3 Introducing the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System How does the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System work? Congratulations on the purchase of your new LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System! The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is a new breakthrough product that uses Intense Pulsed Light ( IPL ), to remove unwanted hair at home. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System utilizes the same clinically proven technology as professional dermatologists and salons use, but optimized for personal treatment of smaller areas in the privacy and comfort of your own home. Unlike most at-home hair removal methods, the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System doesn t cut or pull out hair; it actually uses light energy to work below the skin s surface to disable active hairs at the root. You should gradually notice fewer hairs in the treatment area within a few weeks, with results generally improving over time. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is intended for use on: Female Facial Hair (cheeks, sideburns, chin, neck areas, and above the lips) Male and Female Body Hair (underarms, bikini line, legs, arms, stomach and chest). NOTE: the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System isn t for everyone. Please review the Contraindications, Warnings and Precautions (see table of contents) to determine if the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is OK for you to use. Light-based hair removal is a well-established technology that has been in use worldwide for over 15 years. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System uses this technology to flash your skin with an intense pulse of light. The energy in the pulse works under the surface of your skin to target hairs at the root, helping to break the hair growth cycle. Because the energy in the pulse of light targets dark coloring, it works best on darker hair. To avoid targeting (and possibly damaging) dark skin, you should use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System only on light-to-medium skin tones. How Many Treatments are Needed? Individual hairs go through a continuous growth cycle with phases of active growth and phases of rest. Like other laser or light-based treatments, the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System affects only hairs that are in the active growth phase. Your initial regimen should be spread out over 1 month to ensure that you target the most number of active hairs (including those that recently cycled from the resting phase). We recommend that you use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System every other week, over 1 month (for a total of 3 treatments) on each area. If you have redness, blistering or other skin irritation in the treatment area after your first treatment, do not treat. Wait until the skin returns to normal before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System again. If the irritation does not go away with 2-3 days, contact Customer Service (see table of contents) Use the Treatment Record Cards (see table of contents) to help keep track of your treatments. Results aren t immediate, but you should have noticeably fewer hairs within 1 to 2 weeks after you start treatment. During this time, it may look like the hair is still growing, but it is actually being pushed out. You may or may not see these hairs fall out. 4 5

5 Getting to know your LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System Front of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System comes with a replaceable TREATMENT HEAD. At the top of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System s Treatment Head is the FLASH WINDOW, where the light is delivered from. Surrounding the four corners of the Treatment Head are CONTACT SENSORS, which help ensure that the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is flush against the skin, so the light is aimed at the skin. On the front of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is the main console, which contains a DISPLAY (discussed below) and two buttons. You use the Right Button to POWER the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on or off. You use the Left Button to change the ENERGY LEVEL. Back of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System On the back of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is the SKIN TONE TESTER. When you first power on the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, the light will be blinking orange and beeping to indicate that a Skin Tone Test is required. For complete step-by-step instructions on how to test your skin tone, refer to Step 3. Test Your Skin Tone (see table of contents). The FLASH BUTTON must be pressed to deliver a flash to the skin. Most users find it easiest to use their index finger to activate the FLASH BUTTON for most areas. RELEASE TABS are in the front & back of the TREATMENT HEAD if you have used all flashes and need to replace it.

