THE COLOUR OF YOUR SKIN
The appliance removes unwanted hair and selectively affects the hair pigment. Various amounts of pigment (melanin) are also found in the surrounding skin tissue. The amount of pigment in the skin, which affects the skin tone, determines the risk posed to the skin when any type of pulsed light epilation is used.
Compare your complexion with the skin tone range (A) provided in this manual and/or on the package of the product before using the appliance.
EN
NATURALLY DARK SKIN
DO NOT use the appliance on naturally dark skin!
Using the appliance on dark skin can cause adverse effects such as burns, blisters and changes in the colour of the skin (hyper or hypo-pigmentation).
SKIN COLOUR SENSOR
The appliance has a skin colour sensor (5B) that measures the tone of the skin in the area that is to be treated at the beginning of each session and occasionally during the session. The skin colour sensor (5B) ensures that pulses are only emitted on suitable skin tones.
TANNED SKIN
DO NOT use the appliance on tanned skin or after recent exposure to the sun and/or tanning beds! Such use can cause serious burns, wounds, blisters and changes in the colour of the skin (hyper or hypo-pigmentation).
Tanned skin, especially after sun exposure, contains large amounts of melanin. This applies to all types of skin and complexions, including those that do not seem to tan quickly. The presence of large amounts of melanin, expose the skin to greater risk when light epilation methods are used.
EN
Avoid exposure to the sun and/or tanning beds for 4 weeks before using the appliance!
THE EYES
NEVER USE the appliance around or near the eyes.
The appliance can be used to remove hair in a delimited part of the face. Special care must be taken to avoid the eyes when treating this area.
Keep away from the eyes!
Do not use the appliance your nipples or genital organs (male or female).
OTHER PRECAUTIONS FOR SAFE USE
BEFORE THE TREATMENT
THE POWER LEVEL
Select the power level CAREFULLY!
The power level refers to the intensity of the pulse of light that is projected on the skin and ranges from the lowest to the highest. The power level LEDs
EN
(12) indicate the set power level. When the power level increases, the results improve, however, the risk of side effects also increases (refer to "Possible side effects").
Always start the treatment at the lowest power level!
Only if you feel a little or no discomfort with the power level set to the lowest, can you increase the power by one level at the next session, and so on for each subsequent hair removal session. For detailed instructions regarding the power level, refer to "Power Level" in "Information before use".
• Always shave the area that is to be treated and make sure the skin is clean and dry before using the appliance.
• Cover any birthmark and tattoos before using the appliance.
• Cover dark brown or black spots, such as large freckles, a birthmark,
moles or warts before using the appliance.
- Never use flammable liquid, such as alcohol, products containing alcohol (including perfume, sanitary products, etc.) or acetone to clean the skin before using the appliance.
- Do not use the appliance on any part of the body where you may wish hair to grow eventually.
THE PATCH TEST
It is recommended to perform a patch test before starting treatment, in order to identify the maximum tolerance of your skin to light pulses. Refer to
EN
"Information before use" for instructions regarding the patch test.
DURING TREATMENT
Do not treat the same section of skin more than once per hair removal session! Do not overlap the pulses!
- STOP USING THE APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY if blisters form or the skin burns.
- Always make sure that the treatment surface (5A or 15A) is pointed towards the skin and is entirely in contact with it.
- Remove the treatment surface (5A or 15A) from the skin if either (5A or 15A) becomes excessively hot.
AFTER TREATMENT
Do not expose the skin to the sun and/or tanning beds after treatment.
In case of exposure to the sun during the two weeks following a treatment session, protect the treated skin with sun cream SPF 30 or higher.
ATTENTION: treatment may cause a temporary change in pigmentation (refer to "Possible side effects").
EN
POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
Side effects and complications associated with the appliance are rare when used according to the instructions.
