Before you use your Lumea Prestige

Pretreating your skin

Before you use Lumea, you should pretreat your skin by removing hairs

on the surface of your skin. This allows the light to be absorbed by the hair

parts below the skin surface 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.

If you choose to wax, please wait 24 hours before using Lumea to let your

skin rest. We recommend that you take a shower before the treatment to

ensure that all possible residue of wax has been removed from your skin.

1 Pretreat the areas you intend to treat with Lumea.

2 Clean your skin and make sure it is hair-free, entirely dry and free from

oily substances.

Note: if shaving causes skin irritation, we advise you not to use the device

until skin irritation is resolved.

Skin test

When you use Lumea Prestige for the rst time or after recent tanning,

perform 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 light

intensity setting for each body area.

1 Attach the right attachment for the area you want to treat. See chapter:

'Attachments'.

Note: do not try the device on dicult or sensitive areas (ankle and bony

area).

2 Turn on the device. Make sure you select setting 1.

3 Place the device at a 90° angle on the skin so that the integrated safety

system is in contact with your skin.

The integrated safety system prevents unintentional ashing without skin

contact.

4 Press the ash button to release a ash.

5 Slide the device over the skin to the next area to be treated.

6 Increase the setting by one level, apply a ash and slide the device to

the next area. Repeat this for all levels within the recommended range

for your skin type. See the table in: 'Selecting the right light intensity'.

7 After the skin test, wait 24 hours and check your skin for any reaction. If

your skin shows reactions, choose the highest setting that did not result

in any skin reaction for subsequent use.
