin discoloration 
manifests itself as either a darker patch (hyperpigmentation) or a 
lighter patch (hypopigmentation) than the surrounding area. This 
is the result of using a light intensity that is too high for your skin 
tone. If the discoloration does not disappear within 2 weeks, we 
advise you to consult a doctor. Do not treat discolored areas until 
the discoloration has disappeared and your skin has regained its 
normal skin tone.

-

Skin infection is very rare but is a possible risk following a (micro)
wound, a skin burn, skin irritation etc.

-

Epidermal heating (a sharply defined brownish area which often 
occurs with darker skin tones and is not accompanied with skin 
dryness): This reaction occurs very rarely. In case this reaction does 
not disappear within 1 week, we advise you to consult a doctor. 
Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely 
and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