However, any cosmetic procedure, including those intended for home use, pose a potential risk. It is therefore important to understand and acknowledge the risks and complications that may occur when using pulsed light epilation systems designed for home use.
| Negative Event | Probability of the Negative Event | Negative Effect | Probability of the Negative Effect |
| Accumulated multiple pulses or overlapping on the same section of skin. | Minimum | Minimal Discomfort to the Skin Minimum | |
| Rashness on the Skin Minimum | |||
| Greater Skin Sensitivity Minimum | |||
| Wounds and burns Rare | |||
| Soars Rare | |||
| Changes in Pigmentation Rare | |||
| Excessive Swelling and Redness | Rare | ||
| Infection Negligible | |||
| Bruising Negligible | |||
EN
Minimal Discomfort to the Skin
Despite home use pulsed light epilation is generally very well tolerated, most users experience mild discomfort during use, which is usually described as a slight feeling of warmth or tingling in the treated sections. This feeling can be felt during the treatment or a few seconds after.
Any other discomfort is not normal and treatment must be stopped because your skin does not tolerate the hair removal treatment or the power level setting is too high.
Redness on the Skin
The skin may become red immediately after using the appliance or within the subsequent 24 hours. The redness usually disappears within 24 hours. Consult your doctor is the redness does not disappear within 2 or 3 days.
Greater Skin Sensitivity
The treated skin becomes more sensitive and may become dry or flaky.
Wounds and Burns on the Skin
Very rarely, burns or wounds may appear after the treatment. Burns or wounds can take several weeks to heal and very rarely, may leave a visible permanent scar.
Scars
Even though it is very rare, permanent scarring may occur. Generally, when scars are formed, they appear flat and white (hypotrophic).
However, the scar may also be big and red (hypertrophic) or big and beyond the wound itself (keloid). Subsequent aesthetic treatment may be required to improve the appearance of the scar.
EN
Changes in Pigmentation
In some rare cases, there lies the risk of temporary hyperpigmentation (increased pigment or brown discolouration) or hypopigmentation (whitening) in the skin surrounding the hair. The risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher in persons who have a dark skin tone. Generally, discolouration or changes in the skin pigment are temporary, and permanent hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation is rare.
Excessive Swelling and Redness
In some rare cases, the skin may become very red and swollen. This is more common in sensitive parts of the body. The redness and swelling should lessen in the following 2 to 7 days and ice must be applied often. The area can be cleaned gently, however, avoid exposure to sun.
Infection
Skin infection is very rare, however, it may still occur following a burn or wound caused by the appliance.
Bruising
Very rarely, blue-purple bruising may be caused after using the appliance and may last fro 5 to 10 days. As the bruise fades, rust-brown skin discolouration may occur (hyperpigmentation), which may be permanent.
Please consult your doctor or dermatologist in the case of side effects or complications.
EN
DESCRIPTION OF THE APPLIANCE AND ACCESSORIES
Home use pulsed light appliance, based on HPL technology (Home Pulsed Light) to permanently reduce unwanted hair. Permanent hair reduction means long-term reduction in the amount of hairs that grow after a course of treatment.
The appliance emits a light pulse that is absorbed by the pigment in the hair. The light beam is conveyed to the hair follicle, thereby generating heat that can disable it.

TREATMENT AREAS
The appliance can be used to remove unwanted body hair in the following areas:
underarms, bikini line, arms, legs, back and chest.
Women can also use it in the part indicated by the white dashed line.
It is important to only treat the facial areas where there is visible thick and dark superfluous hair. Areas with thin fair hair, often on and under the chin, must not be treated.
EN
HAIR REMOVAL PROGRAM
A typical cycle of hair growth can take 18 to 24 months. During this time, more sessions may be required to achieve permanent hair removal.
Hair removal efficacy varies from person to person and in different body parts, according to the hair colour and level of tolerance of one's own skin.
Recommended treatment plan in a complete hair growth cycle:
• Session 1 to 4: perform the sessions two weeks apart.
• Session 5 to 7: perform the sessions four weeks apart.
- The subsequent maintenance sessions can be performed from time to time, when and if necessary, until long-lasting results are achieved.
Note:
The hair removal results will not be enhanced if the same part of the body is treated more often than recommended (every two weeks).
