Light-based hair removal is one of the most effective methods to

treat unwanted body hair with longer-lasting results. It is different from

current home hair removal methods because it signicantly reduces

hair regrowth. Philips has been investigating this method together with

leading dermatologists for over 10 years. You can now use this innovative

technology comfortably in the privacy of your own home, whenever and

wherever you want.

This appliance has been specically designed and optimised for use by

women, but can be used by men as well.

It is intended for removing body hair on areas mentioned below:

- Underarms

- Arms

- Stomach

- Bikini area

- Legs

Do not use Philips Lumea on the face.

Philips Lumea is designed for use by one person only.

For more information about Philips Lumea, see www.philips.com/lumea.

Philips Lumea uses a light-based technology called ‘Intense Pulsed Light’

(IPL). IPL is also used in the professional beauty market for hair removal

and has been in use for the last fteen years. Philips Lumea now brings this

innovative technology to the comfort of your home.

This method provides you with long-lasting hair regrowth prevention and

silky-smooth skin. Our studies have shown a signicant hair reduction

already after two treatments. Optimal results were generally achieved after

four to ve treatments. A reduction in hair density is visible from treatment

to treatment. How fast the effect becomes visible and how long the results

last varies from person to person. For more information, see section ‘How

to achieve optimal results’ in chapter ‘Using the appliance’.

Philips Lumea is equipped with a high performance lamp which does

not require replacement. This lamp can generate over 80,000 ashes and

should enable you to continuously maintain results for more than 5 years*

while saving money on expensive replacement lamps.

Hair growth rates differ from person to person, depending on age,

metabolism and other factors. However, everyone’s hair normally grows in

3 phases.

1 Growing phase (anagen phase)

The hair grows actively from the root. In this phase the concentration of

melanin is highest. Melanin is responsible for the pigmentation of the hair.

Melanin concentration is also the determining factor for the efcacy of this

method. Only hairs in the growing phase are susceptible to treatment with

light.

2 Degradation phase (catagen phase)

Hair growth stops and the root shrinks before the hair sheds.

3 Resting phase (telogen phase)

The old hair separates from its hair follicle and sheds. The follicle remains

at rest until the biological clock tells it to become active again and grow a

new hair.



The appliance works by heating up the hair and root beneath the skin.

The melanin in the hair and hair root absorbs the released light pulses. The

darker the colour of the hair, the more light can be absorbed. This process

stimulates the hair to go into the resting phase.

The hair now sheds naturally and the hair growth is inhibited. Hairs can

take one or two weeks to shed. Optimal hair removal cannot be obtained

with a single session, since only hairs in the growing phase are susceptible

to treatment with light. During a treatment, hairs on the treated area are

usually in different stages of the hair growth cycle. To effectively treat all

hairs you have to repeat the treatment every two weeks for a few times.

An integrated optical lter ensures that no UV light reaches the skin

and guarantees that the appliance is safe for the skin.
