Braun Silk·épil EverSoft has been
designed to make the removal of un-
wanted hair as efficient, gentle and
easy as possible. Its proven epilation
system removes your hair at the root,
leaving your skin smooth for weeks.
The high-precision epilation head
with its unique arrangement of
1
tweezers and the integrated feed-in
geometry ensures an efficient epila-
tion and removes even hair as short
as 0.5 mm at the root. As the hair
that re-grows is fine and soft, there
will be no more stubble.

General information on epilation
Silk·épil is designed to remove hair
on legs, but it can also be used on all
sensitive areas like forearms, the
underarm or the bikini line.
All methods of hair removal at the
root can lead to in-growing hair and
irritation (e.g. itching, discomfort or
reddening of the skin), depending on
the condition of the skin and hair.
This is a normal reaction and should
quickly disappear, but may be
stronger when you are removing hair
at the root for the first few times or if
you have sensitive skin.
If, after 36 hours, the skin still shows
irritation, we recommend that you
contact your physician.
In general, the skin reaction and the
sensation of pain tend to diminish
considerably with the repeated use
of Silk·épil.
In some cases inflammation of the
skin could occur when bacteria
penetrate the skin (e.g. when sliding
the appliance over the skin).
Thorough cleaning of the epilation
head before each use will minimise
the risk of infection.
