Quick Start

Plan your Silk’n Freedom hair removal for best results!

Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart

Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart

Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.

Set up Silk’n Freedom!

1. Remove Silk’n Freedom HAIR REMOVAL UNIT and other components from box.

2. Verify that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE is inserted properly at the tip of the device.

3. Plug the ADAPTOR cord into the Silk’n Freedom HAIR REMOVAL UNIT socket.

4. Plug the ADAPTOR into an electrical outlet. The STAND BY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on.

Your Silk’n Freedom is now ready to start.

Treat with Silk’n Freedom safely and properly!

5. Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.

6. The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders, antiperspirants

or deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out.

Shaving is an important step to get the results you want!

7. Press the ON/STBY SWITCH. The POWER ON INDICATOR LIGHT (orange) will turn on and a fan

sound (similar to the sound of a hairdryer) will start and stay on for as long as the device is operated

and occasionally a few minutes after turn-o.

8. Approximately 3.5 seconds after pressing the ON/ STBY SWITCH, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT

(green) will turn on. The device is then ready for you to trigger the ﬁrst pulse at the lowest energy level.

9. If this is your ﬁrst treatment - Choose the energy level. Freedom oers 5 levels of energy from

1(the lowest) to 5 (the highest). To choose the right energy level for your ﬁrst treatment, test each

treatment area separately:

Place the TREATMENT SURFACE on the skin and press the trigger to deliver one pulse.

If you did not experience abnormal discomfort press the + button once and deliver one pulse on a

dierent spot at energy level 2.

Continue testing at increased energy levels until you have reached the highest level that you feel

comfortable with. If within one hour you experience no adverse eects, you can start your full

treatment at that energy level.

Repeat this test for each body part you intend to treat.

Skin Test

English

10. Set the energy level. If the energy level should be higher than the lowest, press the ENERGY LEVEL

SETTING BUTTONS using the “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the energy level, until the

desired energy level is set and represented by 3 energy level indicator lights (For details see “Energy

Level” chapter inside this user manual).

11. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly.

As soon as the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY INDICATOR

LIGHT will start blinking.

12. Press the PULSE BUTTON. The device will ﬁrst determine the color of your skin. If the color of the

skin is light enough for safe application, the device will ﬂash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the

READY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn o.

You will see a bright ﬂash of light and simultaneously hear a subtle pop sound, which is a normal noise

for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling.

Silk’n Freedom will immediately recharge for the next pulse. After 3.5 seconds the READY

INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on again.

13. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.

14. Move the TREATMENT SURFACE to another area of skin. Use the pressure marks the device just

made on your skin to guide you for proper positioning of the next pulse, avoiding both gaps and

overlaps between pulses.

If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!

Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

Warning: Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!

Treating the same area of skin more than once per session increases the likelihood of

adverse eects.

15. Repeat the process until the entire treatment area is covered.

In addition to the regular all-purpose DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE, a Precision lamp cartridge for

small and hard to reach areas is also available.

Silk’n Freedom may be used to remove unwanted body hair.

Ideal body areas for Silk’n Freedom use include the underarms, bikini line, arms, legs, back shoulders and chest.

Freedom is also intended to eect long term, or permanent results. Hair removal permanent results

are deﬁned as a long-term stable reduction in the number of hairs re-growing after a treatment regime.

2. Silk’n Freedom Intended Use

With Silk’n Freedom Safety Comes First.

HPL™ technology in Silk’n Freedom - Superior safety with lower energy level

Home Pulsed Light™ technology is able to achieve long-term hair removal results at a fraction of the

energy level used in other light-based hair removal equipment. The low energy used in Silk’n Freedom

reduces its potential to cause harm or complications, and contributes to your overall safety.

Silk’n Freedom protects your skin

Light based hair removal is not suitable for naturally darker skin tones or tanned skin. Silk’n Freedom

7. Possible side eects using Silk’n Freedom

When used according to the instructions, side eects and complications associated with use of Silk’n

Freedom are uncommon. However every cosmetic procedure, including those designed for home use,

involves some degree of risk. Therefore it is important that you understand and accept the risks and

complications that can occur with pulsed light hair removal systems designed for home use.

