English 13
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 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.
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.
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.
14 English
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, 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.
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 48 hours before tanning. Even after 48
hours, make sure that the treated skin does not show any redness from
the treatment anymore.
- In case of exposing your skin to the sun (without tanning intentionally) in the 48 hours after treatment, use a sunblock SPF 50+ on the treated areas. After this period, you can use a sunblock SPF 30+ for two weeks.
-After tanning, wait at least 2 weeks before you use Lumea. Perform a skin test 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.
If you have used an artificial tanning lotion, wait until the artificial tan has disappeared completely before you use the device.
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.
English 15
If you chose 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.
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.
1Choose an area close to the area you intend to treat.
2Switch on the device. Make sure you select setting 1.
3Put the device against your skin and press the flash button to release a flash.
4Slide the device over the skin to the next area to be treated.
5Increase 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.
6After 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.
To place the attachment, simply snap it onto the light exit window.
16 English
To remove the attachment, pull it off the light exit window.
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.
2 To adjust the light intensity setting, press the on/off button one or more times until you have reached the required setting. The corresponding intensity light lights up white.
3 Lumea should never be painful. If you experience discomfort, reduce the light intensity setting.

Note: Your skin may react differently on different days/occasions for a number of reasons.
1Before use, clean the attachment and the light exit window.
2Put the small plug in the device and put the adapter in the wall socket.
3 Switch on the device and select the right light intensity for your skin tone.
4Place the device at a 90° angle on the skin so that the attachment and the integrated safety system are in contact with your skin.
The integrated safety system prevents unintentional flashing without skin contact..
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
18 English
8 To make sure that you have treated all areas, release the ashes close to each other. E ective light only comes out of the light exit window, therefore there should be some overlap. However, make sure you ash the same area only once. Flashing the same area twice doesn't improve the e ectiveness of the treatment, but increases the risk of skin reactions.
9 When you have nished the treatment, press and hold the on/o button for 2 seconds to switch o the device.
Philips Lumea has two treatment modes for more convenient use on di erent body areas:
-The Stamp & Flash mode (available for SC1995, SC1993) is ideal to treat small or curvy areas like knees and underarms. Simply press and release the ash button to release a single ash.
-The Slide & Flash mode (only available for SC1995) o ers convenient use on larger areas like legs. Keep the ash button pressed while you slide the device over your skin to release several ashes in a row.
For the rst 4 to 5 treatments, we advise you to use Philips Lumea once every two weeks to ensure that all hairs are treated.
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 di erent body areas.

Your skin may show slight redness and/or may prickle, tingle or feel warm. This reaction is absolutely harmless and disappears quickly. Dry skin and itching may occur due to shaving or a combination of shaving and light treatment. You can cool the area with an ice pack
20 English
or a wet face cloth. If dryness persists, you can apply a non-scented moisturizer on the treated area 24 hours after the treatment.
-Burns, excessive redness (e.g. around hair follicles) and swelling: these reactions occur rarely. They are the result of using a light intensity that is too high for your skin tone. If these reactions do not disappear within 3 days, we advise you to consult a doctor. Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
-Skin discoloration: this occurs very rarely. Skin discoloration manifests itself as either a darker patch (hyperpigmentation) or a lighter patch (hypopigmentation) than the surrounding area. This is the result of using a light intensity that is too high for your skin tone. If the discoloration does not disappear within 2 weeks, we advise you to consult a doctor. Do not treat discolored areas until the discoloration has disappeared and your skin has regained its normal skin tone.
-Skin infection is very rare but is a possible risk following a (micro)wound, a skin burn, skin irritation etc.
-Epidermal heating (a sharply defined brownish area which often occurs with darker skin tones and is not accompanied with skin dryness): This reaction occurs very rarely. In case this reaction does not disappear within 1 week, we advise you to consult a doctor. Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
-Blistering (looks like small bubbles on the surface of the skin): this occurs very rarely. In case this reaction does not disappear within 1 month or when the skin gets infected, we advise you to consult a doctor. Wait with the next treatment until the skin has healed completely and make sure you use a lower light intensity.
-Scarring: often the secondary effect of a burn, which can take longer than a month to heal.
English 21
-Folliculitis (swelling around hair follicles combined with pustule formation): this reaction occurs very rarely and is the result of bacteria penetrating the damaged skin. In case this reaction occurs, we advise you to consult a doctor as folliculitis may need antibiotic ointment.
-Excessive pain: this can occur during or after treatment if you have used the device on skin that is not hair-free, if you use the device at a light intensity that is too high for your skin tone, if you flash the same area more than once and if you use the device on open wounds, inflammations, infections, tattoos, burns, etc.
After use, you can safely apply lotions, creams, deodorant, moisturizer or cosmetics to the treated areas. If you experience skin irritation or skin redness after treatment, wait until it disappears before applying any product to your skin. If you experience skin irritation after applying a product to your skin, wash it off with water.
Note: when following all instructions you may still get skin reactions. In this case stop using the device and contact the consumer care center in your country.
1After use, switch off the device, unplug it and let it cool down.
2Remove the attachment.
3 Moisten the soft cloth supplied with the device with a few drops of water and use it to clean the following parts:
- the light exit window
- the outside surface of the attachment - the reflector inside the attachment
4 Let all parts air dry thoroughly.
5 Store the device in a dust-free and dry place at a temperature between -25 °C and 60 °C.
