Skin Condition - Philips Lumea SC1994 Manual

Skin condition

Never use the device:
- If you have infections, eczema, burns, inflammation of hair
follicles, open lacerations, abrasions, herpes simplex (cold sores),
wounds or lesions and haematomas in the areas to be treated.
- On irritated (red or cut), sunburned, recently tanned or fake-
tanned skin.
- On the following areas without consulting your doctor first: moles,
freckles, large veins, darker pigmented areas, scars and skin
anomalies. This can result in a burn and a change in skin color,
which makes it potentially harder to identify skin-related diseases.
- On following areas: warts, tattoos or permanent make-up.
Location/areas
Never use the device on the following areas:
- Around the eyes and on or near the eyebrows.
- On the lips, nipples, areolas, labia minora, vagina, anus and the
inside of the nostrils and ears.
- Men must not use the device on the face and neck including all
beard-growing areas, nor on the whole genital area.
- On areas where you use long-lasting deodorants. This can result in
skin reactions.
- Over or near anything artificial like silicone implants, subcutaneous
injection ports (for instance an insulin dispenser) or piercings.
