6.3 cartridge
Skin colour sensor/skin contact sensor
Light area
The beurer SalonPro System cartridge features a built-in skin colour sensor.
Using light-based hair removal on darker skin tones can have adverse consequences, such as burns,
blisters or discolouration of the skin (hyper- or hypopigmentation). To prevent such application errors,
the skin colour sensor in the beurer SalonPro System measures the colour of the treated skin before
each light pulse. If the skin colour sensor detects that the skin is too dark for the application of the
beurer SalonPro System, the device automatically ceases to emit pulses.
If no light pulse can be seen and the indicator lamp is illuminated red, this indicates that the colour of your
skin measured by the skin colour sensor is too dark to perform the treatment safely.
The skin colour sensor not only avoids triggering on skin that is too dark, it also helps you determine
the recommended energy level for your skin tone for suitable skin pigmentations (see chapter 7).
The beurer SalonPro System cartridge also features a skin contact sensor to protect the eyes. The sen-
sor was developed so that no light pulses can be emitted when the applicator is held in the air. If no
light pulse can be seen and the indicator lamp is illuminated orange, this indicates that the light area
on the cartridge does not have sufficient contact with the skin. Test the device on another part of your
body or contact beurer SalonPro System Customer Services.
The beurer SalonPro System cartridge features built-in UV protection, blocking dangerous UV radiation.
