Before you use your Lumea
Pretreating your skin
Intentionally exposing your skin to natural or artificial sunlight, with the aim
of developing a tan influences the sensitivity and color of your skin.
Therefore the following is important:
- After each treatment, wait at least 24 hours before tanning. Even after 24
hours, make sure that the treated skin does not show any redness from
the treatment anymore. Use a sunblock SPF 50+ on the treated areas in
the 48 hours after treatment when exposing your skin to the sun. After
this period, you can use your regular sunblock.
- After tanning, wait at least 48 hours before you use Lumea. Perform a
skin test 48 hours after tanning to determine the appropriate light
intensity setting.
- Do not use Lumea on sunburned body areas.
Note: Occasional and indirect sun exposure does not qualify as tanning.
If you have used an artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan has
disappeared completely before you use the device.
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 effective treatment. You can either
shave, short-trim, epilate or wax. Do not use depilatory creams, as
chemicals may cause skin reactions.
If you chose 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: 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.
