I just shaved my chin

so I could use my Lumea on it. I’ve done underarms and legs but I’ve never done facial hair before.

I had salon laser hair removal done on it 15 (or so) years ago and it didn’t go well, there wasn’t much reduction. They suggested that it might be hormone related but I’ve since been tested for PCOS and it was clear.

I was epilating almost every week so I just bit the bullet and went for it. Set the lumea at level 5 and it was ok, didn’t really hurt.

Nervous about regrowth!

You'll be horrified. Not because it's terrible/thicker, but because they'll all be coming at once and will be very pointy.

A £30 Philips rotary shaver will be less traumatic in terms of both skin health and regrowth.

I got into a Habit of doing this but they do indeed grow back very spiky.. I plucked them all a few weeks ago and none have grown back!!

I know several women who have used razor and Lumea and it's been fine. If it's worked on your other areas, it will work on your face too.
