IPL: bikini area and intimate area

Test skin tone:

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.

Can I use Philips Lumea every week?

When starting your IPL treatments with Philips Lumea, our recommended treatment plan is that your first four treatments are done on a fortnightly basis rather than weekly, followed by monthly top ups to keep hair regrowth at bay. It is not recommended to use your Lumea more than a fortnightly basis as IPL is only effective when your hair is in the ‘growing’ phase, so doing your treatment weekly won’t improve or speed up the results you see.

Using Philips Lumea IPL, you can expect to see results from as early as your third treatment – with a 92% hair reduction when following the treatment plan1 (although this may vary from person to person). To get the most optimal results we recommend you follow the treatment plan and, if you tend to be a little forgetful like me, add these to your IPL app so you get those very helpful reminders when your next treatment is due.
