How do I clean and sanitise my Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex 9-030 3D Epilator after use?

Like other epilators from Braun, this Silk-épil 9 Flex model is easy to maintain. As a fully waterproof product, you can simply rinse it off in clean water after each epilation session. Then, all you need to do is to leave it somewhere where it can aerate and dry out. If any hairs remain on the epilator or its attachments and accessories, then you can easily remove them using the supplied cleaning brush before stowing your Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex in its pouch for safekeeping. What could be simpler?

Can I use numbing creams or gels with Braun Silk-épil Series 9 Flex 9-030 3D Epilator to minimise discomfort?

You don't need to numb your skin prior to epilation with a Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex 9-030 3D Epilator. The sensation you will is virtually pain-free thanks to the MicroGrip™ technology that's built into this 3D Braun epilator Silk-épil 9 Flex which removes hair swiftly and effectively with each stroke. For the best results from any Silk-épil 9 Flex wet and dry models, including the 9-030 3D, we recommend epilating after your skin has been exposed to warm water in the shower or the bath. This can help to minimise the sensation you may feel when using any epilator for hair removal.

What is the average lifespan of the Braun Silk-épil Series 9 Flex 9-030 3D Epilator and when should I consider replacing it for continued effectiveness?

Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex epilators are built to last. Offering up to four weeks of smooth skin following each at-home epilation session, you can register your product with Braun for up to five years of extended warranty. However, this product, including the Braun epilator's flexible head, is likely to last much longer than this, providing many more years of smoothly epilated skin.

Does this 3D Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex epilator come with different speed settings and how does the speed affect the hair removal process?

The 9-030 Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex epilator has two operational modes that regulate the speed of the product's 40 MicroGrip tweezers. You can use it in power mode for fast and effective hair removal which, along with the 9-030's wide head, means that plenty of hair will be removed with each stroke, perfect for your legs and arms, for example. If you're using your Silk-épil 9 Flex for more sensitive body parts, such as the armpits, then you might prefer to use it in gentle mode. This slows down the rate at which the tweezers function for a mellower epilation experience. Please note that the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex 9-030 3D Epilator is not designed for both body and face hair removal for women. If you would like a product to use on your face to go alongside your Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex, then why not check out the Braun facial epilator range?
