Philips Lumea Bikini - Głębokie I Długotrwałe Rozwiązanie Dla Gładkiej Skóry
IPL: bikini area and intimate area
- Test skin tone: Test your skin tone one day before treatment with the Philips Lumea IPL 9000 Series. Lumea's SmartSkin sensor determines the correct intensity of light pulses for you. This prevents injuries caused by using impulses that are too strong, while also avoiding substandard results from the impulse strength being too weak.
Slight redness can occur after use. However, many users have found that any redness in the bikini area disappears shortly after. So be patient with the first applications. Above all, avoid re-using the Lumea on an area that has already been treated in order to prevent more severe skin irritation.
What is your recommended IPL aftercare?
The great thing about IPL is that there’s no ‘down-time’ or recovery time needed. However, I do have a few tips and recommendations on how you can best look after your skin post IPL treatment.
Directly after using Philips Lumea, your skin will be more sensitive. Therefore, we recommend you wait at least 24 hours or until all redness has disappeared before exposing treated areas to the sun and would avoid using any actives (like retinol) straight after treatment on the face. Adding a layer of your favourite moisturiser post treatment is also a great way to complete each session to keep your skin feeling smooth.
Logging each of your treatments in the handy Lumea app will help keep you on track as it sends you helpful reminders on upcoming treatments, as well as hosting a wealth of additional tips and guidance support.
For most of us, IPL is an investment so to keep it in great condition you should be keeping your IPL device clean, giving it a wipe down after every use and pop it in the storage bag.
