Example 2: if your phototype indicates a 3-4-5 setting intensity, set the appliance to level 3
for the 1
st
session. If you don’t feel any unpleasantness, you can increase the intensity to
power level 4 for the 2
nd
session. If you don’t feel any unpleasantness, you can increase the
intensity to power level 5 for all the following sessions.
Nevertheless if you feel the slightest pain, reduce the intensity level until the session becomes
comfortable. In this case, it may be necessary to do an extra 1 or 2 sessions to get the best result.
Don’t forget to do a tolerance test by emitting a light pulse on to your skin at least 24
hours before treating at level 1 intensity (the area being flashed must be shaved
beforehand).
5.3. Disposable lamp
The DERMA PERFECT Disposable Lamp has a 1,000 pulse capacity (irrespective of the intensity
level used).
The intensity of the pulses is determined only by the setting of the power level of the appliance.
There is no drop in energy level throughout the whole lifespan of the lamp. When this lamp has
reached 95% of its lifespan, the LED which indicates the condition of the Lamp will start
flashing on the control panel to warn you that the lamp soon needs to be replaced. This flashing
will slow down as the lamp reaches the end of its life.
Once the disposable lamp has emitted 1,000 pulses, the LED which indicates the condition of
the Lamp will come on and stay on, warning you that no more pulses are possible. If you want
to continue with the epilation you must replace the disposable Lamp.
