tanning sessions: how often and how long?
Do not take more than one tanning session a day, over a period of 5 to 10 days.
Take a break of at least 48 hours between the first and the second session.
After this 5 to 10-day course, we advise you to stop tanning for a while.
Approximately one month after a course, your skin will have lost much of its tan. You can then
start a new course.
If you want to keep your tan, do not stop tanning after the course, but continue with one or
two tanning sessions a week.
Whether you choose to stop tanning for a while or whether you continue tanning on a lower
frequency, always keep in mind that you must not exceed the maximum number of tanning
hours.
For this appliance, the maximum is 19 tanning hours (= 1140 minutes) a year.
If you have stopped a course and have not continued with it for a long period, do not proceed
with the remaining number of sessions of this course but start a new course.
Example
Suppose you take a 10-day tanning course, with a 9-minute session on the first day and a 20-
minute session on the nine following days.
The entire course then lasts (1 x 9 minutes) + (9 x 20 minutes) = 189 minutes.
This means you can take 6 of these courses in one year, as 6 x 189 minutes = 1134 minutes.
Of course, the maximum number of tanning hours applies to each separate part or side of the body
that is tanned (e.g. the back or front of the body).
Tip: For a beautiful all-over tan, turn your body slightly during the session so that the sides of your body
are better exposed to the tanning light.
Tip: If your skin feels slightly taut after tanning, you can apply a moisturising cream.
Tip: If you use function ¼ (HP8565/HP8560 only), we advise you to extend the tanning sessions by
approximately 5 minutes. This does not apply to the first tanning session, which must not last longer than
9 minutes.
table
As the table shows, the first session of a tanning course must always last 9 minutes, irrespective
of the sensitivity of the skin.
If you think that the sessions are too long for you (e.g. because your skin feels taut and tender after
the session), we advise you to reduce the length of the sessions by e.g. 5 minutes.
