As we approach the season of slip dresses, strappy tops and one-piece swimsuits, now is the time to embark upon a hair-removing regime. Luckily the process needn’t be a nuisance, thanks to the experts at Philips and their new at-home, fuss-free Lumea Prestige IPL device, which delivers smooth, hair-free skin.
What is IPL hair removal?
Not to be confused with laser hair removal, IPL is short for Intense Pulsed Light – an innovative new technology where gentle pulses of light put hairs into the resting phase.
These hairs naturally shed in the following couple of weeks post-treatment, and any re-growth is inhibited, resulting in silky-smooth skin for longer – and the Philips Lumea Prestige provides all this from the comfort of your own home. All you have to do is use the device every two weeks for six to eight weeks (don’t worry, you’ll notice a reduction of up to 92% after just three treatments) and enjoy continuously smooth, summer-ready skin.

While the Philips Lumea Prestige eliminates the schlep across town for a salon appointment, it still delivers salon quality; the device also has a range of four tailor-made attachments to suit different parts of the body for a flawless finish, including a body attachment with a large treatment window, a facial attachment with a gentle-on-skin integrated light feature, a convex underarm attachment and a targeted bikini attachment for those more stubborn hairs. Oh, and you can use the device corded or cordless, meaning ease of use for those harder-to-reach areas as well as lasting plug-in power for the larger regions of the body.

If you were worried about safety, don’t be; because IPL may not be suitable for certain hair colours and skin types (especially when the skin and the hair are similar in colour) the Philips Lumea Prestige features an in-built, exclusive SmartSkin sensor, which accurately assesses your skin’s suitability for treatment and then advises the most effective setting. It’s safe to say that the hair-removal process has never been smoother…
