DO NOT USE your DERMA PERFECT appliance on sun-tanned skin or on skin which
has recently been exposed to the sun. Doing this can cause severe burns or damage to
the skin. Using the appliance on a skin which has recently been exposed to the sun can
cause side effects such as burns, blisters and changes in its colour (hyper or
hypopigmentation).
Avoid exposing yourself to the sun’s rays in the 4 weeks preceding any treatment using DERMA
PERFECT.
Do not expose the treated areas to the sun. By this we mean exposure of your skin to the sun’s
rays without any protection from direct sunlight for a continuous period of fifteen minutes or
without any protection from indirect sunlight (which you are exposed to if you are close to the
sun but in the shade) for a period of one hour non-stop.
Make sure you protect the skin that has been treated with sun-block of FPS 30 or more, for the
whole treatment period and at least two weeks after the last epilation session.
Please keep the appliance well away from your eyes. It must not be used for
treating facial or neck hair or for hair around the nipples. During treatment of
the other body areas, we strongly recommend that you never stare directly into
the light emitted by DERMA PERFECT.
YOU MUST NOT use DERMA PERFECT in any of the following cases:
•If you are pregnant or if you have recently given birth and in this case not before your periods
return.
•If you are breast-feeding.
•If the skin to be treated is darker than the colour of type 5 skin as shown on the table for
determining the type of skin /body hair on page 2 and 14.
•If you’ve been exposed to the sun or a UV machine in the last 30 days or if you’ve been using
tanning accelerators or preparations and self-tanning lotions and sprays.
•If you have permanent tattoos or make-up on the area to be treated.
•On the face, neck and nipples. On pubic lips, please reduce the intensity to one level below
the intensity corresponding to your phototype.
Keep the appliance well out of the reach of children. Do not use DERMA
PERFECT on children and don’t allow children to use it.
