Using The Appliance; First Use And Skin Test; Subsequent Use - Philips Lumea Plus TT3003 Manual De Instrucciones

Using the appliance

Check the recommended light intensities table in chapter 'Preparing for
use', section '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 chapter
'Preparing for use', section '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.

First use and skin test

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.
Intensity light 1 goes on automatically to indicate that the appliance
,
is switched on at default intensity 1.
3 Apply one flash at the lowest recommended intensity for your skin
type.
4 As long as it feels comfortable (not painful), increase the setting by
one level within the recommended range for your skin type and
apply one flash for each setting. Do not apply more than one flash on
the same spot.
5 After the skin test, wait for 24 hours and check your skin for
any reaction. If the skin shows reactions, choose the highest setting
that did not result in any skin reaction for subsequent use.

Subsequent use

1 Before every treatment, clean the body attachment, light exit
window and metallic frame of Philips Lumea Plus for men.