Adverse Reaction Degree of Risk

Minor Skin Discomfort –

Although home pulsed light hair removal is generally very well-tolerated, most users do feel

some mild discomfort during use, usually described as being a mild stinging sensation on the

treated skin areas. The stinging sensation usually lasts during the time of the application itself

or for a few minutes thereafter.

Anything beyond this minor discomfort is abnormal and means that either you should

not continue to use Silk’n Freedom because you are unable to tolerate the hair removal

application, or that the energy level setting is too high.

Minor

Adverse Reaction Degree of Risk

Skin Redness – Your skin may become red right after using Silk’n Freedom or within 24

hours of using Silk’n Freedom. Redness generally clears up within 24 hours. See your doctor

if redness does not go away within 2 to 3 days. Minor

Increased Sensitivity to Skin – The skin of the treated area is more sensitive so you may

encounter dryness or ﬂaking of the skin. Minor

Pigment Changes – Silk’n Freedom targets the hair shaft, in particular the pigmented

cells in the hair follicle and the hair follicle itself. Nevertheless there is risk of temporary

hyperpigmentation (increased pigment or brown discoloration) or hypopigmentation

(whitening) to the surrounding skin. This risk of changes in skin pigmentation is higher

for people with darker skin tones. Usually discoloration or changes to skin pigment are

temporary and permanent hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation rarely occur.

Rare

Excessive Redness and Swelling – In rare cases treated skin may become very red and

swollen. This is more common in sensitive areas of the body. The redness and swelling

should subside within 2 to 7 days and should be treated with frequent applications of ice.

Gentle cleansing is OK, but one should avoid exposure to sun.

Rare

8. LongTerm Hair Removal the Silk’n

Freedom Way

A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24 months. During this time multiple Freedom sessions may

be required in order to achieve permanent results.

The eciency of hair removal varies from person to person according to body area, hair color, and how

Silk’n Freedom is used.

Typical Silk’n Freedom hair removal plan during a full hair growth cycle:

Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart

Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart

Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.

Please note: Hair removal by lasers or intense pulse light sources can cause increased 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.

1. Individual response depends on hair type as well as biological factors that may aect hair growth patterns. Some users may

respond quicker or slower than the average number of treatments.

2. One cannot expect permanent results in a single or even double treatment sessions. The duration of the resting period for hair

follicles also depends on the body area.

9. Get started!

1. Remove Silk’n Freedom HAIR REMOVAL UNIT and other components from box.

2. Verify that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE is inserted properly at the tip of the device and that

it is not damaged.

3. Plug the ADAPTOR cord into the Silk’n Freedom HAIR REMOVAL UNIT socket.

4. Plug the ADAPTOR into an electrical outlet. The STAND BY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on.

Your Silk’n Freedom is now ready to start.

Choose areas to treat that have not had recent exposure to the sun.

5. The skin of the treatment areas should be shaved, clean, dry and free of any powders, antiperspirants

or deodorants. Do not wax, pluck or tweeze the hair out. Shaving is an important step to get the

results you want!

Place the TREATMENT SURFACE on the skin and press the trigger to deliver one pulse. If you

did not experience abnormal discomfort press the + button once and deliver one pulse on a

dierent spot at energy level 2.

Continue testing at increased energy levels until you have reached the highest level that you

feel comfortable with. If within one hour you experience no adverse eects, you can start your

full treatment at that energy level.

Repeat this test for each body part you intend to treat.

9. Set the energy level. If the energy level should be higher than the lowest, press the ENERGY LEVEL

SETTING BUTTONS using the “-“ or “+” to respectively decrease or increase the energy level, until

the desired energy level is set and represented by 3 energy level indicator lights (For details see

“Energy Level” chapter inside this user manual).