6 What is the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System used for? (Indications) LumaRx is an over-the-counter device intended to provide phototherapeutic light to the body. It is also intended for the removal of unwanted hair by using a selective photothermal treatment. It is also indicated for the removal of unwanted body and/or facial hair in adults with Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-IV. LumaRx is also intended for permanent reduction in unwanted hair. Permanent hair reduction is defined as the longterm, stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing when measured at 6, 9 and 12 months after the completion of a treatment regimen. LumaRx should only be used on LIGHT TO MEDIUM SKIN TONES. LumaRx comes with a built-in SKIN TONE TESTER that is designed to help prevent treating skin that may be too dark. LumaRx is most effective on DARKER HAIR. (Refer to Hair Color Chart.) LumaRx is intended for use on female facial hair on the cheeks, sideburns, chin, neck areas, and above the lips. LumaRx can also be used on male and female body hair below the neck, including underarms, bikini line, leg, arms, chest and stomach. Skin Tone The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is intended for use only on light to medium skin tones. To determine if your Skin Tone is suitable to use with the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, compare your skin in the intended treatment areas with the Skin Tone Chart. If it matches the Light to Medium Skin Tones, you can use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. If your Skin Tone in the intended treatment area matches the Dark Skin Tones below, DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System also has a built-in SKIN TONE TESTER that is designed to help prevent flashing on skin that is too dark for treatment. Test each different area you wish to treat with the Skin Tone Chart and SKIN TONE TESTER before treating. Some areas are darker than others. If you have tanned skin in the intended treatment area, DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System in those areas as your skin may be too dark for treatment. You should wait until your tan has completely faded from any intended treatment area before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. Pale Beige Beige Light Brown Hair Color The light energy targets dark coloring in hair, and therefore works best on DARKER HAIR (black, dark brown, brown or dark blond). DO NOT use the LumaRx Medium Brown Dark Brown Black Black Brown Dark Blond Light Blond Red Mini Hair Removal System on LIGHTER HAIR (light blond, red, grey or white hairs or peach fuzz ). The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will not work on LIGHTER HAIR. Peach Fuzz/ White/Gray

8 Who should not use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System? (Contraindications) Warnings Important Safety Information Read Before Use! The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is not designed for everyone. Please read and consider the information in the following section before use. DO NOT USE the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if you have DARK SKIN. Darker skin may absorb too much light energy which could cause skin swelling, temporary blisters, or could change the color of your skin. Refer to the Skin Tone Chart (see Indications in table of contents) to determine if your Skin Tone is suitable for use with the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. You should test each different area of skin you want to treat. Some areas are darker than others. DO NOT USE the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on TATTOOS, DARK BROWN or BLACK SPOTS (such as dark freckles, birthmarks, moles, or warts), LIPS, NIPPLES, GENITALS or AROUND THE ANUS. These areas have darker skin and may absorb too much light energy which could cause skin swelling, temporary blisters, or could change the color of your skin. DO NOT USE the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System ON OR AROUND EYES, EYEBROWS or EYELASHES. Doing so can cause serious and permanent eye injury. DO NOT USE the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System anywhere on the MALE FACE, HEAD OR NECK. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is a powerful device. As such, it should be used with special attention to safety. Please read all warnings and safety precautions before use and follow them strictly when using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. DO NOT flash in an environment where the emission of light could cause an explosion, such as in the presence of gas, in oxygen rich environments, or near flammable anesthetics. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN! DO NOT leave the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System unattended around children as the cords represent a choking hazard.

DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if you have a known sensitivity to light (photosensitivity) or are taking medications that make your skin more sensitive to light, as the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System may injure your skin or make existing conditions worse

