Philips SC1996, User Manual

Tip: To achieve optimal results on your upper lip, chin and cheeks, stand in front
of a mirror to get a good view of the area to be treated and the ‘ready to flash’
light.
Tip: Because of the contours of the jaw, it may be difficult to bring the
integrated safety system into full contact with the skin and to release a flash.
Put your tongue between your teeth and upper lip or puff up your cheeks to
make this easier.
Tip: The reflected light does not harm your eyes. If the scattered light is
unpleasant, close your eyes when you release a flash.
