The Rio Home Laser Hair Removal Kit is a relatively safe and effective way to get rid of unwanted body hair. The Rio system uses a laser beam from a small handheld unit to destroy the hair follicles. The Rio kit differs from other kits by offering two settings-one to pinpoint individual hairs, and the other to cover larger areas.
Trim the hair to be removed to 1 to 3 mm in length before you use the Rio Home Laser Hair Removal Kit.
2
Power the Rio Home Laser Hair Removal Kit by entering the security code. Press the "plus" button on the unit, then the single button, then the "minus" button and then the single button once more. The laser unit will beep twice, which means that it is activated and ready for use.
3
Set the intensity of the laser by first testing a very small patch of skin. Generally, lower settings are designed for people with very fair skin and who are susceptible to sunburns, while the higher settings are reserved for those with darker complexions and a history of tanning easily. If you experience redness or discomfort during this test, lower the intensity of the laser.
4
Wash the treatment area with cool water and soap before you use the Rio Home Laser Hair Removal Kit. Dirty skin could affect the way the laser penetrates the skin.
5
Place the laser gun near your skin and press the laser activation button. You may feel a slight pinprick sensation with thicker hairs. Take care not to go over any one area repeatedly.
6
Apply some aloe vera gel to the area after the treatment is done. You may experience a slight rash or skin irritation for 24 to 48 hours after you use the Rio kit.
7
Use the Rio Home Laser Hair Removal Kit six times, about once a month. Different types of hair have different growing periods, and multiple treatments ensure that you are destroying the hair while the follicles are in an active growing period. After six treatments, all treated areas should be free from hair permanently.
