Quick Start
Plan your Silk’n Pro™ hair removal for best results
Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart
Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart
Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.
Set up Silk’n Pro!
1. Remove Pro™ BASE UNIT, APPLICATOR and other components from box.
2. Verify that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE is inserted properly at the tip of the APPLICATOR.
3. Plug the power cord into the Pro™ BASE UNIT socket.
4. Plug the other end of the power cord into an electrical outlet. The STAND BY INDICATOR LIGHT will
turn on.
Your Silk’n Pro™ is now ready to start.
Treat with Silk’n Pro safely and properly!
5. Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.
6. The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders, antiperspirants or
deodorants.
Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out. Shaving is an important step to get the results you want!
7. Press the ON/STBY SWITCH. The POWER ON INDICATOR LIGHT (orange) will turn on and a fan
sound (similar to the sound of a hairdryer) will start.
8. Approximately 3.5 seconds after pressing the ON/STBY SWITCH, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT
(green) will turn on. The device is then ready for you to trigger the first pulse at the lowest energy level.
9. If this is your first treatment - Choose the energy level.
Pro oers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to 5 (the highest).
To choose the right energy level for your first treatment, test each treatment area separately:
Place theTREATMENT SURFACE on the skin and press the PULSE BUTTON to deliver one pulse.
If you did not experience abnormal discomfort press the + button once and deliver one pulse on a
dierent spot at energy level 2.
Continue testing at increased energy levels until you have reached the highest level that you feel
comfortable with. If within one hour you experience no adverse eects, you can start your full
treatment at that energy level.
Repeat this test for each body part you intend to treat.

English
10. Set the energy level. If the energy level should be higher than the lowest, press the ENERGY LEVEL
SETTING BUTTONS using the “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the energy level, until
the desired energy level is set and represented by 3 energy level indicator lights (For details see “Energy
Level” chapter inside this user manual).
11. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. As
soon as the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT will
start blinking.
12. Press the PULSE BUTTON. The device will first determine the color of your skin. If the color of the skin
is light enough for safe application, the device will flash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the READY
INDICATOR LIGHT will turn o. You will see a bright flash of light and simultaneously hear a subtle pop
sound, which is a normal noise for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling.
Silk’n Pro™ will immediately recharge for the next pulse. After 3.5 seconds the READY INDICATOR
LIGHT will turn on again.
13. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.
14. Move the TREATMENT SURFACE to another area of skin. Use the pressure marks the device just
made on your skin to guide you for proper positioning of the next pulse, avoiding both gaps and overlaps
between pulses.
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Try to avoid overlapping pulses!
Warning: Do not treat the same area of skin more than
once per hair removal session!
Treating the same area of skin more than once per session
increases the likelihood of adverse eects.
15. Repeat the process until the entire treatment area is covered.

1.3. The Disposable Lamp Cartridge
The Silk’n Pro™ all-purpose DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE can re a limited and pre-set number of
light pulses (regardless of the energy level of these pulses).
For your information - A complete series of full-body treatments typically require 5,000-7,000 light pulses.
2. Silk’n Pro™ Intended Use
Silk’n Pro™ may be used to remove unwanted body hair.
Ideal body areas for Silk’n Pro™ use include the underarms, bikini line, arms, legs, face, back shoulders and chest.
Silk’n Pro™ is intended for removal of unwanted hair.
3. Safety with Silk’n Pro™
With Silk’n Pro™ Safety Comes First.
HPL™ technology in Silk’n Pro™ - Superior safety with lower energy level: Home Pulsed Light™
technology is able to achieve long-term hair removal results at a fraction of the energy level used in other
light-based hair removal equipment. The low energy used in Silk’n Pro™ reduces its potential to cause
harm or complications, and contributes to your overall safety.
Silk’n Pro™ protects your skin: Light based hair removal is not suitable for naturally darker skin tones
or tanned skin. Silk’n Pro™ comes with a built-in SKIN COLOR SENSOR that is designed to measure
the complexion of the applied surface and enable application only on suitable skin complexions. This
unique safety feature will not let you treat where your skin is too dark or too tanned Furthermore, The
2X3cm² TREATMENT SURFACE through which pulses of light are delivered is recessed inside the LAMP
CARTRIDGE at the TREATMENT SURFACE. This enables Silk’n Pro™ to protect your skin by avoiding
direct contact between the TREATMENT SURFACE and the skin.
Silk’n Pro™ protects your eyes: The Silk’n Pro™ APPLICATOR has a built-in safety feature for eye
protection. It has been designed so that a light pulse can not be emitted when the APPLICATOR is facing
open air. The safety switch is activated only when the TREATMENT SURFACE is in contact with the tissue.

