9.1. What to Expect when treating with Silk'n Glide™?
For many people, using Silk'n Glide™ may be their first experience with a light-based device designed for
home use. Silk'n Glide™ is simple to use, and hair removal sessions go by quickly. During a Silk'n Glide™
session it is normal to experience and feel:
A Fan Noise – The cooling fan in Silk'n Glide™ makes noise similar to a hairdryer. This is normal.
A Pop Sound with Each Pulse – When a pulse of HPL™ light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop
sound simultaneously with the flash of light.
A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling – During each pulse of light it is normal to feel a mild sensation of
warmth and tingling from the light energy.
Some Mild Red or Pink Color – During and just after your Silk'n Glide™ session it is not uncommon to
see some very mild, pink-like color of the skin. This is usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.
However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns stop use of Silk'n Glide™ immediately.
9.2. After treating with Silk'n Glide™
1. When Glide™ session has been completed turn Glide™ off by giving the CENTRAL BUTTON an extended
press. Be sure to remember the last energy level setting you used, as it will not be restored when turning
Glide™ on again.
2. Unplug the ADAPTOR cord from the electrical outlet.
3. After each hair removal session it is recommended that you clean your Silk'n Glide™ device, especially the
TREATMENT SURFACE (See: "Cleaning Silk'n Glide™").
4. After cleaning, it is recommended to store your Silk'n Glide™ device in its original box, and keep it away
from water.
Skin care following hair removal session
Do not expose areas of skin treated in energy levels 2-5 to the sun. Be sure to carefully
protect the treated skin with sunscreen, throughout the hair removal period and for at
least 2 weeks following the last Silk'n Glide™ session.
