5. Skin Tone & Hair Color Suitability

The effectiveness and safety of IPL treatment depend on your skin tone and hair color. Please refer to the chart below to determine if the INIA Fond device is suitable for you.

General Guidelines:

• IPL is most effective on lighter skin tones with darker hair.
• Darker skin tones may absorb too much light energy, leading to skin irritation or burns.
• Very light hair colors (red, gray, white, very light blonde) may not contain enough melanin for the IPL to effectively target the follicle.

6. Setup

Before your first treatment, follow these steps to prepare the device and your skin:

1. Prepare and Shave: Ensure the treatment area is clean and dry. Shave the hair in the area you intend to treat. Do not wax or pluck, as the hair root needs to be present for IPL to be effective.
2. Wear Goggles: Put on the provided protective goggles to shield your eyes from the intense light flashes.
3. Power Connection: Safely plug the device into a power outlet using the provided adapter. The device is designed for corded use.

9. Maintenance

Proper care ensures the longevity and effectiveness of your device:

• Cleaning: After each use, ensure the device is unplugged and cool. Gently wipe the flash window and the device body with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.
• Storage: Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep it in its original packaging or a protective case to prevent damage.

10. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your INIA Fond device, please refer to the following general advice:

• Device Not Turning On: Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into both the device and a working power outlet.
• No Flash: Check that the flash window is in full contact with your skin. The device has a safety mechanism that prevents flashing without proper skin contact. Ensure the device is not in auto-glide mode if you intend to manually flash.
• Skin Irritation: If you experience redness or discomfort, reduce the intensity level for your next treatment. Ensure you are following all pre- and post-treatment care instructions.
• Lack of Results: Ensure you are following the recommended treatment schedule and using the appropriate intensity level for your skin and hair type. Consistent use over several weeks is necessary to see significant hair reduction.
