− Do not use the device on the following places/areas:
3
• birthmarks, freckles, dilated veins, darker pigmented areas, scars, skin irregularities
without consulting a doctor. Application to these areas can lead to burns and skin disco-
loration, which could potentially make it more dicult to identify skin diseases.
• warts, tattoos or permanent makeup.
• around or near the eyes and eyebrows.
• on the face, lips, nipples, areolas, small labia, vagina, anus and inside the nose and ears.
• men must not use the device on the face and neck, including all areas where beards grow,
or the entire genital area.

HOW DOES THE EPILATOR WORK?
IPL technology
Epilation is performed using intense pulsed light. The whole process is painless, leaving your
skin smooth for up to several months.
Using IPL technology, the epilator emits gentle pulses of light in the wavelength range of 510
to 1100 nm below the surface of the skin. This targets the melanin in the hair follicle and helps
break the cycle of hair re-growth. Light pulses create heat that warms the hair follicle, destroying
it which leads to the hair falling out.
What can you expect?
After application
You should not see any signicant side eects of the treatment immediately after application.
During the rst weeks of use, hair growth will still be visible. These are probably hairs that were
not in their growth phase during application, when IPL technology is most eective.
6th to 12th week of use
You should already see a reduction in hair growth. However, many hairs will still not have be
treated in their growth phase. It is important to continue weekly treatment.
After 12 weeks of use
Approximately after completing the 12-week plan, you should already notice a signicant re-
duction in hair in the treated area. The remaining hairs should be ner and lighter. Continued
monthly treatment or treatment as needed should keep your skin hairfree.
HOW TO USE THE EPILATOR?
Before using for the rst time
Recommended skin colour
TrueLife IPL epilators work eectively and safely on dierent skin tones. In general, IPL epilators
are not recommended for dark skin and light hair.
To determine if an IPL epilator is right for you, use the Fitzpatrick scale, which distinguishes 6
degrees of skin colour, and determine if an IPL epilator is right for you.
Type I Pale skin, freckles, blond or red hair, blue eyes. Very
sensitive to the sun. It always burns, never tans.
Suitable
Type II Light skin, blond or red hair, blue, green or brown
eyes. Very sensitive to the sun. It usually burns, tans
minimally.
Suitable
Type III Creamy fair skin, any hair and eye colour, common
type. Sun sensitive skin. Sometimes it burns slightly,
tans evenly.
Suitable
Type IV Slightly brown skin, typically the Mediterranean
olive skin tone. It rarely burns, tans well.
Suitable
Type V Dark brown skin, typically Middle Eastern or Latin
American skin tone. It rarely burns, tans very easily.
Suitable but
with caution
Type VI Deeply pigmented dark brown to black skin. It never
burns, it tans very easily.
Unsuitable
Preparing the skin
Before use, make sure that your skin is in good condition without injury. It must also be shaved,
clean and dry (without any residue such as creams, make-up, antiperspirants or deodorants).
Before the rst epilation, we recommend performing a patch test on a small area of skin. Per-
form the test 24 hours before epilation to check for any side eects.
How to test
1. Choose an area of skin close to the area you want to epilate.
2. Switch on the device and select level 1.
3. Place the device on the skin, press the treatment button and the device will emit a ash. Emit
two ashes like this, corresponding to two treatment windows on the surface.
4. Increase the setting by one level and repeat the ashes. Repeat for the other levels until the
ashes are uncomfortable. Once you reach a level that is uncomfortable for you, end the test.
Use the last level, which is pleasant for you, during the subsequent epilation.
5. After the test, wait 24 hours and check for a skin reaction. If the skin looks normal, you can
proceed with the rst epilation. A patch test should be performed on all areas you are going
to treat.
Preparing the device
1. Remove the device and its accessories from the box.
2. Before starting treatment, make sure that the device is clean, dry and undamaged. You can
clean the epilation window.
3. Connect the charging base to an electrical outlet and then the device to the charging base.

4. The device is now ready for use.
Note: Before switching on, make sure that the lamp head is installed correctly.
EPILATION
If the patch test is successful and your skin is prepared, you can start epilating.
1. Press the power button for 3 to 5 seconds to turn on the device.
2. The LED indicator starts ashing blue and white. When the device is ready for use, the indica-
tor lights up white only.

3. On the display you can see: the type of lamp, the number of ashes remaining, the light in-
tensity level, the cooling mode icon, the auto mode icon and the overheating warning icon.
4. Press the level button to set your desired light level (level 1 lowest, level 5 highest), which you
determined during the patch test.
Note: When the device is switched on, the light intensity level is set to level 1 by default.
5. When you have everything ready, touch the skin where you want to epi-
late. As shown in the picture. The indicator lights up blue and the device
is ready to emit light.
Note: The device must be perpendicular to the epilated area.
6. Press the treatment button to emit a ash. The ash should make you feel
warm.
7. Place the device on the next area you want to epilate. After each ash, it takes up to 3 seconds
for the device to be ready for the next ash. You can emit a ash when the blue indicator
lights up again.
8. To ensure complete treatment of all areas, emit ashes close together. Eective light comes
only from the light emitting treatment window, so the treated areas need to overlap. Howe-
ver, always be sure to send the ash to the same area only once. Irradiation of the same area
does not double the eectiveness of the treatment, but increases the risk of skin reactions.
9. When you have nished epilating, hold down the power button for 3 to 5 seconds and the
device will switch o.
10. Disconnect the device from the power supply.
Note: The device may enter overheat protection mode after a long period of operation. The device
cannot be used in this mode until its temperature drops. The device can be used again as soon as the
overheating warning icon disappears.
Note: If redness or burning occurs for several minutes, soothe the skin by applying a coolant or a
cotton pad.
Note: If you notice any discoloration on the skin (such as fading or darkening), stop using the device
immediately and undergo a medical examination to determine the cause.
Modes
The device oers two epilation modes for convenience. In addition to the standard single ash
mode, it is also possible to use automatic mode.
Standard mode
Standard mode is suitable for treating small and hard-to-reach areas. These include the face,
armpits, bikini area, knees, shins and ankles.
Auto mode
Auto mode oers convenient and fast use on larger areas such as feet.
Hold down the level button for 3 seconds. The device switches to automatic mode. Move the
device slowly and smoothly from the bottom to the top of the epilated area. Make sure that the
device is in constant contact with the skin so that it can emit ashes at all times.
Cooling mode
Cooling mode is automatically switched on. During epilation, the skin is cooled at the same time
making the treatment less painful.
If you want to turn o the automatic cooling when epilating, press the cooling mode button.
Pressing the button again to switch it on.
Cooling mode can also be used on it own. Press the cooling mode button for 3-5 seconds. You
can then place the device on the area and slowly slide it to cool the area. To turn o cooling
mode, press the cooling mode button again for 3-5 seconds.
Treatment plan
The hair growth cycle varies from person to person. It ranges around 16 months depending on
which part of the body. Due to the fact that only hairs in the growth phase respond to the epila-
tion, several treatments are needed to achieve permanently smooth skin. For these reasons, we
recommend the following plan.
Initial phase
For the rst 4 to 12 weeks, we recommend epilating once a week.
If hair growth stops before, it is not necessary to continue treatment until the end of week 12. In
this case, you can move on to the next stage.
Maintenance phase
After the initial phase, we recommend treatments every 4 to 8 weeks when you notice hair
growth. This phase helps to preserve the results achieved and maintain smooth skin for many
months. The time between treatments may vary with regard to individual hair growth and also
to each specic area of the body.