9 Precautions The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is a powerful device. As such it should be used with special attention to safety. Please read all warnings and safety precautions before use and follow them strictly when using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if you have TANNED SKIN in the intended treatment area, as your skin may be too dark and treatment in tanned areas could temporarily cause skin swelling, blisters, or could change the color of your skin. Wait until your tan has faded in the treatment area before treating. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on skin with MAKEUP applied, as treating in those areas could temporarily cause skin swelling, blisters or could change the color of your skin. Make sure to thoroughly clean the intended treatment area before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. DO NOT flash the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on the identical treatment spot multiple times during the same session, as this could temporarily cause skin swelling, blisters, or could change the color of your skin. DO NOT treat any more than once every two weeks, as this will not speed up results, but could increase likelihood of skin swelling, blistering or changing the color of your skin. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on damaged skin, including open wounds, cold sores, sunburns, or areas where you have had a skin peel or other skin resurfacing procedure within the last 6-8 weeks. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on irritated skin, including rashes or swollen skin. These conditions can make the skin more sensitive to the light treatment. Wait for the affected area to heal before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if your skin is sensitive to light. In order to determine if you can use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, perform a test on a small patch of skin and wait 24 hours to determine if there are any adverse reactions before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System more broadly. See steps for testing on a patch of skin (see Step 4, Part A in table of contents). Contact Customer Service (see table of contents) for more information or assistance. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if you are or may be pregnant or are breast-feeding. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System has not been tested on pregnant women. Hormonal changes are common during pregnancy or breast-feeding and could increase skin sensitivity and the risk of skin injury. DO NOT flash the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System against any material other than skin. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for any purpose other than hair removal. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on any area where you may someday want your hair to grow back. The results may be permanent and irreversible. DO NOT cover any part of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System ventilation slots during use, as they help to keep the device cool during operation. Covering the ventilation slots could result in the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System overheating. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System if the box packaging or the device appears damaged or if any part of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is cracked or broken. Doing so could increase the risk of skin or eye injury from the flash lamp. Contact Customer Service for assistance (see table of contents)

10 Precautions Risks Risks DO NOT allow the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System to become damp or wet. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System near bathtubs, showers, basins, or other vessels containing water. Failure to follow these precautions can cause electrocution or electric shock. Contact Customer Service for assistance (see table of contents). DO NOT operate the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System with an unapproved charging cord, or if it has a damaged plug or charging cord. Keep the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System cord away from heated surfaces (such as stoves, fireplaces, radiators or furnaces). Failure to follow these precautions can cause electrocution or electric shock. Contact Customer Service for assistance (see table of contents). DO NOT open the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System (except to replace the replaceable TREATMENT HEAD) or attempt to repair your LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System as it contains no user-serviceable parts. Trying to open the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System may also damage the device and will void your warranty. Please contact Customer Service (see table of contents) if you have a broken or damaged device. Failure to follow these precautions can cause electrocution or electric shock. Hair removal by lasers or intense pulsed light (IPL) can cause increased hair growth in some individuals. If you ve had professional or clinical or self-administered laser or IPL or electrolysis hair removal treatments, wait at least 6 months before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. If you ve waxed, plucked or epilated hair in the treatment area, wait at least 6 weeks before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. The device uses the hair under your skin to disable your hair at the root, so it is not effective if the hair has been pulled out. It is important to use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System properly. Make sure that you follow all the warnings (see table of contents), and that you do not use the device if it is not right for you. If you do not understand any of the warnings, or have any questions, please contact Customer Service (see table of contents). If you use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System as directed, the risks are low: Your skin may become red within 24 hours after treatment. This redness generally clears up within a few hours. If the redness does not go away within 2 3 days, contact Customer Service (see table of contents). You may develop temporary blisters, although these are unlikely for people with lighter skin tones. If you do develop a blister, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, clean the blister and cover it with a bandage and change daily to help prevent the blister from becoming infected. If you need more information, contact Customer Service (see table of contents). In rare cases, some users might see an increase in the number of hairs growing. This increase is usually temporary and due to hair growth cycles. However, if after beginning use of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System you believe that the number of hairs regrowing in the treated area has increased since you started treatment, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and contact Customer Service (see table of contents). The following symptoms affected no participants in the clinical study, but have been reported with other hair-removal lasers or IPL devices: Skin swelling, especially around the hair follicle where you may notice the skin is slightly higher than surrounding areas. If the swelling doesn t go away within 2 3 days, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and contact Customer Service (see table of contents)

