After 2-3 treatments
After 2-3 treatments, you should see a noticeable reduction in hair growth.
However, to effectively treat all hairs, it is important to keep on treating
according to the recommended treatment schedule.
After 4-5 treatments
After 4-5 treatments, you should see a significant reduction of hair growth in
the areas that you treated with Lumea. A reduction of hair density should be
visible as well. Keep on treating with frequent touch-ups (every 4-8
weeks)
to maintain the result.
Tanning advice
Tanning with natural or artificial sunlight
Intentionally exposing your skin to natural or artificial sunlight with the aim
of developing a tan influences the sensitivity and color of your skin.
Therefore the following is important:
- After each treatment, wait at least 48 hours before tanning. Even after 48
hours, make sure that the treated skin does not show any redness from
the treatment anymore.
- In case of exposing your skin to the sun (without tanning intentionally) in
the 48 hours after treatment, use a sunblock SPF 50+ on the treated
areas. After this period, you can use a sunblock SPF 30+ for two weeks.
- After tanning, wait at least 2 weeks before you use Lumea. Perform a skin
test to determine the appropriate light intensity setting.
- Do not use Lumea on sunburned body areas.
Note: Occasional and indirect sun exposure does not qualify as tanning.
Tanning with creams
If you have used an artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan has
disappeared completely before you use the device.
Before you use your Lumea
Pretreating your skin
Before you use Lumea, you should pretreat your skin
by removing hairs on
the surface of your skin. This allows the light to be
absorbed by the hair
parts below the skin surface to ensure effective treatment. You can either
shave, short-trim, epilate or wax. Do not use hair removal creams, as
chemicals may cause skin reactions.
