SmoothSkin Pure Fit is designed to help break the cycle of hair growth. Light energy is transferred
through the skin’s surface and is absorbed by melanin present in the hair shaft. The absorbed light
energy is converted to heat energy (below the surface of the skin), which disables the hair follicle.
Treated hairs naturally fall out over the course of a few days to 1-2 weeks.
Hair growth is cyclical and follows 3 distinct and consecutive phases. IPL treatment is only eective
when hairs are in a particular phase (the Anagen – growth phase). Not all hairs are in the same
phase at any one time. This is why you should follow the recommended treatment regimen of 12
weekly treatments.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Immediately post treatment, you should not see any significant side eects from treatment (Refer to
section 4 for more information on side eects).
In the first few weeks following the initial treatments, you will still see some hairs growing. These are
likely to be hairs that were missed during treatment i.e. they were lying dormant and not in their growth
phase (Anagen) during treatment; when IPL is most eective.
Around 6 weeks into the 12 week treatment programme you should see a reduction in hair growth.
However, many hairs may still not have been treated in their growth phase. It is important to continue
the weekly treatments.
After the 12 week programme, you should see a significant reduction in hairs within the treated area.
Any remaining hairs should be finer and lighter in colour. Continued monthly treatments, or treatments
as required, should maintain the reduction in unwanted hair.

3. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
CONTRAINDICATIONS
DO NOT
use SmoothSkin Pure Fit if you have very dark skin. The skin tone sensor located near the

power and is switched on.
DO NOT attempt to activate (flash) the system towards the eye.
DO NOT treat areas around the eye (eyebrows or eyelashes). Misuse can lead to eye damage,

photosensitive skin could result in skin damage such as swelling or blisters. Seek medical advice
prior to application of the appliance as use may harm the skin. This appliance is not intended for
the treatment of medical conditions. Medical advice should be sought to address, for example,

5. BENEFITS OF USING SMOOTHSKIN PURE
SmoothSkin Pure Fit is indicated for the permanent reduction of unwanted hair.
A clinical trial was performed to assess both the safety and ecacy of SmoothSkin Pure Fit. The key
features of the clinical trial were:
All treatments were performed by non-medically trained operators at a single location using devices
identical to SmoothSkin Pure Fit provided in this package;
All subjects were required to complete questionnaires related to their general health and those who
could not be treated, e.g. those who had one or more of the contraindications as listed in Section 3 of
this User Manual were excluded. In addition, all subjects were required to provide Informed Consent as
per international clinical trial requirements;

18
A total of 53 female subjects, aged between 19 and 45 years old, commenced the trial;
Three subjects left the trial during the treatment period for personal reasons. No subjects left the trial
due to problems associated with the use of SmoothSkin Pure Fit;
Each subject received 12 weekly treatments to their chosen body location. A typical treatment consisted
of shaving the site then applying SmoothSkin Pure Fit following the same process as outlined in Section
8, Step 3 of this user manual;
Hair counts were used to measure the change in the amount of hair 6 months after the last treatment
and 12 months after the last treatment. The hairs in the treatment sites were counted via high resolution
photography and the dierence in hair counts was calculated as a percentage change;
When used as directed, the clinical trial participants showed on average 44% less hair 6 months after
their last treatment and 36% less hair 12 months after their last treatment when compared to hair counts
taken before treatment (See Table below). Actual results did vary from person to person;
