I have waited since last Christmas before reviewing this item in order to give Lumea a fair bit of time to start working, seeing as many before me have explicitly expressed this IPL treatment isn’t a quick fix. Ultimately, I have found this to be an accurate description. Followed instructions to the letter regarding shaving beforehand and regular scheduling… Even downloaded the Lumea app to help keep track of the earlier treatments. By the end of the first 6 weeks, I must admit I was despondent. Had not seen any improvement whatsoever, despite my skin/hair colouration meaning I was applicable to safely use the highest (5) setting for the IPL bulb. I even started wondering if I would be one of the anomalies in the initial tests for Lumea who saw more hair growth or indeed seemed completely immune. In the end, it all became a (worthwhile!) exercise in patience. Kept at it past the 6-week mark out of sheer belligerence, seeing as this item was an expensive investment, but had started falling back on my epilation routines to tide me over. Interestingly, despite having read a number of accounts from reviewers warning not to epliate or wax (anything that pulls the hairs out by the root, really) between treatments, it was only a week or so after the return of my epilating that I realised I was – finally! – getting results from the IPL.
The biggest indicator is the fact the hairs aren’t growing as fast or as strongly per usual. They are starting to become very fine which has additionally made epilation much quicker and easier. My epilator, I fear, may well become defunct within a year! The hairs on all parts of the skin I have used Lumea upon are really beginning to give up. At this stage, each stretch of time before another IPL treatment and my using the epilator are becoming longer and longer. I cannot even describe how happy I am with this (long-in-the-coming!) development, as I have dabbled and struggled with pretty much every tool and method of hair-removal since early teens to my late twenties. As a time-tested enemy of body hair, I give Lumea my seal of approval and would happily recommend this product to anyone willing to invest in a little more time and effort into remaining hair free.
To conclude I am really grateful for this product (and apologies for the massive review!)
I wish I had gotten this sooner! I have very stubborn hair growth on my chin, upper lip, and cheeks area common areas for a lot of PCOS sufferers. After only 2 treatments, I have already noticed much slower hair growth I am not needing to shave as often whereas before I would need to shave daily. there are patches of no hair growth. I have thick coarse black hair medium skin tone. Already I am feeling more confident and feel this has equipped me with the tool to keep my stubborn unwanted hair under control. It has worked really well on my arms and legs also. Before each treatment, I shaved the area. It does say you can wax before but after having professional IPL in a clinic where I was forbidden to pluck or wax, that did not sit right to do that. I bought this specifically for my face. As a PCOS sufferer, I have thick and black upper lip, chin, and cheek hair. I have plucked daily for years. So, to get what I thought would be the best results, I switched up and started shaving my face daily instead and had to embrace the 5 oโclock shadow! There was no noticeable difference after 3 treatments and shaving only. In fact, I got the best results on my face from doing a treatment after I gave up and plucked. Now I am quite pleased with the results, I can leave it a few days before having to act which has made a huge difference! Bearing in mind I have only done 4 treatments! The rest of my body great results on legs, no noticeable growth until day 4-5 after shaving. I have noticed very little difference in my underarms. Overall, -it is a super easy, -much quicker than going for a wax, -it only hurts if thereโs hair left outside the skin or used on tattoos -has worked enough to change my life and how I feel
Worth every penny to me. And was cheaper than the amount I have spent on IPL in clinic (which was just on my face, and I found ineffective) This product is great for males. About ten years ago I got my chest/abs hair professionally removed using laser treatment, which I much prefer as it is cooler and helps see my gym gains better. I decided I would try this product as my arms and legs were a bit out of sync with my chest. Anyhow I am really pleased with the results and ease of use. I have used it pretty much all over, except my face and head. Results are great and I have never felt any pain or discomfort. Legs can be a bit of a hassle due to size but with practice you get quicker. I have had this for 2 months now with little hair returning. I suppose the big test would be if I stopped using it for a long period of time, would all the hairs return? Does not feel like they would. Anyhow I am loving the look of my new body and at least I will not have to put up with grey body hair as I age. I would definitely recommend it.
So far, it is doing what it said it would, but its slightly more painful than expected though still nothing like waxing/epilating and there are a few areas it does not work on due to small size (e.g fingers). Overall happy with bow it is going as far as I am looking more and more hair free and smooth skinned Excellent. Significantly more powerful than older models. Power adapter is very large, and requires UK to Aus. adapter also. Lowest price found in Australia and quick delivery.
