How IPL works
With IPL technology, gentle pulses of light are applied to the skin and
absorbed by the hair root. The darker the hair, the better the pulses of light
are absorbed.
The pulses of light stimulate the hair follicle to go into a resting phase. As
a consequence, the hair sheds naturally and hair regrowth is prevented,
leaving your skin continuously silky-smooth.
The cycle of hair growth consists of dierent phases. IPL technology is
only eective when the hair is in its growing phase. Not all hairs are in the
growing phase at the same time. This is why we recommend an 8-week
treatment schedule followed by touch-ups to make sure all hairs are
eectively treated in the growing phase.
Note: Treatment with Lumea is not eective if you have blond or light blond
hairs, as light hairs do not absorb enough light. Below you can see the hair
colors for which Lumea is suitable and eective.
Suitable body hair colors
Note: To check if your body hair color allows usage of the device, consult
the hair color table with number 3 on the foldout page.
What to expect
Immediately after the 1st treatment
After the rst treatment, it can take 1 to 2 weeks for the hairs to fall out.
In the rst weeks following the initial treatments, you still see some hairs
growing. These are likely to be hairs that were not in their growing phase
during the rst treatments.
