Hello, can the use of a UV nail lamp and the light that falls on the hand with the Implanon NXT contraceptive implant affect its effectiveness?

For @Ola: If the light is not directed directly to the implant - there are no contraindications to the use of such a lamp. If, on the other hand, the light is directed directly at the implant, then the manufacturer gives "Led lamp irradiation, solarium or free tanning I send information that no tests have been conducted to assess the effectiveness and safety of the implant in these conditions. We are not able to provide information on whether these circumstances affect the operation of the implant."
So the answer says that I should avoid using such a lamp?
