Overview
Proper maintenance helps keep your Ulike IPL Hair Removal Device clean, safe, and ready for use. Regular care also helps maintain your hair removal results after the initial treatment period.
Cleaning the Device
Please clean the device regularly, especially the sapphire treatment window and air vents.
- Turn off and unplug the device before cleaning.
- Use a soft, dry cloth to gently wipe the device body.
- Clean the sapphire treatment window gently to remove dust, hair residue, or skincare product residue.
- Use a soft brush or dry cloth to clear dust from the air inlet and outlet.
- Do not rinse the device under water.
- Do not use the device in the shower or bathroom.
- Do not use harsh cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials.
Make sure the device is completely dry before storing or using it again.
Storage Tips
Store the device properly when not in use.
- Keep the device in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid direct sunlight, high temperature, or humid environments.
- Keep the device away from water.
- Do not place heavy objects on top of the device or cable.
- Avoid bending or tightly wrapping the power cord.
- Store the device and accessories together to prevent loss or damage.
Regular Safety Checks
Before each use, take a quick look at the device to make sure it is in good condition.
Check whether:
- The sapphire treatment window is clean and not cracked.
- The power cord is not damaged.
- The plug and adapter are not loose, burned, or visibly damaged.
- The air inlet and outlet are not blocked.
- The device turns on normally.
- The fan runs normally during use.
If you notice cracks, burn marks, unusual smells, smoke, sparks, or damaged parts, stop using the device.
Maintaining Your Results
IPL results require ongoing maintenance. If hair growth returns after stopping treatments, this can be normal and does not mean the device is not working.
After the initial treatment period, you can maintain your results with occasional touch-up sessions based on your hair growth.
If hair starts growing back more noticeably, you can restart a short treatment routine:
- Restart with a short treatment cycle
Treat the area for 2–4 sessions, around once every two weeks, to target reactivated hair follicles. - Switch back to maintenance
Once hair growth slows again, return to a maintenance routine, such as one treatment every 2–3 months, or adjust based on your actual hair growth.
Details
Your Ulike IPL Hair Removal Device is designed for long-term at-home use. Keeping the device clean, dry, and properly stored helps support stable performance and a better user experience.
For long-term results, occasional maintenance treatments may be needed because IPL helps reduce hair growth over time, but hair growth can vary due to hair cycles, hormones, and individual differences. Regular touch-ups can help keep your skin smooth after the initial treatment phase.
