Frequently Asked Questions - IP1100 SOLAC

How does Solac IP1100 hair removal work?

It uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology. The light is absorbed by melanin in the hair, generating heat that damages the hair follicle, reducing growth.

Who can use this device?

Women and men aged 18+ with skin types I to IV (Fitzpatrick scale). Not for naturally dark skin (type V/VI) or tanned skin, as it may cause burns.

How often should I treat?

Body hair: every 2 weeks for first 4 treatments, then every 4 weeks. Facial hair: every 2 weeks for first 5 treatments, then every 4 weeks. Maintenance as needed.

Can I use it on my face?

Yes, only below the cheek line (upper lip, chin, jaw, cheeks, neck). Never around eyes or eyebrows due to risk of eye injury. Use energy level 1-2 only.

Why does the device not flash?

Common causes: treatment window not in full contact with skin, skin is too dark or tanned, or an error. Ensure skin is clean, dry, and shaved, and that the sensor is not blocked.

How should I prepare my skin?

Shave the area, then clean and dry skin thoroughly. Avoid alcohol, perfumes, or acetone one hour before use. Do not wax or pluck between treatments.

Is it safe?

Yes, with built-in skin tone sensor and full contact detection. However, avoid use on moles, tattoos, damaged skin, or while pregnant. Always perform a patch test 48 hours prior.

NOTAS:

ECOLOGÍA Y RECICLAJE DEL PRODUCTO

epil Min is apersonal use device intended for the removal of unwanted hair.

RPL™ (REACTIVE PULSED LIGHT) -HOW DOES IT WORK?

It is based on the scientific principle of selective photothermolysis, RPL™ (Reactive Pulsed Light) advanced technology uses clinically proven IPL technology along with a combination of unique skin condition sensors. The light penetrates the epidermis to the dermis and is absorbed by the melanin in the hair shaft. The heat is generated by the absorbed light then dissipates into the follicle and generates local thermal damage, causing a reduction in hair growth.

LONG-TERM HAIR REDUCTION – HAIR GROWTH CYCLE

Two factors play an important role in optimal long-term hair reduction:

- Hair growth cycle involves three phases: Anagen, Catagen, and Telogen. Anagen is the growth phase, while Catagen and Telogen are the resting phases. Permanent hair reduction can only occur during the Anagen phase.

EN

Skin types (according to the Fitzpatrick scale) are illustrated in the diagram at the back cover. Darker skin contains more melanin, which competes with the targeted hair for light energy absorption. When more light energy is absorbed into the skin, there is a greater risk for adverse effects and the epidermis may be damaged.

WHO SHOULD USE EPIL MINI

• It is intended for women and men who desire to remove unwanted hair.
• It is intended for use on legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, back, shoulders, chest, and allowed facial areas.
• It is intended for use on skin tone types 1 to 5 according to Fitzpatrick skin chart below (see also colored chart at the back cover of this User Guide).

The use on naturally dark skin is forbidden.

- It works best on dark hair or hair that contains more melanin. Brown and light brown hair will respond, but typically will require more treatment sessions. Red hair may show some response. Naturally white, grey or blond hair shows more limited response. Nevertheless, some users have noted hair reduction after multiple treatment sessions.

NOTE: this IPL device is designed for use by a single user.

BENEFITS

epil Mini features an automatic built-in skin color sensor that is designed to provide you with complete safety and reassurance. The sensor constantly evaluates your skin tone and allows it to perform only on suitable areas. This smart safety feature also automatically disables the treatment if your skin is too dark or too tanned.

As an extra precaution, the applicator tip has been designed to only emit light pulses when it is in full contact with your skin. Response to epil Mini hair removal differs between individuals, depending on biological factors and how closely treatment instructions are followed. Based on the treatment regime in this User Guide you should expect to see some improvement in 3-4 weeks.

Hair will continue to grow, up to two weeks after a hair reduction session. However, afterwards, as the hair grows in three different stages, the hairs will naturally and gradually fall out depending on the hair growth stage in during which the treatment was performed. Some hair may not be affected by epil Mini as of the different hair growth phases-only hairs in the active growth phase will be affected. For permanent hair removal you should follow the treatment regime.

