Review: Philips Lumea IPL Hair Removal System

As an introduction, let’s compare Cleopatra with the modern woman; the task is not difficult because they have something in common. Apart from the fact that they are both women, they have the same pursuit of beauty. Going back thousands of years and regardless of social status, women have always dedicated themselves to the pursuit of beauty. Looking good is an important factor not only for your self-confidence, but also for the way you feel inside.

Smooth, hair-free skin is an integral part of looking beautiful and therefore a worldwide rise of the complete hair removal solution has begun. The ‘Complete Hair Removal Solution’ is understood to be easy to perform, affordable, quick, painless, and results-oriented. There are many hair removal methods, but it is really difficult to find one that incorporates all the traits mentioned above and therefore can be considered complete.

The search for a complete method is now just around the corner as Philips has created a revolutionary hair removal product by the name of Lumea. Lumea aims to light up the world with her almost magical abilities to remove body hair without any problems and with excellent results.

Philips Lumea is not magic but science; uses intense pulsed light (IPL) technology. The technology has been used in beauty salons for a variety of purposes, but it is Philips who has brought it into the home and turned it into a practical device.

How does Philips Lumea work?

Use Intense Pulsed Light to penetrate to the roots of the hair. This automatically weakens from the roots and then the hair falls out. Besides removing hair, it also stops hair growth and after a long period of use hair growth is greatly reduced. The intensity of the treatments can vary from person to person, but in general it is necessary to perform the treatment every 2 to 4 weeks.

How long does it take?

With Philips Lumea at hand, forget about endless waxing sessions as it takes less than an hour to treat the entire body. If you don’t need to treat the whole body, smaller areas will of course take less time. For instance:

• Under arms– Expect this to take about 2 minutes per armpit.
• Leg: For the whole leg, it may take about 30 minutes. For the lower leg only, expect this to come down to about 15 minutes.
• Arms: For the entire arm, you will be looking at 20-25 minutes and just the forearm plan for about 10-15 minutes per arm.

It is safe?

It is dermatologically tested and adapts to all skin and hair types. Laser technology that also uses light can be ineffective in dark-skinned people. IPL has no side effects and does not require any additional medications, such as topical creams.

If time is of the essence and you don’t want to waste time waxing every day or every few days, this could be the best hair removal product for you.
