LUMIERE PULSEE

The armpit is a delicate area to remove hair from, because its skin is thin and sensitive (it is common to see red spots in the area after hair removal) and not very accessible to the epilator head. Although it might be easy to guide the epilator on the leg surface, on the armpit it is much more difficult because this is a concave spot and it is sometimes necessary to press the epilator head against the skin for it to be effective.

In the figures below, we show the appropriate movements to achieve armpit hair removal without any inconvenience.

Please remember that the "sensitive areas" accessory which clips on to the epilator head should be used when removing hair from the armpits.

No. The appliance may not be used on the face.

You should undergo treatment every two weeks for four to six sessions (two to three months), then once a month for two to four sessions (depending on regrowth).
Maintenance sessions may then be necessary, based on hair distribution, until hair is completely gone.

Treatment should be performed on shaved skin only, not on epilated skin (no waxing or epilator use – the root must be present).

You cannot treat the same area more than once per week.

It is better to avoid sun exposure and sea bathing immediately after epilating, because the skin is sensitised. And if you are planning to epilate, the same advice applies, do not expose yourself before, so as not to have a too sensitive skin.
