8. Possible Side Effects using SensEpil™ by beurer
When used according to the instructions, side effects and complications associated with use of SensEpil™ by beurer are
uncommon. However every cosmetic procedure, including those designed for home use, involves some degree of risk. Therefore
it is important that you understand and accept the risks and complications that can occur with pulsed light hair removal systems
designed for home use.
Minor Skin Discomfort
Although home pulsed light hair removal is generally very well-tolerated, most users do feel some mild discomfort during
use, usually described as being a mild stinging sensation on the treated skin areas. The stinging sensation usually lasts during
the time of the application itself or for a few minutes thereafter. Anything beyond this minor discomfort is abnormal and
means that either you should not continue to use SensEpil™ by beurer because you are unable to tolerate the hair removal
application, or that the energy level setting is too high.
Skin Redness
Your skin may become red right after using SensEpil™ by beurer or within 24 hours of using SensEpil™ by beurer. Redness
generally clears up within 24 hours. See your doctor if redness does not go away within 2 to 3 days.
Increased Sensitivity of the Skin
The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you may encounter dryness or fl aking of the skin.
Skin Wounds and Burns
Very rarely, burns or wounds to the skin can occur following the application. The burn or wound can require a few weeks to
heal and, extremely rarely, may leave a noticeable permanent scar.
Scarring
Although very rare, permanent scarring may occur. Usually when scarring occurs, it is in the form of a fl at and white lesion
on the skin (hypotrophic).
However, it can be large and red (hypertrophic) or large and extend beyond the margins of the injury itself (keloid).
Subsequent aesthetic treatments may be required to improve the appearance of the scar.
Pigment Changes
SensEpil™ by beurer targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented cells in the hair follicle and the hair follicle itself.
Nevertheless there is risk of temporary hyperpigmentation (increased pigment or brown discoloration) or hypopigmentation
(whitening) to the surrounding skin. This risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher for people with darker skin tones. Usually
discoloration or changes to skin pigment are temporary and permanent hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation rarely occur.
