5. Opsætning og første brug
5.1 Preparing for Treatment
- Shave, Epilate, or Wax: Ensure the treatment area is free of hair. For best results, shave the area before your first few treatments.
- Clean and Dry Skin: The skin must be clean, dry, and free of any lotions, creams, or deodorants.
- Tilslut strøm: Plug the power adapter into the device and then into a wall outlet.
- Vælg vedhæftet fil: 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:
- Select a small area of skin near the area you intend to treat.
- Start with the lowest recommended intensity setting for your skin tone.
- Apply 1-2 flashes to the test area.
- 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.
6. Betjeningsvejledning
6.1 Selecting the Correct Intensity
The Philips Lumea Advanced has 5 adjustable light intensity settings. Refer to the skin tone chart (usually found in the full manual or Philips website) to determine the appropriate setting for your skin tone. Always start with a lower setting and increase gradually if comfortable.
6.2 Treatment Procedure
- Tænd: Press the power button to turn on the device. The fan will start, and the intensity indicator lights will illuminate.
- Juster intensitet: Press the intensity setting button to select your desired level.
- Sted på huden: Place the device's treatment window firmly against your skin. The "Ready" indicator light will illuminate when full skin contact is detected.
- Blitz: Press the flash button. You will see a bright flash of light and feel a warm sensation.
- Move and Repeat: Move the device to an adjacent area of skin, ensuring slight overlap to avoid missing spots. Continue flashing until the entire area has been treated.
- Sluk: After treatment, press and hold the power button to turn off the device.
For larger areas, use the "Slide and Flash" mode by holding down the flash button and sliding the device over your skin. For smaller, curved areas, use the "Stamp and Flash" mode by pressing the flash button for each individual flash.
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
For optimal results, follow a consistent treatment schedule:
- Initial Phase (Weeks 1-4): Treat every two weeks. This helps to target hair in its active growth phase.
- 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.
9. Rengøring og vedligeholdelse
Proper cleaning ensures optimal performance and hygiene of your device:
- Afbryd strømmen: Tag altid enheden ud af stikkontakten før rengøring.
- Lad afkøle: Wait for the device to cool down completely after use.
- Rent behandlingsvindue: Use the provided cleaning cloth to gently wipe the treatment window and the outer surface of the attachments. Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
