Philips Lumea Prestige review: What is IPL?
IPL stands for 'Intense Pulse Light'. It uses multiple wavelengths of light to heat pigment within the hair – killing the growing cells and stopping the hair from regrowing.
With that in mind, it's a good idea to start your IPL treatment a few months before you need smooth, hair-free skin.
I have pale skin and dark hair – which is ideal when it comes to IPL. These machines are less effective if you have grey hair, red hair or light blonde hair, or if you have a darker skin tone. Below is a graphic from Philips which shows which hair and skin types are compatible with IPL:
It's worth noting that this is an issue with all IPL machines, not just the Philips Lumea Prestige.
PHILIPS Philips Lumea IPL Hair Removal 9000 Series - Hair Removal Device with SenseIQ Technology, 4 Attachments for Body, Face, Bikini and Underarm, Cordless Use (Model BRI957/00)
With the Philips Lumea 9900 series you can also now ‘Try and Buy’ the product and spread the cost over 12 months and can cancel at any time if they are not fully satisfied, which is helpful for those who aren’t quite sure if IPL is the right choice for them.
Philips Lumea Prestige review: Design and Attachments
The Lumea Prestige feels like a luxury device. It's solid and gives you confidence that it could survive being thrown in a suitcase and bashed around a little.
Philips has opted for an L-shaped design for the Lumea Prestige, which we prefer over the 'stick deodorant' design of some other IPL machines. The L-shape is comfortable to hold and makes extended use less strenuous.
That being said, the machine is still quite heavy, so can be wearing on your wrists. So, while I can happily cover both legs on my own, I do prefer having a partner do it for me.
The Lumea Prestige is the flagship product in Philips' IPL range, and, as such, it comes with all the attachments you'll need to treat your entire body. These include:
Face attachment
Precision attachment
The Precision attachment is a medium-sized, curved attachment designed for precise coverage of bikini and underarm areas
Body attachment
The Body attachment is the largest curved, contour-following design for fast treatment on large body areas like legs, arms, back and stomach.
You also get a pouch to store the device and all the attachments.
