Recommended treatment schedule

Initial phase
Touch-up phase
Treatment with Lumea is not effective if you have light blond, grey, red or white
hairs as hairs with these colors do not absorb enough light. To check if your body
hair color allows usage of the device, consult the hair color table on the foldout
page.
To achieve effective hair reduction, follow the initial treatment schedule.
Initial treatment schedule
For the first 4 treatments, use Lumea once every 2 weeks to ensure that all hairs
are treated.
-
Perform a treatment within 3 days before or after the planned treatment
date.
-
If you have not treated yourself within 3 days before or after the planned
treatment date, restart the initial phase. Plan in 4 treatments, 1 treatment
every 2 weeks.
Note: If you do not restart the initial phase, you may not see effective hair
reduction.
Note: Replacing one of the IPL treatments with another hair removal method
(waxing, epilating, etc.) will not help to reach the desired hair reduction.
If you want to remove hairs in between the Lumea treatments, you can use your
normal hair removal method (excluding hair removal creams).
After the initial phase (4 treatments), we recommend touch-ups every 4 weeks.
Touch-up treatment schedule
Perform a treatment every 4 weeks. Repeat this 8 times to achieve effective hair
reduction. This is to maintain results and enjoy smooth skin for months.
-
We advise you to perform a treatment within 4 days before or after the
planned treatment date.
-
The results may vary based on your individual hair growth and also across
different body areas.
-
If you have completed the touch-up phase and you see the need to continue
treatment (hair starts coming back), we advise you to restart the initial phase.
Note: Using the device more often does not increase efficacy.
Tip: Mark the treatment schedule on your calendar to remind yourself of the
planned treatments.
