How does hair removal with elōs work?
Hair follicles are precisely targeted using the unique elōs
combination of bi-polar radio frequency and light energies. elōs
penetrates deep into the dermis, heating and treating the follicle with
maximum effectiveness, for long lasting hair removal.
Are any preparations required prior to treatment?
Hair should be shaved or epilated prior to treatment! One of the biggest advantages with mē is that it has attachments available that can acheive these functions simultaneously with the elōs process. As mē passes over the skin surface, hair can be
simultaneously removed by the permanent solution (elōs) and the epilator or shaver. The epilator and shaver attachments are available on our site.
When can I expect to see results?
Generally speaking, you should notice areas of non-growing hair after 3 to 4 weeks. To ensure permanent hair reduction results (89% hair reduction after 4
treatments) - you must follow the full recommended protocol of 4
treatments, with intervals of 2 weeks (please refer to user manual). In
some cases, more than 4 treatments may be required, as physiological
reaction varies from person to person. After the first 4 treatments you
can treat your desired area only as hair appears according to
recommended treatment times. As you progress – you will notice longer
and longer intervals between these touch up treatments. If you are using the epilator or shaver attachments, your skin will appear smooth and hair free immediately
following treatment
What happens if I didn’t treat the first 4 treatments every 2 weeks according to protocol?
Our protocol has been clinically proven by our team of scientists in
clinical trials supervised by elōs physicians to promise the
best results and your quickest way to permanently smooth skin. If used
less often than every 2 weeks results may vary. It's never too late to
get back to the suggested protocol - perform treatments in 2 week
intervals until hair growth reduction is achieved (if a long break was
taken it is recommended to restart the protocol). Once hair re-growth is
permanently reduced use the mē for touch-ups as needed.
I used mē last week and still see hair… why would this happen?
This may sometimes appear as hair can be growing up to two weeks after
your last treatment as the hair shaft is cast out from the skin. You
will be surprised to see that it will actually fall out naturally within two to 3 weeks of treatment. It’s
also possible that some of your hair is still growing because it wasn’t
affected by the treatment as hair grows in cycles and much of it is in dormancy at any given time.
Is it safe?
Treatment with mē is the safest at-home hair removal system. elōs technology is a unique combination of RF and IPL. Using gentle
pulses of two targeted energies enables better results that can be
achieved the highest level of
safety and comfort. You will be able to return to normal activities immediately after
treatment. elōs technology offers superior results with the highest
level of comfort and safety for the widest range of skin and hair
colors.
Can I use mē anywhere on my body?
At this time we recommend that mē can safely be used for hair removal treatment anywhere below the
neck. Typically it is used to remove hair on the arms, legs, armpits,
bikini area, legs, chest, abdomen and back. Remember to read the user
guide before using the mē.
How do I select the right elōs level?
To avoid unnecessary skin reactions, make sure you check the treatable
skin types table before using mē (please refer to the user guide) and
quick reference guide. If the treatment feels uncomfortable, reduce the
elōs level.
Is mē for men too?
Yes! mē is intended for safe and effective use on both men and women.
Does using mē hurt?
No. Given that the correct elōs level was chosen according to your skin
tone and the instructions were followed, using mē should NOT be painful.
Sometimes, a sensation of warmness or tickle may be felt. To get
accustomed to elōs energy, we advise that you make test flashes, using
the lowest recommended elōs level on any part of your body below the
neck. Once you are comfortable with this you can increase the elōs
intensity setting.
Adding the epilator accessory to your device might add a small effect
of prickling similar to other epilators in the market.
