the appliance hair root from becoming active again, the treatments
as often as have to be repeated once every two weeks for the
recommended. first two months. Your skin should be smooth and
hair-free by then. To ensure that you keep these
results, we advise you to repeat the treatments on the
underarms and bikini line every two weeks. On the
legs, regrowth is usually slower. Therefore, a treatment
once every four weeks is probably sufficient to keep
your legs smooth and hair-free. If you see too many
hairs grow back within these four weeks, then simply
shorten the interval between treatments again, but do
not treat more often than once every two weeks.
