Philips Lumea: the future of hair removal
The
Philips Lumea IPL hair removal system is a revolutionary device that
enables you to be free from unwanted hair and enjoy smooth skin every
day. Philips Lumea uses gentle pulses of light to stimulate the hair
root into a resting phase. Hair sheds naturally and regrowth is
inhibited. Using Philips Lumea every two weeks on your underarms and
bikini area, and every four weeks on your legs, will keep your skin
smooth and hair-free day in, day out.
If you would like the gift of everlasting smoothness, add Philips Lumea to your Wish List today.
Philips Lumea works with an innovative light-based technology called
intense pulsed light (IPL), derived from technology used in professional
beauty salons for hair removal. You can now use this innovative
technology in the comfort of your home. ItÂ’s an easy-to-use, hand-held
device that applies gentle pulses of light to the hair root, causing
hair to shed naturally and hair regrowth to be inhibited, achieving the
result of everlasting smoothness.
"In my practice, patients
are always requesting a more effective solution for hair removal.
Philips Lumea is an innovative, hand-held hair removal solution. It
allows women to safely and effectively prevent hair regrowth in the
comfort of their own home." (Vic A Narurkar, US Cosmetic Dermatologist) |

How does Philips Lumea work?
Gentle
pulses of light are applied directly to the hair. The melanin in the
hair and hair root absorbs the light pulses. This process results in the
follicle going into a resting phase. The hair sheds naturally and
regrowth is inhibited. A simple and gentle treatment once every two to
four weeks will prevent hair roots from becoming active again and
prevent new hair from growing back.
Three phases of hair growth
To properly understand how intense pulsed light works, you first need to understand the three hair growth phases.
- Active phase:
The hair begins its growth from the root, and gradually extends further
above the skin. In this phase, the substance melanin (which gives hair
its colour) is at its highest. The more melanin in the hair root the
darker the colour of the hair. The Philips Lumea SC2001/00's intense
pulsed light (IPL) technology works best on dark hair as it attaches
itself to the pigment.
- Regression phase:
Hair stops growing and the root starts to shrink in preparation to shed the hair.
- Resting phase:
The old hair detaches from the root and is slowly forced out by the new
hair, which is growing underneath. The root remains at rest until the
body tells it to re-enter the active phase. |
How does Philips Lumea prevent hair growth?
The
Philips Lumea SC2001/00 intense pulsed light (IPL) works by heating up
the hair and the root beneath the skin, using gentle pulses of light
absorbed by the hairÂ’s melanin. An internal optical filter ensures no UV
light reaches the skin and leaves it unharmed. This light energy
stimulates the hair root to go into a resting phase. In the following
days the hair will shed naturally and hair growth is inhibited. It may
take several weeks before the root becomes active again to grow a new
hair. Used every two weeks you will enjoy the confidence of silky smooth
skin forever.
Philips Lumea works even on sensitive body areas
Philips
Lumea has been developed in close cooperation with leading
dermatologists with five adjustable light intensity settings for a safe,
effective and gentle treatment, even on sensitive areas.

Five steps to everlasting smoothness:
Pre-shave the treatment area
Pre-shave
the treatment area to ensure the light energy is channelled in the most
efficient way to the follicle. This is only required for the first few
treatments. |
 |
Select the correct light intensity
Consult the skin and hair type matrix and select the light intensity suitable for your skin tone and body hair color.
|
 |
Apply pulses of light to the hair
Apply
gentle pulses of light to the hair. The light produces heat in the
hair, which is transferred to the hair follicle. This stimulates the
hair follicle to go into a resting phase. |
 |
Effective hair regrowth prevention
As a consequence, the hair sheds naturally and hair regrowth is inhibited. |
 |
Repeat the treatment every two to four weeks
To
prevent hairs from growing back, the treatment must be repeated every
two weeks (or every month for legs) which will progressively reduce hair
regrowth to a minimum.

hair. It is NOT suitable for (naturally) red, grey and light blonde hair
or for very dark skin types (skin type VI). Please consult the table
below to determine which light intensities are most suitable for your

Can I expect light-based hair removal results to last forever?
Neither professional nor at-home
light-based hair removal treatments can deliver permanent hair removal.
Due to the hair growth cycle, light-based treatments are usually done
in a series of sessions. Hairs that may have been dormant during your
previous treatment may now be in the growth phase. With both
professional and at-home treatments, hairs usually reappear after time,
typically with a reduced amount or finer version. For professional
treatment, maintenance sessions once or twice a year are often
recommended. Philips Lumea uses a lower intensity than the professional
treatments, but using it more regularly gives you breakthrough results
at home.
Some competitors claim ‘permanent hair reduction’.
According to the FDA (Richard Felten, FDA regulator responsible for
light-based epilation) "Permanent hair reduction is defined as the
long-term, stable reduction in the number of hairs regrowing after a
treatment regime. Permanent hair reduction does not necessarily imply
the elimination of all hairs in the treatment area." Unfortunately, most
consumers mistake ‘permanent hair reduction’ (which can mean only 40%
reduction, which would be an unsatisfactory result) for ‘permanent hair
removalÂ’, which is a myth.
Important safety advice
Unfortunately,
Philips Lumea is not designed for everyone. If any of the following is
true for you, then this appliance is not suitable for you to use.
- If your natural hair colour in the treatment areas is light blonde, white, grey or red.
- If
you are of skin type VI (you rarely or never get sunburnt and you tan
very darkly). In this case you run a high risk of developing skin
reactions such as strong redness, burns or discolouration when you use
Philips Lumea.
- Philips Lumea Sc2001 is not suitable for use on the face.(Sc2002 & Sc2003 models are suitable for face. Please look in our ebay shop)
- There
are medications and health conditions that may lead to adverse
reactions when you use Philips Lumea. We would advise you to visit
www.philips.co.uk/lumea to read full safety information.
- You can also find full information on using Philips Lumea before and after tanning at www.philips.co.uk/lumea
| Philips Lumea is a cost-effective alternative to salon treatments
"The
cost of laser hair removal depends on several factors including the
area to be treated, the amount of hair growth on the area, the number of
treatments needed, the type of laser used, the individual physician or
practitioner, and your geographic location. Prices vary widely from
clinic to clinic. Laser hair removal need an average of four to six
sessions for a final result of approximately 80% hair reduction in the
specified area." (www.hairlaserremoval.co.uk: 2009)