10. Apply the TREATMENT SURFACE to the skin, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. As

soon as the TREATMENT SURFACE is in full contact with the skin, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT

will start blinking.

11. Press the PULSE BUTTON. The device will ﬁrst determine the color of your skin. If the color of the

skin is light enough for safe application, the device will ﬂash a pulse of light onto your skin, and the

READY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn o.

You will see a bright ﬂash of light and simultaneously hear a subtle pop sound, which is a normal noise

for the device. You will feel a mild sensation of warmth and tingling.

Silk’n Freedom will immediately recharge for the next pulse.

After 3.5 seconds the READY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on again.

12. Remove the TREATMENT SURFACE from the treated area of skin.

13. Move the TREATMENT SURFACE to another area of skin. Use the pressure marks the device just

made on your skin to guide you for proper positioning of the next pulse, avoiding both gaps

and overlaps between pulses.

Skin test

6. Press the ON/STBY SWITCH. The POWER ON INDICATOR LIGHT (orange) will turn on and a fan

sound (similar to the sound of a hairdryer) will start and stay on for as long as the device is operated

and occasionally a few minutes after turn-o.

7. Approximately 3.5 seconds after pressing the ON/ STBY SWITCH, the READY INDICATOR LIGHT

(green) will turn on. The device is then ready for you to trigger the ﬁrst pulse at the lowest energy level.

8. If this is your ﬁrst treatment - Choose the energy level. Freedom oers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the

lowest) to 5 (the highest). To choose the right energy level for your ﬁrst treatment, test each

treatment area separately:

1514

English

Skin coverage

Silk’n Freedom pulses should be administered in rows, starting at one end of each row and

progressing sequentially towards the other end. This technique allows better control of skin

coverage, and helps you avoid treating the same area more than once or overlapping skin areas.

When applied to the skin, the Silk’n Freedom TREATMENT SURFACE is designed to create

temporary pressure marks on the treated area. These visible marks can be used for proper

positioning of the next pulse.

Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

14. Repeat the process until the entire treatment area is covered.

Warning: Do not treat the same area of skin more

than once per hair removal session!

Treating the same area of skin more than once per session increases the likelihood

of adverse eects.

If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!

Energy Level

Energy level determines the intensity of the Silk’n Freedom light pulse delivered to your skin, from the

lowest level (-) to the highest level (+). As energy level increases, so does hair removal results as well

as the risk of possible side eects and complications.

Freedom oers 5 levels of energy from 1 (the lowest) to 5 (the highest), represented by 3 energy

level indicator lights:

Level 1 (lowest) - the left indicator light is steadily lit.

Level 2 - the left indicator light is steadily lit and the central indicator light is blinking.

Level 3 - both left and central indicator lights are steadily lit.

Level 4 - the left and central indicator lights are steadily lit and the right indicator light is blinking.

Level 5 (highest) - all 3 indicator lights are steadily lit.

Whenever Silk’n Freedom is turned on its energy level will automatically be reset to the lowest energy

level. Only one ENERGY LEVEL Indicator Light will be on.

To set the energy level, press the Energy Level Setting Buttons using “-“ or “+” to respectively

decrease or increase the energy level.

The Skin Color Sensor

Light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can result in adverse eects such as burns, blisters, and

skin color changes (hyper- or hypo-pigmentation).

To prevent such misuse, a unique SKIN COLOR SENSOR in Silk’n Freedom measures the treated

skin complexion at the beginning of each session and occasionally during the session. If the SKIN

COLOR SENSOR detects a skin tone that is too dark for Silk’n Freedom application, the device will

automatically stop emitting pulses.

If you see no light pulse and the Skin Tone Warning Indicator Light blinks, this is an indication that

your skin tone, measured by the SKIN COLOR SENSOR, is too dark for safe application. Try using the

device on a dierent body part or contact the Silk’n Freedom support.

Try to avoid overlapping pulses!

Do not treat the same area of skin more than once per hair removal session!