INSTRUCTIONS

espilsense Mini is intended for use on legs, arms, underarms, bikini line, back, shoulders, chest, and on allowed facial areas.

DEVICE SET-UP

1. Remove all components from the box (handheld device and power supply).
2. Before beginning the treatment, make sure the device is clean, dry, and intact.
3. Plug the power supply end into electrical outlet and the cord end into the device socket (see image - item 6).
   The device is now ready for use.

HOW TO PREPARE YOURSELF

1. Prior to use, make sure your skin is shaved, clean and dry (free of any residues of powders, creams, makeup, antiperspirants or deodorants).
2. Between treatments, you can shave but don't wax or pluck hair.
3. Never use flammable liquids such as alcohol (including perfumes, sanitizers or other applications containing alcohol) or acetone to clean the skin one hour before using epil Mini as it may cause burning of the skin.

REMEMBER: epil Mini comes with a built-in skin-tone sensor, enabling the application only on a suitable skin tone range. This unique safety feature will not let you treat areas where your skin is too dark or too tanned, even if your general skin type is lighter.

1. For the device maintenance and prolonged use, device cleaning is a must (Cleaning chapter).
2. Perform a preliminary test on a small patch of the skin (preferably on the intended treatment area) 48 hours prior to first use of epil Mini, to determine energy level settings for your treatment (as depicted in the preliminary test section).
3. Do not use epil Mini on the face above the cheek line: around eyes, eyebrows, or eyelashes as this could cause serious eye damage.
4. epil Mini is suitable for men. However, male body hair, especially those on the chest, will require more hair reduction sessions.

PRELIMINARY TEST

The preliminary test is intended to determine your skin's reaction to epil Mini treatment and to help you set the optimal energy level for each treatment area.

Performa preliminary test on each area you intend to treat 48 hours prior to the full treatment.

NOTE: Do not treat full areas with energy levels that you have not tested before!

• Do not treat the tested area for at least 1 week after the preliminary test is done.
• Select the lowest energy level and deliver a pulse on the selected preliminary test skin area.
• If you feel comfortable with the energy level, increase it to level 2 and perform an additional pulse on the next spot.
• Only if you feel comfortable, you may reach to the maximum energy level 3.
• Stop the test once you do not feel comfortable, as increasing the energy level increases the risk of adverse effects.
• If you see adverse effects such as severe redness or blistering stop the test immediately.
• Wait 48 hours and examine the tested area.

If the skin in the tested area seems normal (no response or mild redness), you can proceed with a full treatment in the highest comfortable energy level that you have tested. If you see extreme redness, swelling, or blis-

tering even in the low-energy level settings, do not do the full treatment in that area.

HOW TO USE EPIL MINI DEVICE

NOTE: A preliminary test should be conducted before proceeding to a full treatment. See "preliminary test section" above.

1. To turn the device on, press the ON/OFF-button (see image – item 1). Energy level 1 green indicator will light up.
2. The device sets itself on the lowest energy level - level 1. For other energy levels press the energy level selection button (see image - Item 1).
3. You may decrease or increase the energy level according to your convenience (to reach the level determined in the preliminary test section). The energy level lights (see image – item 4) will light up green on the level scale according to the selected energy level.
4. Place the device treatment window (see Image - Item 7) on the desired body area with full contact to the skin. If the device is not properly applied or your skin tone is too dark/tanned, the indicator will be "blinking" red. In this case, the device will not trigger a pulse in that area of your skin.