7. Possible side effects using Silk’n Pro™
When used according to the instructions, side effects and complications associated with use of Silk’n Pro™
are uncommon. However every cosmetic procedure, including those designed for home use, involves some
degree of risk. Therefore it is important that you understand and accept the risks and complications that can
occur with pulsed light hair removal systems designed for home use.
Adverse Reaction Degree of Risk
Minor Skin Discomfort – Although home pulsed light hair removal is generally
very well-tolerated, most users do feel some mild discomfort during use, usually
described as being a mild stinging sensation on the treated skin areas. The
stinging sensation usually lasts during the time of the application itself or for a
few minutes thereafter. Anything beyond this minor discomfort is abnormal and
means that either you should not continue to use Silk’n Pro™ because you are
unable to tolerate the hair removal application, or that the energy level setting is
too high.
Minor
Skin Redness – Your skin may become red right after using Silk’n Pro™ or within
24 hours of using Silk’n Pro™. Redness generally clears up within 24 hours. See
your doctor if redness does not go away within 2 to 3 days.
Minor
Increased Sensitivity to Skin – The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you
may encounter dryness or aking of the skin.
Minor
Pigment Changes –
Silk’n Pro™ targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented
cells in the hair follicle and the hair follicle itself. Nevertheless there is risk of
temporary hyperpigmentation (increased pigment or brown discoloration) or
hypopigmentation (whitening) to the surrounding skin. This risk of changes in skin
pigmentation is higher for people with darker skin tones. Usually discoloration or
changes to skin pigment are temporary and permanent hyperpigmentation or
hypopigmentation rarely occur.
Rare
Excessive Redness and Swelling –
In rare cases treated skin may become
very red and swollen. This is more common in sensitive areas of the body. The
redness and swelling should subside within 2 to 7 days and should be treated
with frequent applications of ice. Gentle cleansing is OK, but one should avoid
exposure to sun.

8. Long Term Hair Removal the Silk’n Pro™ Way
A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24 months. During this time multiple Pro™ sessions may be required
in order to achieve permanent hair removal.
The efciency of hair removal varies from person to person according to body area, hair color, and how Silk’n
Pro™ is used.
Typical Silk’n Pro™ hair removal plan during a full hair growth cycle:
Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart
Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart
Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.
Expected Treatment Outcome for Hair Removal
1. Individual response depends on hair type as well as biological factors that may aect hair growth patterns. Some users may respond quicker or slower than
the average number of treatments.
2. One cannot expect permanent epilation in a single or even double treatment sessions. The duration of the resting period for hair follicles also depends
on the body area.

9. Get Started!
1. Remove Pro™ BASE UNIT, APPLICATOR and other components from box.
2. Verify that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE is inserted properly at the tip of the APPLICATOR and
that it is not damaged.
3. Plug the POWER CORD into the Pro™ BASE UNIT socket.
4. Plug the other end of the POWER CORD into an electrical outlet. The STAND BY INDICATOR LIGHT
(green) will turn on.
Your Silk’n Pro™ is now ready to start.
Treat with Silk’n Pro™ safely and properly!
Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.
5. The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders, antiperspirants or
deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out. Shaving is an important step to get the results you want!
6. Press the ON/STBY SWITCH. The POWER ON INDICATOR LIGHT (orange) will turn on and a fan sound
(similar to the sound of a hairdryer) will start.
7. Approximately 3.5 seconds after pressing the ON/ STBY SWITCH, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT
(green) will turn on. The device is then ready for you to trigger the rst pulse at the lowest energy level.
8. If this is your rst treatment - Choose the energy level. Pro™ offers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to
5 (the highest). To choose the right energy level for your rst treatment, test each treatment area separately:
9. Set the energy level. If the energy level should be higher than the lowest, press the ENERGY LEVEL SETTING
BUTTONS using the “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the energy level, until the desired energy level is
set and represented by 3 energy level indicator lights (For details see “Energy Level” chapter inside this user manual).
Place the TREATMENT SURFACE on the skin and press the PULSE BUTTON to deliver one pulse.
If you did not experience abnormal discomfort press the + button once and deliver one pulse on a
different spot at energy level 2.
Continue testing at increased energy levels until you have reached the highest level that you feel
comfortable with. If within one hour you experience no adverse effects, you can start your full
treatment at that energy level.
Repeat this test for each body part you intend to treat.

