Become familiar with IPLuxe
Silkier IPLuxe Hair Remover is an electrical device. Therefore it should be
used with special attention to safety. This is not a wireless device, so be
near an electrical outlet during use.
Be ready to read this user manual in its entirety, and pay special attention
to the safety rules. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the user
manual before each treatment. Silkier does not bear responsibility for any
damage caused by carelessness, misuse, or negligence of the safety rules.
Intended Use
This device is intended to remove unwanted hair growth and cause permanent
hair reduction in the long run. Permanent hair reduction is defined as a long-
term stable reduction in the number of hairs growth after treatment.
You can use this method to remove unwanted body hair. Ideal body areas for
treatment include forearms, bikini line, arms, legs, face, back, shoulders and
chest. Do not use it for any other purpose than hair removal as described in
this user manual.
Safety
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology in this device provides first-class
security due to its lower energy expenditure. This device achieves long-term
results for hair removal with a fraction of the energy used in other light-
based hair removal equipment.
The low energy consumption reduces the risk of injury or complications and
improves overall safety. This device has additional features to protect your
eyes since the light pulses are only active when the treatment surface fully
touches the skin.
Please don’t look directly at the IPL device flash glass or try turning on the
device while pointing it at your eyes. This is to protect yourself and others.
Please don’t use the product in the same area more than once a week. This will
not give better or faster results and can cause damage to your skin.

Preparation before use
Ensure the skin you need to treat is free of hair, skin cream, and the like.
The skin must also be dry before starting treatment. For removal of facial
hair prior to the use, we recommend napping and using a razor. NB! Note that
the device becomes hot during use.
How to turn on the device
You can use the mains cable to connect the device to an electrical outlet. On
the side without the gold button, briefly and gently press the green button to
start the device. A fan will start, and the appliance is ready for use.
From the start, two lights on the front panel will be lit, one blue and one
pink. The pink light will turn off when the device is in contact with the skin
and ready to zap. Conversely, it will be lit when the device is not in contact
with the skin.
Choose the right intensity
The device is set to the lowest intensity by default, and it is level 1. In
your first session after a skin test, you should try to increase your strength
to maximum strength which is 5.
The skin test is explained below. If maximum strength is uncomfortable, then
you can go down in strength and rather move up again in the next session.
We recommend using maximum strength for 12 weeks for best results, as this
will give the best effect.
Skin Test
Before the first treatment, we recommend testing the device on one small area
of your skin to check your reaction. The area should be approx. 2 x 3 cm in
size, and it corresponds to the size of two flashes, side by side. Wait 48
hours to examine the test area.
If your skin looks normal, start the first treatment. If you experience a skin
reaction, you must stop using the device and consult your doctor. Avoid
treating the tested area for at least one week after the test.
Treatment Plan
The start-up phase is 12 weeks, and during this period, you should perform
treatment once a week. You can stop and go into maintenance mode if you see
good results within 12 weeks. In maintenance mode, you treat the desired area
every 1-2 months, based on your needs. The typical hair growth cycle varies
from person to person and can take up to 16 weeks, depending on the body area
(forearm, lower leg, bikini area).
Only hair in a growth-phase is susceptible to light treatment, thus it is
important to perform several treatments to achieve continuous smooth skin.
Face Treatment
- Before treating your face, make sure you have performed a skin test. Remove hair and cosmetics, creams and serums from the area. Before pressing the treatment button, close your eyes or look away to avoid bright light.
- Avoid treating the same area twice, as this may increase the chance of side effects.
- Avoid contact with lips and nostrils when treating the upper lip area. The central area under the nostrils can be sensitive. TIP: You can squeeze your lips together to ensure that the light does not activate on the upper lip itself.
- Hair growth under the chin can be denser and coarser. This can sometimes cause slight skin redness after a treatment. This redness is temporary and should disappear completely after 24 hours.
After Treatment
- When you have finished the treatment, disconnect the power supply from the electrical outlet.
- We recommend avoiding exposure to artificial light sources, such as solariums. Avoid activity or skin products that may irritate your skin for 24 hours after treatment.
- This includes the use of a whirlpool or sauna, use of tight-fitting clothing, use of bleaching creams, perfumed products or peeling products. The above can irritate, such as itching and redness, on the treated areas.

- The side effects are usually instant or appear within 24 hours. In rare cases, it can take up to 72 hours before they are displayed. Contact your doctor if you experience abnormal skin reactions.
