higher settings than those recommended can increase the risk of
skin reactions and side effects.
-
Never use compressed air, scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents
or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the device.
-
The scattered light produced by the device is harmless to your
eyes. Do not look at the flash while using the device. It is not
necessary to wear goggles during use. Use the device in a well-lit
room so that the light is less glaring to your eyes.
-

cause an extremely hazardous situation for the user.
-
Never leave the device unattended when it is switched on. Always
switch off the device after use.
-
Do not use the device if any of the conditions mentioned in
chapter ‘Who should not use Lumea? Contraindication' apply to
you.
-
Tanning with natural or artificial sunlight might influence the
sensitivity and color of your skin. Perform a skin test to determine
the appropriate light intensity setting.
13
English
-
Before you use Lumea, you should clean your skin and make sure
it is hair-free, entirely dry and free from oily substances.
-
Do not treat the same skin area more than once during a session.
This does not improve the effectiveness of the treatment, but
increases the risk of skin reactions.
-
Lumea should never be painful. If you experience discomfort,
reduce the light intensity setting.
Electromagnetic fields (EMF)
This Philips device complies with all applicable standards and regulations
regarding exposure to electromagnetic fields.
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.
The cycle of hair growth consists of different phases. IPL technology is only
effective 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
effectively treated in the growing phase.
Note: Treatment with Lumea is not effective 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 effective.
14
English
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 first treatment, it can take 1 to 2 weeks for the hairs to fall out. In
the first 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 first treatments.
After 2-3 treatments
After 2-3 treatments, you should see a noticeable reduction in hair growth.
However, to effectively treat all hairs, it is important to keep on treating
according to the recommended treatment schedule.
After 4-5 treatments
After 4-5 treatments, you should see a significant reduction of hair growth
in the areas that you treated with Lumea. A reduction of hair density should
be visible as well. Keep on treating with frequent touch-ups (every 4-8
weeks) to maintain the result.
Tanning advice
Tanning with natural or artificial sunlight
Intentionally exposing your skin to natural or artificial sunlight, with the aim
of developing a tan influences the sensitivity and color of your skin.
Therefore the following is important:
-
After each treatment, wait at least 24 hours before tanning. Even after 24
hours, make sure that the treated skin does not show any redness from
the treatment anymore. Use a sunblock SPF 50+ on the treated areas in
the 48 hours after treatment when exposing your skin to the sun. After
this period, you can use your regular sunblock.
-
After tanning, wait at least 48 hours before you use Lumea. Perform a
skin test 48 hours after tanning to determine the appropriate light
intensity setting.
-
Do not use Lumea on sunburned body areas.
Note: Occasional and indirect sun exposure does not qualify as tanning.
15
English
Tanning with creams
If you have used an artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan has
disappeared completely before you use the device.
Before you use your Lumea
Pretreating your skin
Before you use Lumea, you should pretreat your skin by removing hairs on
the surface of your skin. This allows the light to be absorbed by the hair
parts below the skin surface to ensure effective treatment. You can either
shave, short-trim, epilate or wax. Do not use depilatory creams, as
chemicals may cause skin reactions.
If you choose to wax, please wait 24 hours before using Lumea to let your
skin rest. We recommend that you take a shower before the treatment to
ensure that all possible residue of wax has been removed from your skin.
1 Pretreat the areas you intend to treat with Lumea.
2 Clean your skin and make sure it is hair-free, entirely dry and free from
oily substances.
Note: Once the hairs stop growing back, which usually happens after 4-5
treatments, you no longer have to pretreat your skin before you use the
device.
Skin test
When you use Lumea for the first time or after recent tanning, perform a
skin test on each area to be treated. The skin test is necessary to check your
skin's reaction to the treatment and to determine the correct light intensity
setting for each body area.
1 Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
2 Switch on the device. Make sure you select setting 1.
3 Put the device against your skin and press the flash button to release a
flash.
4 Slide the device over the skin to the next area to be treated.
5 Increase the setting by one level, apply a flash and slide the device to the
next area. Repeat this for all levels within the recommended range for
your skin type.
6 After the skin test, wait 24 hours and check your skin for any reaction. If
your skin shows reactions, choose the highest setting that did not result
in any skin reaction for subsequent use. The skin test should be
performed in all the areas you want to treat.

Attachments
Placing and removing
To place the attachment, simply snap it onto the light exit window.
To remove the attachment, pull it off the light exit window.
Body attachment
You can use the body attachment to treat unwanted hair on several body
areas below the neckline. You can use it for example for fast treatment of
larger areas like legs.
Facial attachment
The facial attachment includes an additional integrated light filter for extra
safety and you can therefore use it to treat unwanted facial hair on the
upper lip, chin and sideburns.
Caution:
-
Do not treat your eyebrows with Lumea.
-
When you treat the area above your upper lip, be careful that you do not
flash on the lip.
Bikini attachment (SC2009)
The bikini area attachment has a special filter for treating the coarser hair in
the bikini area.
Selecting the right light intensity
Lumea provides 5 different light intensities. Depending on your skin type
and the light intensity level you find comfortable, you can select the right
light intensity setting.
1 Consult the table below to select the right setting.

IV Mid brown; You rarely sunburn,
tan easily.
3/4
V Dark brown; You rarely sunburn,
tan very easily.
1/2/3
VI Brownish black or darker; You
rarely or never sunburn, very
dark tanning.
You cannot use the device
Note: To check if your skin type allows usage of the device, consult the skin
tone table with number 2 on the foldout page.
Note: Your skin may react differently on different days/occasions for a
number of reasons.
Handling the device
1 Before use, charge the device, clean the attachments and the light exit
window and select the right light intensity for your skin tone.
2 Place the device at a 90° angle on the skin so that the attachment and
the safety ring are in contact with your skin.
The safety ring prevents unintentional flashing without skin contact.
18
English
3 Press the device firmly onto your skin to ensure proper skin contact.
The 'ready to flash' light on the back of the device lights up green to
indicate that you can proceed with the treatment.
4 Press the flash button to release a flash. You should feel a warm
sensation because of the flash.
Note: The light produced by the device is harmless to your eyes. It is not
necessary to wear goggles during use. Use the device in a well-lit
room so that the light is less glaring to your eyes.
5 Place the device on the next area to be treated. After each flash, it takes
up to 3.5 seconds until the device is ready to flash again. You can release
a flash when the 'ready to flash' light lights up again.
6 To make sure that you have treated all areas, release the flashes close to
each other. However, make sure you flash the same area only once.
Flashing the same area twice doesn't improve the effectiveness of the
treatment, but increases the risk of skin reactions.
Two treatment modes: Stamp & Flash and Slide & Flash
Your Philips Lumea has two treatment modes for more convenient use on
different body areas:
-
The Stamp & Flash mode is ideal to treat small or curvy areas like knees
and underarms. Simply press and release the flash button to release a
single flash.
-
The Slide & Flash mode offers convenient use on larger areas like legs.
Keep the flash button pressed while you slide the device over your
skin to release several flashes in a row.
19
English
Recommended treatment schedule
Initial phase
For the first 4 to 5 treatments, we advise you to use Philips Lumea once
every two weeks to ensure that all hairs are treated.
Touch-up phase
After the initial treatment phase (4-5 treatments), we recommend touch-
ups every 4 to 8 weeks, when you see hairs growing back. This is to
maintain results and enjoy smooth skin for months. The time between
treatments may vary based on your individual hair regrowth and also
across different body areas.
