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 significantly reduces hair
regrowth. Philips has been investigating this method together with leading
dermatologists for over 15 years. You can now use this innovative technology
comfortably in the privacy of your own home, whenever you want.
This appliance has been specifically designed and optimised for use by
women, but can be used by men as well.
Philips Lumea Essential enables treatment of unwanted hair on body areas
below the neckline.
Philips Lumea Essential is designed for use by one person only.

Benefits
This appliance provides the following benefits:
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology for home use
Philips Lumea Essential 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 fifteen years. Philips Lumea Essential now
brings this innovative technology to the comfort of your home.
Effective hair regrowth prevention for everyday smoothness
This method provides you with long-lasting hair regrowth prevention and
silky-smooth skin. Our studies have shown a significant hair reduction after
just two treatments. Optimal results were generally achieved after four
to five 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'.
Gentle treatment, even on sensitive body areas
Philips Lumea Essential has been developed in close cooperation with
leading dermatologists for an effective and gentle treatment, even on the
most sensitive body areas.
No replacement parts needed, no hidden costs
Philips Lumea Essential is equipped with a high-performance lamp which
does not require replacement. This lamp can generate over 100,000 flashes
and should enable you to continuously maintain results for more than
5 years* while saving money on expensive replacement lamps.
