Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first session, shave the areas you intend to treat to ensure the light energy is absorbed effectively by the hair root rather than the hair surface. Download the Lumea app to set up your profile and Body Hair Analyzer. Keep the light-emitting window and attachments clean by wiping them with a dry, lint-free cloth after every use. Always store the device in a cool, dry place and ensure the attachment window is clear of debris to maintain optimal performance. Before full application, perform a patch test on a small area to verify comfort and skin reaction.
