BaByliss Homelight Manuel D'utilisation page 57

12. I've heard that some hair grows back lighter and finer after photo-epilation. Is this true?
This phenomenon is well documented by beauticians and doctors who use laser or pulsed light appliances for
depilation treatments. It is possible that some hair grows back lighter and finer after an Homelight epilator session.
Generally, this hair only represents an tiny part of the original hair growth, treatments should therefore be continued
to achieve the desired result.
13. Is long-term use of the Homelight epilator dangerous for my skin?
Over the last 15 years, the use of laser and of the pulsed light in aesthetic medicine has been well documented in
professional journals. These journals and institutions have not reported any side effects or injuries connected with long-
term use of laser or pulsed light appliances.
14. Can I use the Homelight epilator to eliminate hair from my chin or face?
The BaByliss Homelight epilator may NOT be used to treat facial hair. You must avoid exposure to the sun before
and after treatment with the BaByliss Homelight epilator regardless of the part of the body that has been treated.
You should use appropriate protection, like clothes that cover the areas or a sun cream (the factor of which is higher
than 50) which should be used regularly 3 weeks before and after the treatment.
15. How much time should I wait before using the Homelight epilator if I was not protected from the sun?
You should wait 4 weeks before using the Homelight epilator if you were exposed to the sun without protection. If
you are in any doubt regarding exposure to the sun, consult your doctor or contact the BaByliss customer service.
16. What should I do before I use the Homelight epilator?
Before each session with the Homelight epilator, it is important that the area to be treated has not been exposed
to the sun for at least four weeks. A sun screen with a high protection factor (protection factor of 50+) could be
some help, as well as clothes that cover the area to be treated. Moreover, the area to be treated should be washed
with soap and water beforehand and then shaved clean of hair.
17. How do I take care of the treated area after using the Homelight epilator ?
The area treated with the Homelight epilator may be cleaned and cared for with well-known skin care products.
Specific precautions should be taken to avoid unprotected exposure to the sun. Sun screens with a higher protection
factor (protection factor of 50+) and long clothing are good protection against the sun.
18. Should I remove hair before, between and after treatments?
No, do not remove hair before, during or after treatments. The hair will fall out on its own naturally and gradually.
This stage may last up to two weeks.
