current home hair removal methods because it signiicantly reduces
hair regrowth. Philips has been investigating this method together with
leading dermatologists for over 15 years. You can now use this innovative
technology comfortably in the privacy of your own home, whenever
you want.
This appliance has been speciically designed and optimised for use by
women, but can be used by men as well.
Philips Lumea Essential enables treatment of unwanted hair on body areas
below the neckline.
Philips Lumea Essential is designed for use by one person only.

Essential now brings this innovative technology to the comfort of your home.
Effective hair regrowth prevention for everyday smoothness
This method provides you with long-lasting hair regrowth prevention and
silky-smooth skin. Our studies have shown a signiicant hair reduction after
just two treatments. Optimal results were generally achieved after four
to ive treatments. A reduction in hair density is visible from treatment to
treatment. How fast the effect becomes visible and how long the results
last varies from person to person. For more information, see section
'How to achieve optimal results' in chapter 'Using the appliance'.
Gentle treatment, even on sensitive body areas
Philips Lumea Essential has been developed in close cooperation with
leading dermatologists for an effective and gentle treatment, even on the
most sensitive body areas.

Philips Lumea Essential is equipped with a high-performance lamp which
does not require replacement. This lamp can generate over 100,000 lashes

5 years* while saving money on expensive replacement lamps.
