IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION -
Read Before Use!
Philips Lumea Comfort is not designed for everyone.
Please read and consider the information in the
following section before use. For further information

If you are unsure Philips Lumea Comfort

physician or dermatologist.
DO NOT USE Philips Lumea Comfort if you
have a naturally dark skin tone!
Philips Lumea Comfort removes unwanted hair by
selectively addressing hair pigment. Varied quantities
of pigment also exist in the surrounding tissue
of skin. The quantity of pigment in a particular
person's skin, which is manifested by their skin tone,
determines the degree of risk they are exposed to
when they use this device.
Treating dark skin tones with Philips Lumea Comfort
can result in adverse effects such as burns, blisters,
and skin tone changes (hyperpigmentation or
hypopigmentation).
- DO NOT USE Philips Lumea Comfort on
naturally dark skin tones!
A unique skin tone sensor is incorporated in Philips
Lumea Comfort. It measures the tone of the skin
to be treated at the beginning of each session and
occasionally during the session. This skin tone sensor
ensures that a flash will be emitted only on suitable
skin tones.
