Traveling with the device

-
The Slide & Flash mode offers convenient use on larger areas like legs. Keep
the flash button pressed while you slide the device over your skin to release
several flashes in a row.
Exposing your skin to natural or artificial sunlight may result with tanning which
influences the sensitivity and color of your skin. Therefore the following is
important:
-
Do not expose your skin to sunlight unprotected when using Lumea. During
the entire IPL treatment period, and especially in the first 48 hours after
treatment, protect your skin from sunlight with clothing or apply sun-
blocking products of not less than SPF50 on the non-covered treatment
areas.
-
Do not start or resume using Lumea within 4 weeks after exposing your skin
to sunlight unprotected (natural sunlight or tanning bed).
-
Do not use Lumea on sunburned body areas.
If you have used artificial tanning (creams, sprays or pills), wait at least 2 weeks
before you use the device. Perform a skin test before starting or resuming your
treatment with Lumea (see 'B Test skin 24 hours before treatment').
When you travel with the device, check with the airplane carrier to confirm that
the device can be carried and/or used on the airplane.
