Welcome

Welcome to the beauty world of Lumea! You are

only a few weeks away from silky-smooth skin.

Philips Lumea uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

technology, known as one of the most effective

methods to continuously prevent hair regrowth. In

close collaboration with skin experts we adapted

this light-based technology, originally used in

professional beauty salons, for easy and effective

use in the safety of your home. Philips Lumea is

gentle and offers convenient and effective

treatment at a light intensity that you find

comfortable. Unwanted hairs are finally a thing of

the past. Enjoy the feeling of being hair-free and

look and feel amazing every day.