11 Risks What to expect during and after treatment Skin discoloration. If you notice that your Skin Tone in the treatment area has changed, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and contact Customer Service (see table of contents). Eye Injury. Flashing any laser or IPL device near or around the eyes could cause serious and permanent eye injury. This is very unlikely as long as the device is used as indicated. If you have a history of cold sores in the intended treatment area, you may experience a recurrence of a cold sore after using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System in those areas. During Treatment For many people, using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is their first experience with a light-based device. Here are some things to expect during treatment: A Flash of Light: The flash of light that you see is only part of the light produced by the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and should not be harmful to your eyes. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System Contact Sensors help ensure that most of the light is directed into the skin. The remaining visible light should not be harmful to the eyes, and special eye protection is not needed as long as you follow the directions for using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System in this manual. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System should NOT be used on or around the eyes, eyelashes or eyebrows. A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling: It is normal to feel a warm and tingling sensation with each flash. Many people describe this sensation to be like a rubber band lightly snapped against the skin. However, sensations vary by person and treatment area. If the sensation is too intense or painful, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and contact Customer Service before using again. Immediately After the First Treatment Visible changes to the hair are unlikely at this point. During and just after your LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System session, it is not uncommon to see some very mild redness, mostly around the hairs themselves. This is normal and typically clears up within a few hours. If the redness does not go away within 2 days, contact Customer Service (see table of contents). If you have redness, blistering or other skin irritation in the treatment area, DO NOT perform treatment. Wait until the skin returns to normal before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System again. If the irritation does not go away within 3 days, contact Customer Service

12 What to expect during and after treatment Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment One to Two Weeks after the First Treatment Hairs in the treated area will begin to fall out gradually, but it is unlikely you will notice significant reduction in hair at this stage. Make sure to complete the full treatment schedule to ensure you hit all hairs in the growth phase in the targeted area. Two Weeks after the Third Treatment You should see a noticeable reduction in hairs in the treated area. Also, any new hair growth should be lighter and finer. At this point, additional treatments on the same area should only be done as needed to target hairs that have recently entered the active cycle. Wait two weeks between any further treatments. Otherwise you only need to use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for occasional touch-ups, where necessary, or to treat another area. Once you ve become familiar with the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and read all the information on the preceding pages, including the WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS, you re ready to use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. This section explains step-by-step how to operate the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. Read this entire section carefully before you start treatment. Then refer back to it later as you follow the steps. Before using your LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for the first time, we recommend that you fully charge the device (see After Your LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System Treatment in table of contents). NOTE: the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System cannot be operated while it is plugged in or being charged. The first time you use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, you should test it on a small patch of skin (see table of contents). STEP 1: CLEAN, SHAVE, AND DRY Before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, prepare the treatment area by thoroughly Cleaning, Shaving and Drying the intended treatment area. It is important that you remove any makeup from the treatment area. Removing surface hair and cleaning the skin helps to minimize the sensation felt from the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System flashes and allows the energy to penetrate to the hair root. Because the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System works below the skin, the device is still effective even if hairs are not clearly visible

13 Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment STEP 2: TURN ON the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System Unplug the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System from the charger. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will not operate when it is plugged in. Press the POWER Button (right button on the front of the device) to turn the power on. To turn the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System off, press and hold the right button for at least 2 seconds. STEP 3: TEST YOUR SKIN TONE Each time you turn the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on, you will be prompted to test your skin tone with the SKIN TONE TESTER. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will play a melody to remind you to test, and you will see the animated image to the right on the DISPLAY. NOTE: Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on darker skin tones can result in damage to the skin (such as burns, blisters or skin discoloration). To help protect against such damage, the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System requires that you test your skin tone before every use. Since some skin areas are darker than others, test each different area you want to treat. DO NOT use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on tanned skin. Even if your natural skin tone is light, tanning makes it darker potentially too dark for treatment. With tanned skin, wait until the tan has completely faded before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on that area. Always use the SKIN TONE TESTER to determine if your Skin is too dark to treat with the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System by placing the SKIN TONE TESTER on the area to be treated. Make sure your skin in this area is clean and dry, and shave if it is necessary to be sure it is free of hair. TESTING SKIN TONE (REPEAT FOR EVERY AREA YOU INTEND TO TREAT) A. Locate the SKIN TONE TESTER The SKIN TONE TESTER is the blinking orange light on the back of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. Press right button to power up the device. Device must be unlocked with SKIN TONE TESTER. Turn device over to test. SKIN TONE TESTER will be blinking ORANGE when it is ready to test. Place skin in intended treatment area directly on light to test

