If you start feeling burning pain or discomfort, adjust the level down or stop using the device.
Possibilities for painful experience with StylishLyf IPL Handset: 1. You have recently been exposed to the sun. We recommend staying out of strong sun exposure for 2 weeks before using our Handset.
2. Your skin tone is darker than the recommended tones. Please check the skin tone chart in your user guide.
3. You are using it at an intensity level that is too high for your skin. We always recommend starting with level 1 intensity to see how your skin reacts, if you had no adverse reactions or discomfort, you can gradually increase the level after each week of sessions. If you feel discomfort go back to a lower intensity.
4. You have not shaved first. We always recommend shaving first because the IPL Handset may burn long hairs and it won't be effective to target the hair root if the hair is too long.
5. You are pressing down to hard on your skin, causing your skin to get in direct contact with the bulb.
6. You are not lifting the Handset after each flash. Doing this could harm the device and yourself. We recommend slightly lifting the Handset after each flash to allow for cool air to cool down the quartz bulb.
7. You are using the device on the same spot multiple times per session. We recommend only one pass over each spot then moving to a new spot, otherwise you could be harming your skin and the device.
8. You applied a cooling gel, lotion or any other type of applicant before treatment. We don't recommend using any lotion or ointment before treatment, our device is meant to be used without one.
