Using the Skin Sonic Over Tattoos and IPL-Treated SkinUpdated 9 months ago

The Bleame™ Skin Sonic is thoughtfully crafted with a strong emphasis on safety and gentleness, making it a suitable choice even when used over tattoos, without any risk of harm or fading. What’s more, its versatility allows it to seamlessly complement various hair removal methods, including IPL Laser sessions.

Consider the following essential points to guarantee the most positive and effective experience!



USING THE SKIN SONIC ON TATTOOED SKIN

AVOID FRESH TATTOOS AND IRRITATED SKIN

A fresh tattoo is a wound, so you must treat it as such. Completely avoid using your device on tattoos during the healing process. 

Additionally, refrain from using the Skin Sonic on areas of the skin that are already irritated, broken, or have open wounds. Wait for the skin to heal completely before attempting hair removal in those areas.

CONSIDER TATTOO PLACEMENT 

It's important to consider the tattoo's location and your comfort level before using the Bleame™ Skin Sonic. If your tattoo is situated in an area with dense or coarse hair, it might be preferable to work around the tattooed area to avoid any unnecessary friction that could potentially cause discomfort or irritation. 

BE GENTLE AND MINDFUL 

While using the Skin Sonic over tattoos, be gentle and mindful of your skin. Tattooed skin can be more delicate than regular skin, so it is best to use gentle and controlled movements. 

Moderation is vital. Refrain from applying excessive pressure or making prolonged passes over an area within a short period to prevent any potential discomfort or irritation. Always allow your skin enough time to recover between sessions to keep it healthy and comfortable. 

Remember, everyone's pain threshold and comfort levels differ. If you experience any discomfort while using the Skin Sonic, consider adjusting the pressure or intervals of use to suit your individual needs.

OBSERVE SKIN REACTIONS

Be attentive to your skin's reactions during and after the hair removal process. If you experience any unusual sensations or discomfort, stop using the product and give your skin a chance to rest. Your skin's comfort and well-being should always be a priority.

ENSURE PROPER HANDLING AND USAGE 

When using the Skin Sonic, exercise extra caution due to the rotating nature of the blades. Ensure proper handling and usage to avoid accidental nicks or cuts.

Here’s a tip: To reduce the risk of ingrown hairs, glide the Skin Sonic in the direction of hair growth. This prevents hair from being cut too short or curling back into the skin, minimizing the chances of ingrown hairs.

STAY CONSISTENT WITH AFTERCARE

Following the use of the Skin Sonic, it's crucial to stay consistent with your regular tattoo aftercare routine. This may involve moisturizing the tattooed area and avoiding direct sunlight exposure. 

Steer clear of any products with fragrances, dyes, or alcohol that may cause irritation.

Consistency is key to achieving the best results and maintaining the excellent condition of your skin after hair removal. Take care of your skin in a routine manner.



USING THE SKIN SONIC ON IPL-TREATED SKIN

SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICE AND FOLLOW IT

Before combining any hair removal methods, we strongly advise consulting with a qualified dermatologist or a licensed IPL technician. Their expertise allows them to assess your specific skin type, hair condition, and any underlying skin concerns, enabling them to recommend the most suitable and safe approach for you.

Follow their instructions carefully, particularly specific guidelines on how to integrate the Skin Sonic into your hair removal routine while undergoing IPL Laser sessions. Doing so promotes the best possible results for you.


AVOID USING THE SKIN SONIC BEFORE OR AFTER AN IPL SESSION

Proper timing is crucial when using the Skin Sonic alongside IPL Laser sessions. To prevent potential irritation, it's essential to avoid using the Skin Sonic immediately before or after an IPL Laser session. Allow your skin ample time to recover between treatments for the best results and a comfortable experience.

Always allow a sufficient time gap between IPL Laser sessions and Skin Sonic usage to give your skin time to recover and minimize the risk of overexerting the treated areas.

CONSIDER SENSITIVITY

IPL Laser sessions can make skin more sensitive, so take extra care when using the Skin Sonic in those areas. Your skin's well-being is always a top priority!


LISTEN TO YOUR SKIN 

Pay attention to your skin's feedback. If you notice any signs of irritation or discomfort while using the Skin Sonic in combination with IPL Laser sessions, stop using the device and consult with your skincare professional.



FOR TATTOOED AND TREATED SKIN

PATCH TEST 

Whether you’re planning to use the Skin Sonic on tattooed skin or on areas undergoing IPL Laser treatment, it’s important to perform a patch test first. 


MAKE SURE YOUR SKIN IS HYDRATED

Dehydrated skin can be more susceptible to sensitivity and irritation. For a more comfortable hair removal experience, make sure to keep your skin adequately hydrated. To enhance comfort, try using the Skin Sonic after a bath or shower when your skin is moisturized. Avoid using extremely hot water to minimize the risk of irritation. 

This helps ensure smoother and gentler hair removal.
