Excessive redness and swelling
In rare cases, treated skin may become very red and
swollen. This is more common in sensitive areas of
the body. The redness and swelling should subside
within 2 to 7 days. Application of ice may help to
reduce the swelling. Gentle cleansing of the skin is
allowed, but exposure to the sun should be avoided.
infection
Infection of the skin is exceedingly rare. However,
it is a possible risk following a skin burn or wound
caused by treatment with Philips Lumea Comfort.
Bruising
Very rarely, use of Philips Lumea Comfort may cause
blue-purple bruising that may last 5 to 10 days. As
the bruising fades, there may be a rust-brown
discoloration of the skin (hyperpigmentation).
Treatment plan and effectiveness
A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24
months. During this time, multiple treatments with
Philips Lumea Comfort may be required in order to
achieve permanent hair removal.
The effectiveness of hair removal varies from person
to person according to body area, hair color and
how the Philips Lumea Comfort is used.
