6 Press the flash button to release a flash. You should feel a warm
sensation because of the flash.
Note:
The light produced by the device is harmless to your eyes. It is not
necessary to wear goggles during use. Use the device in a well-lit
room
so that the light is less glaring to your eyes.
7 Place the device on the next area to be treated. After each flash, it takes
up to 3.5 seconds until the device is ready to flash again. You can release
a flash when the 'ready to flash' light lights up again.
8
To make sure that you have treated all areas, release the flashes close to
each other. Effective light only comes out of the light exit window,
therefore there should be some overlap.
However, make sure you flash
the same area only once. Flashing the same area twice doesn't improve
the effectiveness of the treatment, but increases the risk of skin reactions.
9
When you have finished the treatment, press and hold the on/off button
for 2 seconds to switch off the device.
Stamp & Flash
The Stamp & Flash mode is ideal to treat small or curvy areas like knees and
underarms. Simply press and release the flash button to release a single
flash.
Recommended treatment schedule
Initial phase
For the first 4 to 5 treatments, we advise you to use Philips Lumea once
every two weeks to ensure that all hairs are treated.
Touch-up phase
After the initial treatment phase (4-5 treatments), we recommend touch-ups
every 4 to 8 weeks,
when you see hairs growing back. This is to maintain
results and enjoy smooth skin for months. The time between treatments
may vary based on your individual hair regrowth and also across different
body areas.
