The device is powered by an AC source and has a body attachment area of 4 cm², while the precision attachment area is 2 cm². Energy from these flashes of light heats hair follicle cells and gradually breaks them down over the course of successive treatments. That’s a lot of flashes and enough to treat many hundreds of legs, which, based on Philips’ usage recommendations, should mean the device will keep your body hair at bay for decades.

The failure of us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. The on-the-go trimmer from Philips is a descrete beauty tool that makes it quick and easy to remove even the finest facial hairs. We also do not accept products that are intimate or sanitary goods, hazardous materials, or flammable liquids or gases. The first 4 treatments must be carried out every 2 weeks, after which you should already be able to see the desired results.Unlike the Lumea Advanced, which has completely flat treatment windows that are tricky to fit around the contours of the body, the Lumea Prestige has the same curved treatment windows as the Lumea 9000. Of course, that’s a safety issue, but fortunately every Philips Lumea has a sensor that prevents it from flashing if your skin is too dark, and SenseIQ will help you choose the most comfortable light intensity setting. Our free coaching app helps you plan and stick to your treatment schedule, then takes you through each session step by step.

With the Prestige model, I could treat a whole leg in 18 minutes, compared to the 27 minutes it took using the Lumea Advanced, which is a massive time saving.The photoepilator comes with four attachments that differ in the shape and size of the window: for the body, face, underarms and bikini area. Philips Lumea Series 8000 BRI947/00 is designed for corded use - just plug the device into the mains and start your treatment. Complaints, claims, concerns, or questions regarding third-party products should be directed to the third-party. In addition to it, the package includes a stylish cosmetic bag for storage and transportation, as well as a Satin Compact trimmer.
