Philips Lumea Épilateur à lumière intense pulsée - Manuel (Page 20)

In addition, burns or black spots that appear
on the light exit window and attachment due
to contamination can cause the treatment to
become painful or cause skin reactions like
redness and discolouration.
2 Clean your skin and make sure it is hair-free,
entirely dry and free from oily substances
(e.g. present in cosmetic products like
deodorants, lotions, perfumes, tanning creams
and sunscreens).
3 Check the appliance, especially the light
exit window and the body attachment for
trapped hair, dust and fibres. If you see any
contamination, clean the appliance according
to the instructions in chapter ‘Cleaning and
maintenance’.
Notes:
- If shaving causes wounds or lesions, your skin may
be more sensitive and the light treatment might
feel uncomfortable sometimes.
- Once the hairs stop growing back - which usually
happens after 6-7 treatments - you no longer have
to shave before you use the appliance.
setting the light intensity
Philips Lumea for men is an appliance developed
for home use and therefore not comparable with
professional light-based appliances with respect
to pain sensation. Pulses of light delivered by
Philips Lumea for men are gentler than those from
professional appliances and therefore you can expect
a convenient and effective treatment.
Adjust the light intensity to your skin and body hair
colour and to a level you find comfortable.
