exposure after treatment’ above.

Note: For more details on unwanted skin reactions, see chapter ‘Using the

appliance’, section ‘Possible side effects and skin reactions’.

using the appliance

Check the recommended light intensities table in chapter ‘Preparing for

use’, section ‘Setting the light intensity’ to determine which light intensities

are most suitable for your skin and body hair colour. Use the appliance in

a well-lit room; this reduces the perceived brightness of the flash. Shave

the area you intend to treat before you use the appliance (see chapter

‘Preparing for use’, section ‘Preparing treatment areas’).
If the treatment becomes intolerably painful at any point in time, reduce

the light intensity setting until the treatment is comfortable again. If you

notice skin reactions stronger than slight redness, stop the treatment

immediately and read section ‘Possible side effects and skin reactions’ in

this chapter.

body areas below the neck (for exceptions, see chapter ‘Important’, section

‘Contraindications’). The body attachment can cover an area of 4cm² and

Do not use the body attachment on the face.

- Precision attachment

The precision attachment includes an additional integrated light filter and
