Before you use your Lumea

Pretreating your skin

Skin test
I' you have used an arti'icial tannin' lotion, wait until the arti'icial tan has
disappeared completely be'ore you use the device.
Be'ore you use Lumea, you should pretreat your skin by removin' hairs on
the sur'ace o' your skin. This allows the li'ht to be absorbed by the hair
parts below the skin sur'ace to ensure e''ective treatment. You can either
shave, short-trim, epilate or wax. Do not use depilatory creams, as
chemicals may cause skin reactions.
I' you chose to wax, please wait 24 hours be'ore usin' Lumea to let your
skin rest. We recommend that you take a shower be'ore the treatment to
ensure that all possible residue o' wax has been removed 'rom your skin.
1 Pretreat the areas you intend to treat with Lumea.
2 Clean your skin and make sure it is hair-'ree, entirely dry and 'ree 'rom
oily substances.
Note: Once the hairs stop growing back, which usually happens after
4-5 treatments, you no longer have to pretreat your skin before you use
the device.
When you use Lumea 'or the 'irst time or a'ter recent tannin', per'orm a skin
test on each area to be treated. The skin test is necessary to check your
skin's reaction to the treatment and to determine the correct li'ht intensity
settin' 'or each body area.
1 Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
2 Turn on the device. Make sure you select settin' 1.
3 Put the device a'ainst your skin and press the 'lash button to release a
'lash.
