Using The Appliance; First Use And Skin Test - Philips TT3003 Bedienungsanleitung

Using the appliance

First use and skin test

Sun exposure after treatment
- Wait at least 24 hours after treatment before you expose treated areas to
the sun. Even after 24 hours, make sure that the treated skin does not
show any redness from the treatment anymore before you expose it to
the sun.
- Cover treated areas when you go out in the sun or use a sun block (SPF
30+) in the two weeks after the treatment.
- Exposing treated areas to the sun immediately after treatment without
protection can increase the risk of adverse side effects and skin reactions
(see 'Possible side effects and skin reactions').
Tanning with artificial light
- Follow the instructions in 'Sun exposure before treatment' and 'Sun
exposure after treatment' above.
Tanning with creams
- If you have used artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan has
fully disappeared before you use Philips Lumea Plus for men.
Check the recommended light intensities table (see 'Setting the light
intensity') to determine which light intensities are most suitable for your skin
and body hair colour. Use the appliance in a well-lit room; this reduces the
perceived brightness of the flash. Shave the area you intend to treat before
you use the appliance (see 'Preparing treatment areas').
If the treatment becomes intolerably painful at any point in time,
reduce the light intensity setting until the treatment is
comfortable again. If you notice skin reactions stronger than
slight redness, stop the treatment immediately and read section
'Possible side effects and skin reactions' in this chapter.

When you use the appliance for the first time, we advise you to perform a
skin test on the area to be treated to check your skin's reaction to the
treatment and to get accustomed to light-based treatment.
1 Choose an area close to the intended treatment area.
2 Press the on/off button to switch on the appliance.