If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!

9.1.What to Expect when treating with Silk’n Freedom?

For many people, using Silk’n Freedom may be their ﬁrst experience with a light-based device designed for home use.

Silk’n Freedom is simple to use, and hair removal sessions go by quickly. During a Silk’n Freedom session it is normal

to experience and feel:

A Fan Noise – The cooling fan in Silk’n Freedom makes noise similar to a hairdryer. This is normal.

A Pop Sound with Each Pulse – When a pulse of HPL™ light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop sound

simultaneously with the ﬂash of light.

1716

English

9.2. After treating with Silk’n Freedom

When Silk’n Freedom session has been completed turn Silk’n Freedom o by pressing the On/Stby Switch. All the

lit indicators will turn o and the STBY INDICATOR LIGHT will turn on (Be sure to remember the last energy level

setting you used, as it will not be restored when turning Silk’n Freedom on again.)

Unplug the ADAPTOR cord from the electrical outlet.

After each hair removal session it is recommended that you clean your Silk’n Freedom device, especially the

Treatment Surface (See: “Cleaning Silk’n Freedom”).

After cleaning, it is recommended to store your Silk’n Freedom device in its original box, and keep it away from

water.

Skin care following hair removal session

Do not expose treated areas of skin to the sun. Be sure to carefully protect the treated

skin with sunscreen, throughout the hair removal period and for at least 2 weeks following

the last Silk’n Freedom session.

10.1. Cleaning Silk’n Freedom

After each hair removal session, it is recommended to clean your Silk’n Freedom device, and especially the Treatment

Surface.

Unplug Silk’n Freedom before cleaning.

Use a dry, clean cloth and a specially formulated cleaner for electronic equipment to gently wipe Silk’n Freedom

surface, and especially the Treatment Surface.

Never immerse Silk’n Freedom or any of its parts in water!

10.2. Replacing the Lamp Cartridge

The Silk’n Freedom DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE can ﬁre a pre-set and limited number of light pulses. Pulse

intensity is determined only according to the energy level setting of the device. There is no decrease of energy during

the usable lifetime of the LAMP CARTRIDGE.

When only 100 light pulses remain in the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE INDICATOR

LIGHT on the CONTROL PANEL will start blinking, indicating that the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE should

soon be replaced.

This device has a cartridge with 300,000 light pulses so replacement cartridges should not be required.

As the number of light pulses in the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE further decreases, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE

INDICATOR LIGHT blinking will grow faster.

Once all the pulses in a DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE have been used, the REPLACE CARTRIDGE INDICATOR

LIGHT will remain steadily on, indicating that further pulses cannot be emitted.

In order to continue the hair removal session, it will now be necessary to replace the DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE.

To replace a DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE:

1. Press the ON/STBY SWITCH to turn Silk’n Freedom to Stby mode.

2. Unplug the power adaptor from the electrical outlet.

3. Grasp the used DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE on both sides, pull it out of the socket and discard with normal trash.

4. Unwrap a new DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE.

5. Push the new DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE gently into place.

Note! After replacing the disposable lamp cartridge with a new one, always set the energy to be one level

lower than your normal setting. Raise the energy level back, only if you do not experience abnormal discomfort

during or after the treatment.

10. Maintenance of Silk’n Freedom

Note: A DISPOSABLE LAMP CARTRIDGE should also be replaced if large spots appear

inside it or if its TREATMENT SURFACE is broken.

Moderate Pressure of the Treatment Surface – This is necessary and helpful for placement of adjacent pulses of

light, and is part of the unique safety feature of Silk’n Freedom.

A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling – During each pulse of light it is normal to feel a mild sensation of warmth

and tingling from the light energy.

Some Mild Red or Pink Color – During and just after your Silk’n Freedom session it is not uncommon to see some

very mild, pink-like color of the skin. This is usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.

However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns stop use of Silk’n Freedom immediately.

contact the Silk’n™ support.
