I bought a Lumea IPL device from Amazon on a lightening deal. It was a rush decision and a lot of money!

Does anyone have one and are they worth the price tag?

I love mine. I don't use it as often as I should so I forget, but even after one use hair was growing back with patches missing. It works better for certain skin and hair types though. Are you fair-skinned with dark hair?

Thanks for replying! I am fair. Yes dark hair and fair skin!

Just eyeing up the unopened box and wondering if it is another expensive mistake! Clarisonic

I hadn't used mine much before it suddenly stopped working. It did have an effect though as I only did one leg and still have one leg hairier than the other two years later Confused.

I don't have the cordless one, but I have got a Lumia comfort, I think it is. I did start noticing a difference quite quickly but it took longer than I was expecting to get to the stage where I have little re-growth.

It is brilliant. If i remember to use it. I have extremely dark hair and even a slight moustache makes me look horrible. Since this, I have none and have only got a faint line eventhough I have not used it for 2 years. also use it on my arms.

I'm about to put mine on ebay because even though it works and i paid 400 quid I am lazy and don't bother using it at all. When i first got it I did abd it worked fantasticly but i just don't have the energy to be zapping myself.
