Joanna,
Since you do need your epilator to be wired for 220 volts in Europe, as you said, you really should try to purchase a used epilator in Europe or you purchase brand new epilator from Jean-Louis so he can re-wire it and ship it to you. I just talked to Jean-Louis and he said at the present time, he has no pre-owned Senior model’s and above for sale and it is rare to see a Platinum or Pure for resale. So, the wiring part keeps you local, unless you purchase brand new.
