IPL Pro™
Automatic Laser Hair Removal Machine
User Manual

YOUR IPL PRO™
Your IPL PRO™ Automatic Laser Hair Removal Machine is a home-use
handheld, hair removal device that uses intense pulsed light (IPL) for long-
term hair removal. IPL PRO™ can be used to remove unwanted hair from all
over the body, including the bikini line, armpits, arms, legs and face.
The IPL technology used by IPL PRO™ provides long-term hair removal
results at a fraction of the energy used by other light-based hair removal
devices. Making it safe, as well as effective. IPL PRO™ protects your eyes
and skin, designed so that a ash of IPL cannot be emitted unless the
treatment window and skin sensors are in full contact with your skin.

HOW TO USE YOUR
IPL PRO™
1. Shave, short-trim, epilate or wax the hairs you wish to
remove. This ensures the IPL is absorbed deep into the
hair follicles. See page 5 for guidance on using IPL to
remove facial hair.
2. Clean your skin, making sure it is entirely dry and free
from oils and creams.
3. Plug the power cable into a plug socket and press the
power button to turn on your IPL PRO™. If this is your rst
time using your IPL PRO™, see page 4 for the skin test.
4. Choose your light intensity level by pressing the light
intensity button.
5. Remove the IPL PRO™ device from the base unit and
press the ash button once to remove it from standby
mode.
6. Choose manual or automatic ash mode. See page 6 for
guidance.
7. Place the IPL PRO™ device at a 90° angle against your
skin surface. Ensuring the treatment window and skin
sensors are fully against your skin.
8. If in MANUAL mode: Press and release the ash button to
release a single ash of IPL. Glide your IPL PRO™ to the
next area and repeat.
If in AUTO mode: Press the ash button once to remove
it from standby mode, then press the treatment window
against the skin and the device will release several
ashes in a row. Slowly glide your IPL PRO™ across your
treatment area.
9. After 30 seconds of non-use, your IPL PRO™ will enter
standby mode. Simply press the ash button once to
continue. To turn your IPL PRO™ off, hold the power
button. It will automatically turn off after 10 minutes of
non-use.
10. For best results clean your device after each hair removal
session. Whilst unplugged, use a clean dry cloth to gently
wipe the outer shell, skin sensors and treatment window.

First Time Use - Skin Test and
Choosing Your Light Intensity
Level
The light intensity level setting determines the intensity
of the IPL ash delivered to your skin. There are 3 levels
– level 1 being the most suitable for fair skin, and level
3 for darker skin.
When you use your IPL PRO™ for the rst time, or after
sun exposure, perform a skin test on each area that you
are going to treat to check your skin’s reaction and to
determine the correct light intensity level for each area.
1. Select light intensity level 1 and place the device
at a 90° angle on the skin you wish to treat so that
the treatment window and skin sensors are in full
contact with your skin.
2. In ‘MANUAL’ mode, press the ash button to
release a single ash of IPL.
3. Slide the device over the skin to the next area to
be treated.
4. Increase the light intensity setting to level 2, and
press the ash button again.
5. Repeat this for light intensity level 3 on a different
area of skin.
6. Wait 30 minutes and check your reaction before
proceeding with your treatment. Choose the
highest setting that did not result in any skin
reaction.
IPL hair removal may feel like a warm tingling sensation,
but should never hurt. Do not increase the light
intensity level if you experience any discomfort during
or after use.
