English Before you use your Lumea Prestige Pretreating your skin Before you use Lumea, you should pretreat your skin by removing hairs on the surface of your skin. This allows the light to be absorbed by the hair parts below the skin surface to ensure effective treatment. You can either shave, short-trim, epilate or wax.

Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