14 Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment B. Skin Tone Test: Place SKIN TONE TESTER firmly against skin in intended treatment area (cheek in the below photo) and hold for 2 seconds. NOTE: the blinking orange light MUST be touching skin for a proper reading. The reading will take place automatically. Before Skin Tone Test: Light is blinking orange and the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is beeping C. Is skin suitable for treatment? SOLID ORANGE LIGHT & BUZZ = SKIN MAY BE TOO DARK If the light is solid ORANGE and the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System BUZZES, your skin in that area may be too dark for treatment. If your Skin Tone is not suitable for treatment, the sensor light will turn solid orange and the device will buzz once. After 5 seconds, you can re-try the Skin Tone Test, starting at Step 1, above. SOLID ORANGE LIGHT and BUZZ = Skin Tone may be too dark in that area for treatment. You can re-try another area. SOLID GREEN LIGHT & BEEP = SKIN TONE IS OK If your skin tone is OK for treatment, the sensor light will turn green and a high-pitched BEEP BEEP will sound, indicating that the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is ready for treatment. The display will change to show status information. NOTE: If you believe your skin is suitable based on the Skin Tone chart (see Indications in table of contents), but the SKIN TONE TESTER will not enable the device, contact Customer Service (see table of contents). NOTES: After 5 minutes, the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will automatically Power Off. If you Power the device on again, you will need to use the SKIN TONE TESTER to use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. Some areas of the skin are darker than others. You must use the SKIN TONE TESTER on each different area you want to treat. If you feel the SKIN TONE TESTER has not made a proper reading, you may try again after 5 seconds. If you believe your skin is suitable based on the Skin Tone chart on page 10 but the SKIN TONE TESTER will not enable the device, contact Customer Service. If you have tanned skin in the intended treatment area, DO NOT use the the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System in those areas as your skin may be too dark for treatment. You should wait until your tan has completely faded from any intended treatment area before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. SOLID GREEN LIGHT and BEEP BEEP = Skin Tone is OK to treat in that area. You should proceed to the next step

15 Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment STEP 4: CHOOSE ENERGY LEVEL As with any new skin care product, we recommend testing the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on a patch of skin before your first full treatment or before treating a new area. A. TESTING the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System ON A SMALL PATCH OF SKIN Testing the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System helps you determine the appropriate Energy Level to use the first time you use the device, or for each new treatment area. Higher Energy Levels are more effective at removing hair, but may be less comfortable. To get the best results with the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System, you should use the highest Energy Level setting that s comfortable and does not cause an adverse skin reaction. To test the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on a new treatment area, follow these steps: 1. Start at Energy Level 1. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System defaults to Energy Level 1 (one bar), which is where you should start the Patch of Skin Test. 2. Flash your Skin (see table of contents). With the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System at Energy Level 1, treat your skin with one single flash by firmly placing the flash window flat against skin (you should hear a BEEP BEEP and the SKIN TONE TESTER light should be GREEN). Press the FLASH BUTTON to deliver a flash. Mild to moderate discomfort is normal. If you feel more than moderate pain, stop using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System immediately and call Customer Service (see table of contents) for help. If a flash delivered at Energy Level 1 feels tolerable, press the ENERGY LEVEL button once to change to Energy Level 2. Move the device to a different spot and flash the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System one more time. Repeat this process until you find the setting that feels right for you. Wait 24 hours and then look at the test area. If the skin appears normal, proceed with your first full treatment at that setting. Record this level in your Treatment Card (see table of contents). If you notice blistering, burns, changes in your Skin Tone, or any other side effects, or if you are not sure about the outcome of the test, DO NOT USE the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System and contact Customer Service (see table of contents). Repeat the test if you decide to try the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System on a different part of the face, or if your skin tone has changed