13
English
10. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. As soon as
the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT will start blinking.
11. Press the PULSE BUTTON. The device will rst determine the color of your skin. If the color of the skin
is light enough for safe application, the device will ash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the READY
INDICATOR LIGHT will turn off. You will see a bright ash of light and simultaneously hear a subtle pop
sound, which is a normal noise for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling.
Silk’n Pro™ will immediately recharge for the next pulse.
After 3.5 seconds the READY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on again.
12. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.
13. Move the TREATMENT SURFACE to another area of skin. Use the pressure marks the device just made
on your skin to guide you for proper positioning of the next pulse, avoiding both gaps and overlaps between
pulses.
Silk’n Pro™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and progressing
sequentially towards the other end.This technique allows better control of skin coverage,and helps you
avoid treating the same area more than once or overlapping skin areas.
When applied to the skin, the Silk’n Pro™ TREATMENT SURFACE is designed to create temporary
pressure marks on the treated area. These visible marks can be used for proper positioning of the
next pulse.
Try to avoid overlapping pulses!
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
Warning: Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!
Treating the same area of skin more than once per session increases the likelihood of
adverse effects.
14. Repeat the process until the entire treatment area is covered.

English
The Skin Color Sensor
Light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can result in adverse effects such as burns, blisters, and skin
color changes (hyper- or hypo-pigmentation). To prevent such misuse, a unique SKIN COLOR SENSOR
in Silk’n Pro™ measures the treated skin complexion at the beginning of each session and occasionally
during the session. If the SKIN COLOR SENSOR detects a skin tone that is too dark for Silk’n Pro™
application, the device will automatically stop emitting pulses. If you see no light pulse and the SKIN
TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT blinks, this is an indication that your skin tone, measured by the
SKIN COLOR SENSOR, is too dark for safe application. Try using the device on a different body part or
contact the Silk’n support.
Covering skin areas
Silk’n Pro™ pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and
progressing sequentially towards the other end. This technique allows better control of skin
coverage, and helps you avoid treating the same area more than once or overlapping skin
areas. When applied to the skin, the Silk’n Pro™ TREATMENT SURFACE is designed to
create temporary pressure marks on the treated area. These visible marks can be used for
proper positioning of the next pulse.
Energy Level
Energy level determines the intensity of the Silk’n Pro™ light pulse delivered to your skin, from the
lowest level (-) to the highest level (+). Corresponding INDICATOR LIGHTS on the CONTROL PANEL
represent the increases in energy. As energy level increases, so does hair removal results as well as
the risk of possible side effects and complications. Whenever Silk’n Pro™ is turned on its energy level
will automatically be reset to the lowest energy level. Only one ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHT
will be on. To set the energy level, press the ENERGY LEVEL SETTING BUTTONS using “-“ or “+”
to respectively decrease or increase the energy level. The number of ENERGY LEVEL INDICATOR
LIGHTS will coincide with the change in energy level.
Try to avoid overlapping pulses!
Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!
If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!

English
9.2. After treating with Silk’n Pro™
When Silk’n Pro™ session has been completed turn Silk’n Pro™ off by pressing the POWER ON/OFF
SWITCH. (Be sure to remember the last energy level setting you used, as it will not be restored when turning
Silk’n Pro™ on again.)
Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet.
After each hair removal session it is recommended that you clean your Silk’n Pro™ device, especially the
TREATMENT SURFACE (See: “Cleaning Silk’n Pro™”).
After cleaning, it is recommended to store your Silk’n Pro™ device in its original box, and keep it away
from water.
9.1.What to Expect when treating with Silk’n Pro™?
For many people, using Silk’n Pro™ may be their rst experience with a light-based device designed for home
use. Silk’n Pro™ is simple to use, and hair removal sessions go by quickly. During a Silk’n Pro™ session it is
normal to experience and feel:
A Fan Noise – The cooling fan in Silk’n Pro™ makes noise similar to a hairdryer. This is normal.
A Pop Sound with Each Pulse – When a pulse of HPL™ light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop
sound simultaneously with the ash of light.
Moderate Pressure of the APPLICATOR – This is necessary and helpful for placement of adjacent pulses
of light, and is part of the unique safety feature of Silk’n Pro™.
A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling – During each pulse of light it is normal to feel a mild sensation of
warmth and tingling from the light energy.
Remember it is important to always use low energy settings for initial hair removal sessions. You may feel
some warmth for up to an hour after your Silk’n Pro™ session.
Some Mild Red or Pink Color – During and just after your Silk’n Pro™ session it is not uncommon to
see some very mild, pink-like color of the skin. This is usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.
However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns stop use of Silk’n Pro™ immediately.
Skin care following hair removal session
Do not expose treated areas of skin to the sun. Be sure to carefully protect the treated
skin with sunscreen, throughout the hair removal period and for at least 2 weeks
following the last Silk’n Pro™ session.

