Philips Lumea - I need your experience.

[Bodear]

I’ve started using the Philips Lumea on my face and I hating having to shave. I think the regrowth is noticeable and I hate having to do it.
The booklet says I can epilate between treatments. Has anyone tried this? Does it work? How does it work?

I’m so confused.

I’ve been using it on my face for 2 months now and I think it’s making the hair worse I have pale skin and thick black hairs on my chin, neck and cheeks. I also have PCOS. I used to have to pluck every 3-4 days but since starting to use the Lumea I’m having to shave daily, sometimes twice a day! I didn’t think you could epilate as the light needs to reach the root of the follicle to be effective? Really disappointed as it was so expensive. I’m going to persevere until after Christmas in the hope that it suddenly starts to work.

It changed my life, but I was already having to shave every morning with stubble by the afternoon. I have no dark or thick hair now. I still shave every few days when I notice but I'm not self conscious about it!
