Troubleshooting; Problems Encountered - BaByliss Homelight Manuel D'utilisation

• Change to pigmentation: Homelight® targets the root of the hair,
specifically the pigmented cells in the bulb. However, there is a
risk of temporary hyperpigmentation (increased pigmentation or
brown discolouration) or hypopigmentation (whitening) or the
surrounding skin. People with darker skin are more at risk of changes
to pigmentation. In most cases, any changes to pigmentation
and discolouration of the skin are temporary. Permanent
hyperpigmentation and permanent hypopigmentation are rare.
• Excessive redness and inflammation/swelling: in some rare cases,
skin treated with Homelight® can become very red and swollen. This
reaction is more common in sensitive areas of the body. Redness and
swelling should disappear within 2 to 7 days of regular application of
ice. Gentle cleaning is no problem, but you should avoid exposure to
sunlight.
• Infection: a skin infection is extremely rare but can occur after a burn
or skin injury caused by Homelight®.
• Bruising: very rarely, using Homelight® can cause bluish-purple
bruising which can last for 5 to 10 days. As the blue fades, the skin
can take on a rusty colour (hyperpigmentation) which may be
permanent.
Speak to your doctor if discomfort persists or bothers you during or
after treatment with Homelight®.
