5.1 Preparing for Treatment

1. Shave, Epilate, or Wax: Ensure the treatment area is free of hair. For best results, shave the area before your first few treatments.

4. Họrọ Mgbakwunye: Choose the appropriate attachment for the body area you intend to treat.

5.2 Performing a Skin Test

Before your first full treatment, and whenever you treat a new body area, perform a skin test:

1. Select a small area of skin near the area you intend to treat.
2. Start with the lowest recommended intensity setting for your skin tone.
3. Apply 1-2 flashes to the test area.
4. Wait 24 hours. If your skin shows no adverse reaction (e.g., redness, irritation, blistering), you can proceed with treatment at that intensity or gradually increase it if comfortable.

7. Skin and Hair Suitability

IPL technology is most effective on lighter skin tones with naturally dark hair. It is not effective on white, grey, light blonde, or red hair due to insufficient melanin. It is also not suitable for very dark skin tones as it may cause skin damage.

Always consult the detailed skin and hair color chart provided in the complete user manual or on the Philips website to determine if Lumea is suitable for you.

8. Recommended Treatment Schedule

Maka nsonaazụ kacha mma, soro usoro ọgwụgwọ na-agbanwe agbanwe:

• Maintenance Phase (After Week 4): After the initial 4-5 treatments, you should see significant hair reduction. Continue with touch-up treatments every 4-8 weeks, or as needed, to maintain results.

Individual results may vary. Do not treat the same area more than once per session.
