How does it work?
Braun Silk-expert Pro 3 works beneath the skin surface by targeting the melanin in the hair follicle, helping to break the cycle of hair re-growth. With continued, periodic use, the light energy helps prevent unwanted hair from reaching the skin surface.The intelligent SensoAdapt™ skin sensors (2) continuously read your skin tone before every flash, automatically adapting the light intensity for best efficacy and safety. This allows treatment of appropriate skin tones, but prevents treatment if your skin tone is too dark.
How to use
Preparing the treatment area: Remove any visible hair on the skin before using the device. Use your preferred hair removal method. To keep the treatment window clean and intact, ensure there is no hair remaining on the skin surface. Clean the treatment area and pat it dry.To power on the device: Use the mains cord (8) to connect the base station to an electrical outlet. Press the gentle mode button (4) to activate the device. The LED power bars (3) will light up once and, a fan starts running. This means the device is in READY mode. During operation, the device will heat up slightly.
