notice extreme reddening, swelling or blistering even at a low energy level, do not perform a full treat-
ment on this area.
Note
Do not perform a full treatment with an energy level that you have not tested beforehand!
Do not treat the tested area until at least one week after performing the test.
STEP 3: Plan hair removal using the beurer SalonPro System for the best results
A typical hair growth cycle can last 18 to 24 months. During this time, several sessions using the beurer
SalonPro System may be necessary to achieve lasting hair removal.
The effectiveness of the hair removal differs from person to person and varies depending on the area of
the body and hair colour, as well as on how the beurer SalonPro System is used.
Typical hair removal plan using the beurer SalonPro System over a complete hair growth cycle:
• The first three or four hair removal sessions using the beurer SalonPro System should be performed
around two weeks apart.
• The fifth to seventh hair removal sessions using the beurer SalonPro System should be performed
around four weeks apart. Afterwards, you will use the beurer SalonPro System from time to time as
necessary, until lasting results are achieved.
This corresponds to the recommended treatment plan that has proven to achieve the best results. You
can, however, create a different personal treatment plan and still achieve satisfactory results.
Note
The hair removal results cannot be improved by treating the same part of the body more than once
within two weeks.
Typical aftercare with the beurer SalonPro System after achieving lasting hair removal:
Due to hormonal or other physiological changes, resting hair follicles can become active. For this rea-
son, hair removal sessions for aftertreatment using the beurer SalonPro System may be necessary from
time to time.
STEP 4: Prepare the treatment area
Before the treatment, ensure that the skin is shaved, clean and dry (free from any residue such as pow-
der, cream, make-up, antiperspirant or deodorant).
WARNING
Do not clean the skin with flammable liquids such as alcohol or acetone shortly before using the beu-
rer SalonPro System.
STEP 5: Set the energy intensity level
Energy level
The energy level determines the intensity of the light pulse emitted by the beurer SalonPro System onto
your skin (from the lowest level (-) to the highest level (+)). The corresponding energy indicator lamps on
the base unit indicate the increase in energy level. As the energy level increases, so do the hair removal
results and the risk of possible side effects and complications.
Always start your first hair removal session with the beurer SalonPro System using the lowest energy
level setting. If during and after your first hair removal session using the lowest energy level you notice
slight or no irritation, increase the energy level for the next session by one level and so on for each sub-
sequent session.
