7. Usage Guidelines and Expected Results

Consistent use is crucial for achieving optimal results. Hair removal requires prolonged use for noticeable effects. We recommend following these usage guidelines for at least three months.

• Weeks 1-2: Treat 3 times per week.
• Weeks 3-5: Treat 2 times per week.
• After 5 Weeks: Use the device once a month for maintenance.

After approximately two months of consistent use, hair growth typically becomes slower and finer. For best results, it is recommended to use the device for at least one year. Protect treated skin from sun exposure, especially after using laser hair removal.
