1 Consult the table below to determine which light intensities are
appropriate for your skin and the tone of your skin, the colour of
your body hair and facial hair (if there is no suitable light intensity
for your skin tone/hair colour combination, this is indicated with x
in the table).
Tip: You can put the table in the quick start guide on your skin and compare it
with your skin tone.
Tip: We advise you to store the quick start guide in the pouch for future
reference.
2 Reduce the light intensity if you experience any pain or discomfort.
Persons with darker skin run a higher risk of skin irritation because their
skin absorbs more light. Therefore lower intensities are recommended
for persons with darker skin.
The light pulse can feel warm or hot on the skin but should never be
painful. Different body areas may require different light intensities, see
the table below. To prevent skin reactions, see chapter 'Possible side
effects and skin reactions'.
Recommended light intensities (1-5)
In the table below, the numbers indicate the light intensity to be selected
and 'x' means that the appliance is not suitable for you.
Note: The tone of your skin may change, for example because your skin has
tanned. It may then be darker than during the previous treatment. Therefore it
is important that you check the setting to be used before every treatment and
per area. Some areas may be darker than others.
