What I have not tried everything to eliminate this annoying hair growth in unwanted places. Shaved, waxed and depilated - ouch! Whether it'd probably finally succeed in making the annoying hairs "kills off"? I was curious how a Flitzebogen!
Before the first treatment, the device must be fully charged. It is important that you shaved the area to be treated as preparation thoroughly.
A preliminary test is also recommended, ie, the skin should be "geblitzdingst" at one point. I have read several times already this term and he is right on target! It actually feels like the Men in Black. ;)
If the skin after 24 hours show no reaction, it can be started with the treatment.
It is important that you comply with the attached table, on all skin types and hair colors are displayed in order to make the correct setting. The recommended light levels go from level 1 - 5. The Lumea is not suitable for red, blonde or gray / white hair. Also, the skin type plays an important role. So fair skin types are not particularly suitable, very dark contrast.
I have brown hair and a pretty bright skin type, I use Level 4/5.
For safety reasons, the Lumea works effectively only when he is pressed in exactly the right position on the skin.
Only then the green Ready light is on and the light pulse can be triggered with the flash button.
Practically, on large-scale sites, such. As the legs, that you can hold down the flash button, so a light pulse after another is triggered. I have been there only changed the position of the device, as I have always "pushed" a little bit.
For the face and shoulders, I then changed the top and use the precision attachment.
It is recommended, birthmarks, etc. for the treatment with a white eye pencil to "paint over" because dark colors absorb light and may cause skin irritation.
In the first 4 - 5 treatments should Lumea be used every two weeks, more frequent treatments found no faster or better results. 6-weekly treatment of - Later a 4 ranges.
Is the treatment with the Lumea painful?
No, she is not. I'm really very delicate and fussy, but I felt no pain.
I try to describe the feeling a little. If the flash fires, it feels for the tiny fraction of a second at a little hot. This takes you like a little - true Tweak - but really minimal. Not worth talking about!
I have been waiting for just the face in the armpits and bikini area on a pain. The failed to materialize and it really was not unpleasant.
Treatment with the Lumea / achievements:
After the 1st treatment:
My hair growth has just used as before quickly after the first treatment, but I have no "miracle" expected after just one treatment, even if I confess, not just among the "steadfast" and secretly still hoping have that I already would notice any change.
After the 2nd treatment:
First of all, I was very disappointed when I noticed that the hair after treatment 2 at all treated sites just as quickly began to sprout as before. I am a very impatient and microenvironment type and would prefer to always all at once at a time! ;)
But somehow they felt differently - soft - "fluffy". A first change!
After the 3rd treatment:
At first I was a little frustrated when I again - after treatment, after all, already 3 - saw the first hairs. But on closer inspection, I then found that some places "bald" were and to others it grew hair. First successes appeared to! Yay!
After the 4th treatment:
The successes are getting bigger. I have so far made on the legs the best success. There is already asleep the majority of hairs and a few stubble can still be seen.
The bikini area is not yet ready. The gaps are larger, but it sprout still some hairs.
Very stubbornly designed the armpit area. There, I've been the smallest success. Here are still growing by quite a few hairs.
After the 5th treatment:
Meanwhile, the legs are free of hair. In the other "regions", the successes are getting bigger and it only grow scattered hairs after. Now I am sure that it will not be long until the last hair "rest" at last.
Conclusion:
Having initially been "afraid" was that it just does not work for me, I'm thrilled. But you have to have a lot of patience, because it takes time until you achieve the desired results.
I do not want to miss this type of hair removal.
The quality of the equipment is very high, everything is solid and well made. The battery lasts for actually quite a body treatment. The application is easy, convenient and above all painless, except for this little tweaking, but this is really not bad.
The price, however, is already fierce. Therefore you have to save long. Fortunately, the price usually falls after some time and there are cheaper deals.
A big advantage of course is that the Lumea is maintenance free and no replacement parts are required. The number of flashes is enough for about 5 years before the effect wears off.
I recommend the Philips Lumea Precision Plus very happy to help. An asterisk deduction there from me not for quality but for the price, because that is really the only criticism.
