• If your skin tone or hair colour is not suitable, it is prohibited to use this device
(please refer to the skin colour card). (If necessary, please consult your doctor
before use).
• Hair removal by the IPL hair removal device or intense pulsed light sources
can increase hair growth in some individuals. Based upon currently available
data, the highest risk groups for this response are females of Mediterranean,
Middle Eastern, and South Asian heritage treated on the face and neck. This
group should be careful.

be at risk using it alone.
• If your hair is longer than 1mm, please shave rst. We recommend that you
use a razor. Excessively long hair absorbs heat on the surface of the skin,
which will cause skin redness and swelling, and scorched hair will produce
odor. This will affect your experience with the device.
• If the skin of the irradiated area is not dry or clean, it will affect the use of
effectiveness and may also cause the device to not ash or ash unexpectedly.

How Does Vorsprung Luminous IPL Work
What to Expect
Applicable Conditions
Body Areas
The VORSPRUNG Luminous IPL Hair Removal Device offers hair removal via
the Intense Pulsed Light technology, also known as IPL. Essentially, the device
utilises high-energy light to achieve long-term hair reduction. The absorbed light
energy is converted to heat energy (below the surface of the skin), which disables
the hair follicle. This puts the hair into a resting phase.
Immediately post treatment: You should not see any signicant side effects from
treatment.
In the rst 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 effective.
Around 2 weeks into the 4 week treatment program: 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 5 - 6 week program: You should see a signicant reduction in hairs
within the treated area. Any remaining hairs should be ner and lighter in color.
Continued monthly treatments, or treatments as required, should maintain the
reduction in unwanted hair
Intended use: IPL hair removal device is an over-the-counter device intended
for removal of unwanted hair such as, but not limited to, small areas such as
underarm and facial hair below the chin line and large areas such as legs.
Suitable for persons aged 18+ only.
Women: Legs, arms, underarms, bikini area and face (below the cheek bones)
CAUTION: Do not use the device near the eyes, along the forehead, on the lips or
nostrils. Do not use it in the genital area.
Men: Shoulders and below (chest, back, arms, stomach, legs)
CAUTION: Do not use on the face, neck or genital area. The device is intended
to be used on body hair below the neck, including arms, underarms, bikini line,
stomach and legs. (Use on male beards or facial hair may lead to uneven results).

WARNING: Follow each step in the treatment process ensuring you complete all
aspects of each step before progressing to the next.
Remove all visible hair on the skin before using the device. Clean the skin
thoroughly to ensure that the skin is completely dry and is free of residual hairs
and oily substances (perfume, lotion, liquid deodorant, sun cream, etc). This
allows the light to be absorbed by the hair parts below the skin surface to ensure
effective treatment. Do not use hair removal creams, as chemicals may cause
skin reactions.
Before your rst treatment on each new body area, we recommend you identify
whether your skin tone is suitable and test your skin (in that area) for reactions.
Please select a small part to perform skin sensitivity test according to following
requirements:
1) Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
2) Switch on the device. Make sure you select level 1 or 2.
3) Put the device against your skin and press the ash button to release a ash.
4) Slide the device over the skin to the next area to be treated.

area. Repeat this for all levels within the recommended range for your skin type.

skin shows reactions, choose the highest setting that did not result in any skin
reaction for subsequent use.

TREATMENT SCHEDULE FOR YOUR IPL HAIR REMOVAL DEVICE

Start at the lowest setting (level 1 or 2) and work your way up as the hair follicles
start to die off. After a few treatments you should notice the pain level decreasing
(the darker coarser hair follicles should be inactivated, the lighter/ner hair won’t
hurt as much) and you can up the power.
Select a Appropriate Energy Level
The VORSPRUNG LUMINOUS IPL device has a high energy output, which means
it might hurt a little more on level 3-5, but it’ll be more effective at reducing hair
growth. The ICE cooling function helps reduce the pain to make it tolerable at the
high energy level.
If you feel intense pain or burn, please treat with lower level.
Use High-Energy Levels with Caution
For optimal results, the IPL hair removal device should be used twice a week for 8
weeks to ensure all hair follicles are treated.
After the initial treatment phase (8 weekly treatments), to maintain treated results
we recommend the IPL hair removal machine is used once a week for 9-12 weeks,
then, once a month.
Note: You can adjust the energy levels according to your pain tolerance and the
growth of the hair. We do not recommend exceeding the suggested treatment
frequency.

According to our research, those who returned the device due to of lack of hair
reduction did not treat the area long enough. This part is unpredictable as there is
nothing you can do to speed up the process due to each individuals growth cycle
and each hair can only be effectively zapped when it is in its right phase of the
cycle. In fact, in the few days following a treatment it can even look like there is
more hair because the zapped hairs are getting pushed out. We are committed to
serving customers with reliable quality products and aftersales service. You are
supported by a one year product guarantee from date of purchase.
