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 you to follow 
the initial treatment phase (4-5 treatments, every treatment 2 weeks apart) 
and then the follow-up treatment phase (touch-ups every 4-8 weeks) to 
make sure all hairs are effectively treated in the growing phase. 

Tip: To assure long lasting hair removal, touch-ups every 4 weeks are 

recommended.

Note: Treatment with Lumea is not effective if you have light blond, grey, red 

or white hairs as light hairs do not absorb enough light. Below you can see 

the hair colors for which Lumea is suitable and effective.

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.

Recommended treatment schedule

Initial phase

For the first 4 to 5 treatments, we advise you to use Lumea Prestige once 
every two weeks to ensure that all hairs are treated.
Note: Replacing one of the IPL treatments with another hair removal method 

(waxing, epilating, etc.) will not help to reach the desired hair reduction.

Note: If you want to remove hairs in between the Lumea treatments, you 

can use your normal hair removal method.

Touch-up phase

After the initial treatment phase (4-5 treatments), we recommend touch-ups 
every 4-8 weeks, when you see hairs growing back. This 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.
Tip: You can write the treatment schedule in your agenda to remind yourself 

of the treatments so you will not forget.

Note: Using the device more often does not enhance the effectiveness.