Pro™ surface, and especially the TREATMENT SURFACE.
Never immerse Silk’n Pro™ or any of its parts in water!
The Silk’n Pro™ DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE can re a pre-set and limited number of light pulses. Pulse
intensity is determined only according to the energy level setting of the device. There is no decrease of energy
during the usable lifetime of the LAMP CARTRIDGE.
When only 100 light pulses remain in the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE
INDICATOR LIGHT on the CONTROL PANEL will start blinking, indicating that the DISPOSABLE LAMP
CARTRIDGE should soon be replaced. As the number of light pulses in the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE
further decreases, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE INDICATOR LIGHT blinking will grow faster. Once all the
pulses in a DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE have been used, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE INDICATOR
LIGHT will remain steadily on, indicating that further pulses cannot be emitted. In order to continue the hair
removal session, it will now be necessary to replace the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE.

pressed to the skin. For your safety, the PULSE BUTTON will activate a pulse only if the TRETMENT SURFACE
is rmly pressed against the skin.
Check the CONTROL PANEL. If the SKIN TONE WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT blink for 3 seconds, this
is an indication that your skin tone, measured by the SKIN COLOR SENSOR, is too dark for safe application.

Vorbereitung Ihres Silk’n Pro!
1. Nehmen Sie die Pro™-BASISEINHEIT, den APPLIKATOR und die anderen Teile aus der Schachtel.
2. Vergewissern Sie sich, dass der EINWEGLICHTEINSATZ richtig in die Spitze des Gerätes eingesetzt ist.
3. Stecken Sie das Netzkabel in die dafür vorgesehene Buchse in der Pro™-BASISEINHEIT.
4. Verbinden Sie das andere Ende des Netzkabels mit einer Steckdose. Die STANDBY-KONTROLLLAMPE
wird aufleuchten.
Ihr Silk’n Pro™ ist jetzt einsatzbereit.
Sichere und vorschriftsmäßige Behandlung mit Silk’n Pro!
5. Wählen Sie nur solche Behandlungsbereiche, die nicht kurz zuvor der Sonne ausgesetzt waren.
6. Die Haut im Behandlungsbereich sollte rasiert, sauber, trocken und frei von jeglichen Antiperspirantien
oder Deodorants sein. Die Haare dürfen nicht mit Wachs entfernt, herausgerissen oder mit einer Pinzette
ausgezupft werden. Die Rasur ist eine wichtige Voraussetzung, um die gewünschten Resultate zu erzielen!
7. Drücken Sie den NETZSCHALTER FÜR EIN/BETRIEBSBEREIT. Die BETRIEBSANZEIGE (orange) wird
sich begleitet von einem Geräusch (ähnelt dem Geräusch eines Föns) einschalten.
8. Nach ungefähr 3,5 Sekunden, nachdem Sie den NETZSCHALTER FÜR EIN/BETRIEBSBEREIT gedrückt
haben, wird die BEREITSCHAFTSANZEIGE (grün) aufleuchten. Das Gerät ist dann für die Versendung des
ersten Pulses auf niedrigster Energiestufe bereit.
9. Falls dies Ihre erste Behandlung ist – Wählen Sie die Energiestufe.
Pro bietet 5 Energiestufen von 1 (am
niedrigsten) bis 5 (am höchsten). Zur Auswahl der passenden Energiestufe testen Sie jeden Behandlungsbereich einzeln:
Legen Sie die BEHANDLUNGSOBERFLÄCHE auf die Haut und drücken Sie die IMPULS-TASTE um
einen Impuls auszulösen.
Wenn Sie wenig oder keine Schmerzen verspüren, drücken Sie einmal auf dieTaste + und versenden
an einer neuen Stelle einen Puls der Energiestufe 2.
Setzen Sie diesen Test mit höheren Energiestufen fort, bis Sie die höchste Energiestufe, auf der eine
Behandlung für Sie noch angenehm ist, erreichen.Wenn innerhalb einer Stunde nach der Behandlung
keine Beschwerden auftreten, können Sie die volle Behandlung mit dieser Energiestufe fortsetzen.
Wiederholen Sie diesenTest für jeden Körperbereich, den Sie behandeln möchten.
