Problem
The skin reaction after
treatment lasts longer than
usual.
The results of the
treatment are not
satisfactory.
My body attachment does
not have an integrated
glass/filter/window.
Possible cause
The device is not suitable for
your skin tone.
You have used a light
intensity setting which is too
high for you.
You have used a light
intensity setting which is too
low for you.
You did not flash an area
adjacent to an area you
treated before.
The device is not effective on
your body hair color.
You do not use the appliance
as often as recommended.
You respond more slowly to
IPL treatment.
This is normal.
Solution
Do not use the device if you have skin
type VI or V, a brownish black or darker
skin tone.
Select a lower intensity next
time. See chapter 'Using your Philips
Lumea', section 'Selecting the right light
intensity'.
Select a higher setting next time.
You have to release the flashes close to
each other.
If you have light blond, blond, or red hair,
the treatment is not effective.
To remove all hairs successfully, we
advice you to follow the recommended
treatment schedule. You can reduce the
time between treatments, but do not
treat more often than once every two
weeks.
Continue using the device for at least 6
months, as hair regrowth can still
decrease over the course of this period.
The body attachment does not contain a
glass/filter/window.
