Preparing treatment areas

1 Shave the areas you intend to treat as long as these areas still show

hair regrowth.

Note: Do not use depilatory creams instead of shaving.

epilating), you can start the treatment right away. In this case, we advise you to

shave in between treatments for optimal results.