16 Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment B. CHANGING ENERGY LEVELS Energy Level Bars indicate the intensity of the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System light pulse delivered to your skin, from the lowest level (Level 1, or one bar) to the highest level (Level 3, or three bars). Higher levels improve hair removal results, but may be less comfortable. To get the best results, you should use the highest setting that s comfortable and that does not cause an adverse skin reaction (based on Patch of Skin Test, see table of contents). There are 3 energy settings on the the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. When the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is turned on, the device defaults to the lowest energy level, Level 1 (one bar). To change the Energy Level, press the ENERGY LEVEL BUTTON (the left button below the Display). Once the energy level has reached level 3, pressing the ENERGY LEVEL BUTTON will return the device to energy level 1. The number of ENERGY LEVEL BARS will coincide with the change in energy level. Energy Level Press Energy Level Button Energy Level Display: The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System defaults to Level 1 upon start-up Pressing Energy Level button once increases to Energy Level 2. Pressing Energy Level button twice increases to Energy Level 3. Pressing one more time will cycle back to Energy Level 1. After reaching Level 3, pressing the ENERGY LEVEL BUTTON again resets the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System to Energy Level ENERGY LEVEL BARS and ENERGY LEVEL BUTTON 30 31

17 Using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System for treatment STEP 5: FLASH YOUR SKIN After testing skin tone and setting the desired Energy Level, you are ready to use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System to treat your skin. A. LOCATE FLASH WINDOW AND CONTACT SENSORS The FLASH WINDOW has four CONTACT SENSORS that surround it (the CONTACT SENSORS are embedded in the treatment head and are not visible). All of the CONTACT SENSORS must be touching skin for the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System to flash. CONTACT SENSORS B. Firmly press FLASH WINDOW against skin Carefully, but firmly place the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System FLASH WINDOW directly on the treatment area, making sure the skin is spread evenly and smoothly. For example, if you are treating your lip area, stretch your top lip over your teeth to make it as smooth as possible. The light will be SOLID GREEN if contact sensors are touching skin. If ALL CONTACT SENSORS are NOT in full contact with the skin and you attempt to press the FLASH BUTTON, the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will BUZZ twice and will not emit a flash. Double check that the contact sensors are in full contact with the skin. Try pressing the FLASH WINDOW more firmly against skin. If the CONTACT SENSORS are in full contact with the skin, you should hear a CHIRP sound, and the LED on the back of the device will be SOLID GREEN, indicating the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System is ready to flash. The LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System will deliver a flash if you press the FLASH BUTTON (without losing contact with skin). ALL CONTACT SENSORS are NOT flush against skin. The device will BUZZ if you press the FLASH BUTTON and will NOT flash. Contact Sensors must be in full contact with the skin. ALL CONTACT SENSORS ARE flush against the skin.

We recommend that you use the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System For Body Sites For a typical 1 by 2 treatment area, you should use 10 flashes once a week every other week (for a total of 3 treatments) on each area.

OTHER TREATMENT TIPS Perform your treatments at night before going to bed, so that any lingering redness will most likely disappear by morning. If you ve waxed hair in the treatment area, wait 6 weeks before using the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System. The device uses the hair under your skin to disable your hair at the root, so it is not effective if the hair has been pulled out. Shave immediately before treating the area. Doing this will let you use a higher Energy Level, because there will be less hair to heat up and the treatment will sting less. How well you shave will make a big difference in how the treatment feels (see table of contents). Periodically, if the device gets too hot, the Hourglass icon will flash and the unit will beep. Wait for a few minutes to allow the LumaRx Mini Hair Removal System to cool down.
