IPL stands for Intense Pulsed Light. Philips Lumea applies gentle pulses of light to the hair root, putting the follicle into a resting phase. As a consequence, the amount of hair your body grows gradually decreases. Repeating the treatment leaves your skin beautifully hair free and touchably smooth. Treatment to prevent hair regrowth is safe and gentle, even on sensitive areas. Philips Lumea is clinically tested and developed with dermatologists for easy and effective treatment, from the comfort of your own home.
Objective studies show up to 92% hair reduction after three treatments**. Carry out the first four treatments every two weeks, and the next eight treatments every four weeks. After 12 treatments you can enjoy six months of hair-free smooth skin*.
Philips Lumea Prestige is effective on a wide range of hair and skin types. It works on naturally dark blonde, brown and black hair and on skin tones from very white to dark brown. IPL needs contrast between the pigment in the hair color and the pigment in the skin tone, therefore (as with other IPL-based treatments) Lumea cannot be used to treat white, grey, light blonde or red hair. And is not suitable for very dark skin.

Brilliant
I’m genuinely impressed with this device. I started seeing results by the third treatment, which completely eased my initial hesitation about the price. The option to pay monthly with no interest made the decision even easier, and I’m so glad I went for it. Using it is effortless; the treatments are painless, and the device automatically adjusts the intensity based on your skin tone, so you always feel confident you’re using it correctly. I’m heading into summer feeling stress‑free, and honestly, becoming a hairless woman for a very long time feels amazing. Just stay consistent with your sessions and the results will speak for themselves. Absolutely worth it.
Pros
easy to use
Cons
battery lifetime is not long enough for a full body treatment

Effective product
I previously owned an older Philips Lumea model that lasted over 10 years before finally breaking, so I felt confident upgrading to this newer version. I mainly wanted it to keep on top of a few patchy areas, and I’m really pleased with the results so far. This model feels well designed and comfortable to use – the ergonomics are noticeably better, making treatments easier and less awkward. The SenseIQ feature is reassuring and helps tailor the treatment, which gives extra confidence when using it. It feels powerful, well made, and very much like a premium product. Hair regrowth has been slower and finer, even after just a few sessions, which is exactly what I was hoping for. It’s easy to use, effective, and a great update from my previous device. The only downside is storage – despite the provided bag, I never seem to be able to fit the device and all the attachments back into it neatly. That aside, it’s an excellent product and I’m very happy with this upgrade.
Pros
Effective, ergonomically easy to use
Cons
Storage bag
