A: The average period that people start to see long lasting results with continued use is between 4 to 6 weeks. Some people start to notice the effects after just a few beauty treatments. For others, it may take months.

Q: How do I do a no!no! beauty treatment?
A: Simply glide no!no! at a steady pace across your skin in a smooth, steady motion without stopping. Glide it towards your body and/or against hair growth. The blue light should remain steady. This lets you know you are gliding at the proper pace for best results. For example, when applying to your arms, start at your wrist and pull it towards your elbow in one steady, smooth motion, making sure the blue light stays lit. When you finish applying to each section, use the Buffer to exfoliate your skin and remove hair to leave your skin feeling soft and smooth. Buff the applied areas in a firm, circular motion. When you finish buffing, moisturize your skin with no!no! Smooth or other non-astringent cream.

Q: What do I do if no!no! does not start when I glide it on my skin?
A: Reset the unit by turning it off and then on. You may need to hold the button down for a few seconds. Now, begin again, making sure that when you glide, the blue light is continuously on and does not flicker. If it does, slightly increase the gliding speed until the blue light is steady. If it is turned on properly and still does not start, check the Thermicon™ Tip status from the Status Screen. You probably need to replace the Thermicon™ Tip.

Q: Why does it smell so bad?
A: no!no! uses Thermicon™, a heat-based technology that crystalizes the hair. The smell of burning hair lets you know that no!no! is doing its job. As you continue with the no!no! beauty treatment, less hair grows back. The smell will also lessen.

Q: What can I do about the smell?
A: Although the smell of a no! no! beauty treatment can be unpleasant, it is a sign that it is working properly! Try aromatic candles or other air freshener as you no!no! to help cover the smell. Applying no! no! Smooth Cream after use will not only keep skin moisturized and smooth, it will also help to mask the unpleasant burnt hair smell.
