Important

To check whether Philips Lumea Precision is suitable for you, see section
'For whom is Philips Lumea Precision not suitable?'.
If your skin has been exposed to natural sunlight or an artificial tanning
method, it may be darker than during the previous treatment. Check the
table above to determine which settings are suitable for your skin colour.

Tanning advice

Sun exposure before treatment
- Wait at least 48 hours after sunbathing before you use the appliance.
Sunbathing can cause skin to darken (tan) and/or can cause sunburn
(reddening of the skin).
- After these 48 hours, check the skin for any remaining sunburn. Do not
use Philips Lumea Precision as long as sunburn persists.
- When the sunburn has disappeared, perform a skin test (see chapter
'Using the appliance', section 'First use') on the area to be treated to
determine the appropriate light intensity.
- If your skin is tanned, perform a skin test (see chapter 'Using the
appliance', section 'First use') on the area to be treated to determine
the appropriate light intensity. A failure to do so causes a risk of
developing skin reactions after treatment with Philips Lumea Precision.
Sun exposure after treatment
- Wait at least 24 hours after treatment before you expose treated
areas to the sun. Even after 24 hours, make sure that the treated skin
does not show any redness from the treatment anymore before you
expose it to the sun.
- Cover treated areas when you go out into the sun or use a sunblock
(SPF 30+) in the two weeks after treatment.
- Exposing treated areas to sunlight without protection immediately
after treatment can increase the risk of adverse side effects and skin
reactions. See chapter 'Using the appliance', section 'Possible side effects
and skin reactions'.
