2. Product Overview

The Clean + Easy Electrolysis Machine Model 45026 is designed for at-home permanent hair removal. This non-laser device utilizes radio frequency transmitted via a stylet tip to weaken and eventually stop hair regrowth by targeting the hair root and shaft.

How Electrolysis Works

Electrolysis is the only non-laser method for permanent hair removal. It works by introducing a mild electrical current into the moist base of the hair follicle. This current stops the blood supply to the root, which is then neutralized by a chemical action, preventing regrowth. This method is effective on a few hairs at a time, making it suitable for various body areas and all hair/skin types.

5. Operating Instructions

Follow these steps carefully for effective hair removal:

  1. Set Comfort Dial: Turn the Comfort Control Dial to position one (1). You can increase this setting later if needed.
  2. Expose Stylet Tip: Push the slide button forward to expose the stylet tip.
  3. Hold Device: Hold the stylet like a pen with your moistened fingers around the touch band.
  4. Insert Stylet: Observe the angle of hair growth. Gently insert the stylet tip along the underside of the hair and into the follicle. The tip should slide in easily without resistance.
  5. Confirm Contact: Hold the stylet tip firmly in place. When proper contact is made, you should feel a slight tingling sensation. If no tingling is felt, increase the Comfort Control Dial setting gradually.
  6. Rotate Gently: Gently rotate the stylet tip in the follicle a few times to ensure contact with the hair root.
  7. Apply Current: Once a slight tingling is felt, hold the stylet firmly in place and count to 15 slowly.
  8. Remove Hair: Remove the stylet and use the provided tweezers to gently remove the treated hair. The hair should slide out easily without pulling or resistance. If resistance is felt, the root may not be sufficiently treated; re-treat the hair.
  9. After Treatment: After completing the session, cleanse the treated skin area with isopropyl alcohol.