Dormant hair follicles can be reactivated due to hormonal and physiological changes. Therefore, occasional hair removal sessions may be required.
The individual reaction depends on the type of hair and biological factors that may affect the growth cycle of hair. Some people can react quicker or slower with regards to the recommended hair removal plan.
In any case, a long-lasting result cannot be expected with only one or two sessions.
EN
NOTE
The appliance is not effective on very light hair.
The appliance is not effective on natural white, grey, light blonde and red hair. If your body hair is either of these colours, the appliance will not be effective.
INFORMATION BEFORE USE
POWER LEVEL
The appliance can be set to 5 power levels; 1 (lowest) to 5 (highest), indicated by 3 power level LEDs (12).
“+” to increase the power level.
“-” to decrease the power level.
The power level LEDs (12) light up as follows according to the set power level:
Level 1 (lowest) - the left LED remains constantly on.
Level 2 - the left LED remains constantly on and the middle LED flashes.
Level 3 - the left LED and the middle LED remain constantly on.
Level 4 - the left LED and middle LED remain constantly on and the right LED
flashes.
Level 5 (highest) - all three LEDs remain constantly on.
EN
ATTENTION
It is recommended to always start the first hair removal session by setting the lowest power level (level 1).
If you feel no discomfort during the hair removal session with the power level set to the lowest, you can increase the power to level 2 at the next session, and so on for each subsequent session.
Do not increase the power level if you feel an abnormal discomfort during or after the treatment! (See "Possible side effects").
Do not increase the power level during a hair removal session, even if no discomfort is felt: side effects can also arise some time after the session.
SKIN COLOUR SENSOR (5B)
Using the pulsed light epilation system on dark skin can cause adverse effects such as burns, blisters and changes in the colour of the skin (hyper or hypopigmentation).
The appliance has a skin colour sensor (5B) that measures the tone of the skin in the area that is to be treated at the beginning of each session and occasionally during the session.
If the skin colour sensor (5B) detects a complexion that is too dark for the treatment, the appliance stops emitting the light pulses automatically and the skin colour check LEDs (6A) start to flash.
If this occurs, try to use the appliance on another part of the body or contact the IMETEC service centre.
EN
COVERING THE ENTIRE TREATMENT AREA
A precise technique must be followed during the session to make sure the entire treatment area is covered and dangerous overlapped pulses are prevented:
• Imagine the treatment area is divided in rows.
- Emit a light pulse proceeding in order, starting from one end of each row and continuing to the other end (from the bottom upwards or right to left, depending on the treatment area).
The area covered by the treatment surface (5A or 15A) leaves temporary marks on the skin due to the light pressure applied by the handpiece.
These marks remain visible for a few moments and are useful to establish the subsequent pulse position.
ATTENTION
Do not overlap the pulses!
Do not treat the same section of skin more than once per hair removal session! STOP USING THE APPLIANCE IMMEDIATELY if excessive heat or tingling is felt or blisters or small burns appear on the skin!
HOW TO PERFORM THE PATCH TEST
Since the skin tone and sensitivity varies from one body part to another, a patch test should be performed on each part of the body that is to be treated.
- First check the tone of your skin by comparing it to the table on the package and in the instruction manual.
EN
• Identify a small area that is to be treated.
• Shave the area that is to be treated.
- After having set the lowest power level, apply the handpiece to the area and emit the first pulse. If no discomfort is felt, increase the power to the next level, move the handpiece to the adjacent skin area and emit another pulse. Increase the power level on each subsequent area of skin until the maximum tolerable level for the skin type. A feeling of heat can be felt on the skin during the treatment, and this is normal. If discomfort is felt, the maximum tolerable power level is the previous one.
- Check the area after 24 hours: if the redness persists, the maximum tolerable power level for your skin type is the previous one.
Even though it is extremely rare, if hypersensitivity should persist for over hours, it is recommended to consult a doctor.
ATTENTION: the power output directly affects the result, however, due to the principle of heat of the treatment, the maximum limit tolerated by your skin must not be exceeded. This limit is normally high for fair skin and low for dark skin because melanin that darkens the skin increases the production of heat. Do not exceed the maximum limit that your skin tolerates with no discomfort whatsoever.
