Skin test
Using your Philips Lumea
Placing and removing
Selecting the right light intensity
When you use Lumea for the first time or after recent tanning, perform a skin
test on each area to be treated. The skin test is necessary to check your
skin's reaction to the treatment and to determine the correct light intensity
setting for each body area.
1 Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
2 Switch on the device. Make sure you select setting 1.
3 Put the device against your skin and press the flash button to release a
flash.
4 Slide the device over the skin to the next area to be treated.
5 Increase the setting by one level, apply a flash and slide the device to the
next area. Repeat this for all levels within the recommended range for
your skin type.
6 After the skin test, wait 24 hours and check your skin for any reaction. If
your skin shows reactions, choose the highest setting that did not result
in any skin reaction for subsequent use. The skin test should be
performed in all the areas you want to treat.
To place the attachment, simply snap it onto the light exit window.
To remove the attachment, pull it off the light exit window.
Lumea provides 5 different light intensities. Depending on your skin type
and the light intensity level you find comfortable, you can select the right
light intensity setting.
