Make Sure To Switch Off Your Device After Use

There are many cases where people forget to turn off their therapy devices, just like they forget to turn off their lights and fans when they leave their rooms!!

This is an awful practice because it indeed can compromise the maintenance of your device. Not only that, there are chances of your light therapy device to break.

The best way you can look after the maintenance is to use the device only during the therapy sessions. For instance, if your session time is for three to five minutes, then only keep it on for that period of time.

After the session is over, make sure you turn off the device and keep it in its proper place.

Methods of Cleaning Your Therapy Device

It surely can be uncertain among people when it comes to cleaning their light therapy devices, but honestly, it’s something that you simply can’t ignore. Cleanliness is a must if you want the efficiency of your light therapy device.

Just like it’s important to clean your face regularly if you want to decrease the rate of acne on your skin. Similarly, you need to know the ways to clean your therapy device.

But if you do it wrong, then there are chances that the device might lead to electrical problems, and it can be a hazard for you!!

Most importantly, you need to be extra careful, liquids present in the light.

Therefore, if you want to avoid any of such issues regarding the cleaning of your device, read the following suggestions:

1.   Always Unplug or Switch Off Your Device When Cleaning

It’s one of the essential points that you need to remember, especially when cleaning your device.

No matter how secured the manufacturers might claim the product to be, yet it’s an electronic device. So, there are chances of electrocution if you are not careful while cleaning the device.

Therefore, always keep the device turned off while cleaning and ensure that you don’t turn it on unless all the water dries off the device’s body.

2.   Use Blowers To Remove Dust

The LED lights of your device are susceptible and can get damaged if you use any sort of liquid or even damp clothes to clear off the dust.

Instead, always use a blowing device that can easily blow off the specks of dust from the device. These blowers can even be those which you use to clean your keyboards.

But keep in mind that no matter what, don’t use water or any other liquid to clean those LED lights!!

3.   Use Alcohol or Damp Cloth Only To Clean The Exterior of The Device

Yes, you indeed can use any sort of sanitizer or even rubbing alcohols to clean off the dust of your exterior. This can also keep the device from disinfecting bacteria and germs.

Even you can use a damp cloth soaked in water to clean the outer part of your device, as long as it doesn’t enter your LED lights or any other electrical compartments.

4.   Let It Dry

Always give it time to dry after you have cleaned the device with a damp cloth.

It’s a vital precaution that you need to keep in mind because you never know this might lead to an electric shock or even damage your device.

So, follow these cleaning methods, and you’ll see that your device will stay shiny and durable for a long time!!

Sharing Your Device: A Good Idea?

Honestly, I have seen people sharing their devices with others. Yes, it’s alright to share, but there are a few factors that you need to know.

It entirely depends on the area where you are using your device. And also, to what extent you are comfortable sharing will also matter. As it’s your personal product, so the decision is entirely yours!!

For instance, if you are using the device to cure your lips, it won’t be a good idea to share it with anyone else. Just as you won’t share your toothbrush with anyone else, similarly, you shouldn’t choose to share this device if it’s for your lip care.

Although, if you are using this device on your skin to treat acne or wrinkles, you can share it with others (only if you feel comfortable). The reason is the device only gets in contact with the outer surface of your skin.

So, you might choose to share these devices that deal with anti-aging.

And you can also share those devices that you use to cure SAD, insomnia, or depression. The reason is there’s no sort of contact with the device; therefore, you can easily share this device with your friends or family.

I hope this article will provide you with all the necessary information regarding cleaning your light therapy device.