1. Press the trigger button (see image – item 2) and hold it pressed for continuous pulsing.
2. Press the trigger button once for single pulse.
3. While pressing the trigger button, you will see a bright flash, you will hear a popping noise and you may feel a mild stinging and/or heat sensation.
4. Keep the trigger button pressed and start moving the device with each pulse to the next spot without detaching it from the skin. The device will immediately recharge and will be ready for the next pulse. Repeat process until the entire treatment area has been covered.
5. After the treatment, turn off the device by pressing the "ON/OFF" button for 3 seconds; asteadyorange indicator will light up, while the device is in the shutdown mode. Unplug the unit after each treatment session.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• Try not to overlap pulses on the same spot. Repeated pulses on the same spot may cause burns.
• Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per treatment as it may cause skin irritation.
  • The device will not trigger a pulse if:

a. There is no full contact of the treatment window with the body skin.
b. Your skin tone is too dark or tanned.

ding on the hair growth stage in during which the treatment was performed. Some hair may not be affected by the device as of the different hair growth phases- only hairs in the active growth phase will be affected. To remove this hair multiple treatment sessions are required to achieve the desired results.

1. The number of sessions required for achieving long term results is different for every treatment area and changes-for every user, as it is affected by type of skin, hair and hormonal changes.
2. Maintenance will be needed from time to time if growth is still visible.
3. You may use the treatment log at the end of this User Guide, in order to assist you with recording your specific treatments areas, dates and duration.

FACIAL TREATMENT

The Facial skin is a sensitive area that requires special care and caution. Make sure you follow all instructions and safety precautions carefully in order to avoid adverse effects.

It is recommended you first do a body treatment and get to know the device, before moving on to facial treatments.

This device can be used to treat all facial areas below the cheek line such as upper lip, cheek, jaw, chin and neck.

WARNINGS!

• Do not use energy level higher than level 2 since it may cause burns.

• Do not use this device on the face above the cheek line or around the eyes, eyebrows and eyelashes as this could cause serious eye damage.

• Mark the treatment area with a white eye pencil. Use the mark as guidance for delivering the pluses. This way you can avoid overlapping treatment areas or treating unwanted facial areas.

• Use a mirror to help you place the treatment window correctly on the treatment area.
• Follow the instructions for use with additional care to the following specific area instructions.

NOTE: Facial hair may be hormonal and as such, it can take more sessions to achieve a permanent hair reduction.

Upper lip, cheek, jaw, neck and chintreatment

Place the treatment window on the area as indicated in the picture. Trigger one pulse on each spot.

- Upper lip: Avoid the nostrils and lip, as these areas are more sensitive.

You can "fold" your lip inward or press the lips together to achieve a better spread treatment area.

Cheekand jaw: Place the treatment window on the area as indicated in the picture. Trigger one pulse on each spot, moving from one side of the jaw/cheek to the other.

Neck and chin: Place the treatment window on the area as indicated in the picture. Trigger one pulse on each spot, moving from one side of the neck/chin to the other.

NOTE: The skin on lower third of the neck is more sensitive. Avoid from overlapping treatment areas.

For male users

Take care while treating the beard area; the density of hair growth means a large amount of melanin which absorbs the heat. It is recommended performing the first treatment in low energy levels (1-2).

It is not recommended to do a full beard reduction as it may change the facial characteristics and result in a feminine look.

NOTE: Premature aging characteristics can emerge due to complete loss of facial hair.

WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN USING EPIL MINI

During your hair removal treatment it is normal to experience:

• A flash of light on each press of the activation button. The light will not harm the eyes when the device is applied with full contact to the skin on the recommended treatment areas.
• A pop noise with each pulse – occurs whenever a pulse is activated.
• A sensation of warmth – radiates from the light energy after each pulse.
• A mild stinging sensation –can be felt, similar to being snapped with a rubber band.
• Some mild red or pink color – appears during and just after the treatment.

POST-TREATMENT CARE

• Apply a calming lotion such as Aloe Vera.
• Avoid using peeling and bleaching creams or products for at least 24 hours, as this irritates the treated skin.

• Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 2 weeks post treatment. If recently treated skin is exposed to sunlight in this period of time, make sure to apply SPF 30 or higher sunscreen.

• Do not wax or pluck hairs from treated areas.
  Remember! It may take up to 2 weeks for the hair to grow and be fully out, if the hair follicle is still active.