PREPARING THE AREAS THAT ARE TO BE TREATED
- The skin must be shaved, clean, dry, with no make-up, anti-perspirant or deodorant.
- Moles, birthmarks, dark spots, tattoos and lips must be covered with a white pencil or white patches.
EN
ATTENTION:
Before starting the treatment, read the paragraphs relative to safety warnings, contraindications, precautions for safe use, possible side effects, treatment areas and hair removal program.
USE
PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
- Remove the handpiece and the other components from the package.
- Verify that the lamp (5 or 15) is inserted correctly into the appliance.
- If the appliance is stored in a very cold place, wait for it to reach at least
15°C
- If the plug has not been inserted into the adaptor (14), hold the latter, pull the "Open" key downwards and insert the plug (14A, 14B or 14C), which is suitable for the socket of the electrical system, into the relative slot.
- Insert the adaptor cable (14) into the power supply connection (4).
- Insert the adaptor (14) in a socket: the stand-by LED lights up (9).
TREATMENT
- Press the switch-on/stand-by button (10): the switch-on LED (11) lights up and the ventilation system is activated (the noise is similar to that of a hair dryer).
- About 3.5 seconds after having pressed the switch-on/stand-by button (10), the switch-on LED (11) lights up: the appliance is automatically set to the lowest power level.
EN
- Set the lowest power level when applying the first treatment. Follow the instructions in the "Information before use" chapter if you wish to use a different power level for follow-up sessions.
- Apply the treatment surface (5A or 15A) firmly on the skin. Only when the treatment surface (5A or 15A) is entirely in contact with the skin, the ready-for-use LEDs (6A) start to flash.
- Press the pulse activation button (3). The appliance immediately verifies the skin colour: if the skin colour is fair enough for a safe application, the appliance emits the light pulse on the skin together with a sound and the ready-for-use LEDs (6) go off. A slight tingling sensation may be felt. Note: if the appliance does not emit a light pulse and the skin colour check LEDs (6A) flash, the skin tone is too dark for a safe application. Try to use the appliance on another part of the body.
- Remove the treatment surface (5A or 15A) from the treated area.
- 3.5 seconds after the previous pulse is emitted, the ready-for-use LEDs (6) light up again.
- Move the treatment surface (5A or 15A) to another section. Use the pressure marks left previously to place the treatment surface on the adjacent section, providing developed space (One if covering the entire treatment area).
- Repeat the process, starting from point 10, until the entire area to be treated is covered.
AFTER TREATMENT
- Press the switch-on/stand-by button (10): all the LEDs that are on, go off and the stand-by LED lights up (9).
- Remember the power level used for the treatment session as this will be reset when the appliance is next switched on.
EN
- Disconnect the adapter cable (14) from the socket.
Caring for the skin after the hair removal session.
See "Other precautions for safe use".
TREATMENT WITH THE PRECISION LAMP
If you wish to use the precision lamp (15) for smaller areas or where more precision is required, proceed as follows:
- Before applying the precision lamp (15), emit a light pulse in the area that is to be treated with the standard lamp (5), following the user instructions from 7 to 12. This will allow the skin colour sensor (5B) to verify the tone of the skin that is to be treated and prevent the pulse from being emitted if it is too dark.
- Press the switch-on/stand-by button (10) after emitting a pulse: the switch-on LED (11) goes off and the standby LED (9) goes on.
- Remove the lamp (5) from the handpiece by grasping and pulling it gently upwards to release it.
- Insert the precision lamp (15) into the handpiece by pressing gently.
- Follow the user instructions from point 7 to point 18, being careful not to go over the area previously covered by the emitted pulse of the standard lamp (5).
- The procedure must be repeated every time the power cord (14) is disconnected from the socket.
EN
MAINTENANCE
CLEANING AND STORING
It is recommended to clean the appliance and the treatment surface (5A or 15A) after each hair removal session:
- Disconnect the appliance from the adaptor (14) before cleaning it.
