Skin Safety Test V2

Flasher 2.0 Skin Safety

BEFORE YOU START

IPL is not suitable for all people. While very rare, some people can have a skin reaction to IPL treatment that results in burning or hypo-pigmentation (less melanin in your skin). Before beginning treatment you MUST complete a Skin Safety Test. Not completing this test or improper use of this device can lead to burning, scarring, or skin discoloration.

If your skin is Type 5 or Type 6 on the Fitzpatrick Skin Chart or if you have recent UV exposure that has altered the pigment of your skin (artificial or natural light), you are at a higher risk of an skin reaction.

IPL may also not be suitable for certain medical conditions or medications, please reference those listed in our Contraindications, Warnings, and Precautions in the manual included with your device.

Fitzpatrick Skin Chart

IPL requires contrast between the melanin in your hair and the melanin in your skin.Before beginning treatment with Nood’s IPL Hair Removal System, The Flasher 2.0, it is recommended that you consult a doctor or dermatologist.
