Lumea Advanced IPL Hair Removal System for Body & Face - SC1997/00

I've had many Philips Linda hair removal IPL's before. I used to agonise when I had to do it every 6 weeks or so because they're so heavy & difficult to hold. My arm would be hiring at the end. So when my last one (yet again) stopped working (they have battery issues, you're supposed to use them at least every 6 months or more often otherwise the battery 🔋 stops working & charging. Although on my previous one, I had used it 2-3 months before. Philips kindly exchanged them for me & refunded when possible if in warranty. I have to say, even with infrequent & not always sticking to schedule (either due to forgetting OR summer time as tanning & IPL don't go together for me, it really stings my skin, I have light olive skin, dark hair, tan deeply quickly), I've had impressive results. One thing about Philips IPL that has a winner over others for me 8s that I was told all their BRI range (I believe all their models after 2017) are designed to work not only over shaved hair but tweezed out or waxed hair also. I'm still in the process of using these but they seem as good as the bigger & heavier models. Philips told me they're the same. Note that this model doesn't have a skin detection button (which automatically detects the number suitable for your skin, but I had one of those before & the number is sometimes too high& I get done discomfort). I have 2 points I'd like to give feedback for Philips Lines range. One us please please make the devices KIGHTER & SMAKKER, thus easier to hold & use. Another thing Philips needs to improve with them is why they all look so similar OLYS it's not easy to detect from the box or even looking at the device which model you have. They need to be more distinguished. Please read the instructions carefully prior to use. It is very important.

Mein geliefertes Produkt handelte sich um die Amerikanische Version inkl.Stromstecker. Von daher absolut Unbrauchbar. Schade!

الجهاز حلو بس جاي ف علبه مقطعه و تحسها متخزنه بقالها كتير اوي بجد حاجه بشعه مانصحش حد يشتري من شخص ده

First of all, I find the device easy to use and the pain easy to tolerate even on the highest setting. After the first two to three treatments, I was getting frustrated and almost stopped using the device thinking it was a waste of money and time as I did not see any difference. I am so glad I did not give up, however, as I started noticing a huge improvement after the third or fourth time I used it. To be fair, I have to add that I was not very hairy to start with, but my legs are now pretty much hair free, I spend maybe five minutes weekly on removing the very few and fine strands of hair still left in that area. I still get some hair on my underarms but way, way less than I used to before starting the treatment, and I am hoping that even those will stop growing if I continue. It takes the longest to see results in the bikini area, partly because the skin is more delicate there so I did not use the device on the highest setting, unlike on the legs and underarms. Still, I can see a big difference already and hoping for more over time. To summarize, it is not a miracle device but excellent value for money, much cheaper and more convenient than going to a salon. Results are probably not as good or as quick either, but a good low cost alternative. Tip: hold the device straight and press firmly down on the piece of skin being treated. I saw the best results over the areas where I did this as opposed to 'hovering' over the skin. Holding it straight down will also prevent the laser light hurting your eyes.

New info.... Edit..... After 6 months it's not working properly..... 2 months on.... This is one of the best purchases in a while. It does take time to get used to especially if you have the setting too high. I have now owned this for 2 months and used to have dark hair around my lip and chin. Having started a professional laser treatments costing £250 it left me very hairy!!!!! So I bought this and its great. It has given me a hairless chin and lip and when there are signs I just top it it. The hair grows back much softer. Warning: as stated it does not take away the white hairs. I can only recommend this as a hairy person normally...... Its worth getting this. Under arms brilliant and hairless too. 😁 becareful not to be tempted to set the setting to high for quick results. It will work well in the low settings to.
