I’m truly grateful to the Philips customer service team for your prompt response to my complaint about the cracked screen. You guys are amazing! I live in New Zealand, and I was so impressed that you reached out to me all the way from Australia and arranged a replacement IPL device. I’ve always been a fan and loyal user of Philips, but after this… Read more · 1
experience, I deeply admire your customer service.
Thank you so much, Philips team — you really went above and beyond!
Laser screen cracked – I was trying to clean the laser light screen. The screen get damaged. I don't know if the screen can be replaced or not. Show details · 1
really happy with the results however a crack on my face attachment – I’m so happy with the results, however I found there’s a small crack on my face attachment. It’s not where the flash comes out from, but the top part. Where there’s a clear window type of thing. Not sure if it makes sense. When I went to see if I could purchase the face attachment it says it’s discontinued. I used it anyway, and it seems to be… Read more · 1
working fine, as the small crack isn’t on the orange part of the attachment. But I noticed it after. Not sure what todo?
Does not work on bikini/Hollywood/Brazilian – I bought this a while back, it works well on rest of the body, just not on the bikini/Hollywood/Brazilian. The orange light comes on when I tried to use it in these areas. I have read some other reviews it seems to be a common problem with the machine not working in these areas. Slightly disappointed ☹️ Show details
This will change your life!!!! – This will give you back your confidence. Super easy and comfortable to operate. You can adjust the intensity and attachment to suit the area you are working on which I love. For reference I had coarse dark hair and noticed a difference by the second session. Hair grew back sparse or not at all. In the end I didn’t even complete the… Read more · 1
recommended number of sessions because I already achieved the result I was looking for. I’d say 80% of my body hair hasn’t grown back and the rest is so fine you can’t even see it. This machine really works and is so quiet you can do it just about anywhere without disturbing anyone else. A major advantage is that it’s cordless, however I personally find the flashes are stronger and the interval between them shorter when connected to mains power. I use it sparingly now more-so to maintain the battery’s longevity. It’s a pricy investment but far exceeded my expectations and worth every cent, especially when you factor in the cost and inconvenience of visiting a salon. Get one, you won’t be disappointed!
This is perfect product – The Philips Lumea does exactly what promises. After 4 sessions, I no longer had hair growing, now I just need to do the maintenance every month. I highly recommend it!!! I want to buy it for my mom. Show details
It really works! – Works 100% on my darker hairs on legs and under arms. Clinics claim their machines would not work on my lighter facial hair. This machine reduced my lighter facial hairs by 80%. Which is way more than I expected. Very happy! I highly recommend this product. Show details · 1
It has changed my life! – I have suffered with unwanted hair all my life. I tried electrolysis for many years. I bought this and I have had totally hair free legs for 3 years. Worth every penny. Quick. Painless and brilliant results. Absolutely fantastic product. I cannot recommend highly enough. Show details · 1
Game Changer – I love the Phillips Lumea Prestige. It is really simple to use and maintain. It has different attachments to cater for hair reduction on different parts of your body. It even comes with an app you download, which guides you through the process of managing your hair removal in a staged and safe way. I have been using it since November 2020 and… Read more · 1
noticed hair reduction even after the first use. Safe, painless and effective. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting a genuine product that achieves what it claims to: permanent hair reduction.
Good product – It was simple to use. Feels great against my skin. I'm very happy with this product. I will recommend to my friends. I enjoy the results of this product, I feel my masks or creams being pushed and absorbed deeper into my skin! Show reply
One of the best products I’ve bought – I am so happy I’ve bought this machine instead of waisting more time and money at beauty salons. At salons you need to wait 6-8 weeks in between appointments and they can be very costly. Using this machine at home means you can use it every 2-3 night meaning you get really fast results and this product works so good. I’m really happy with my purchase. Show details · 1
Faulty product very disappointing – After 3 treatments all of the intensity lights started flashing at the same time, I have tried re-setting the device (turning it off, unplugging it, etc) and have tried letting it cool down for a while but whenever I turn it back on the lights begin flashing again. A very disappointing product. Show details
Hi there, Zahra, thanks for reaching… Read more
A worthwhile investment – I have one regret about this purchase and it’s that I didn’t invest in the Philips Lumea Prestige sooner. My first impression of this device was that it is so quiet you could do it in the lounge room while you watch a movie with your family and not disturb anyone. It’s the most ergonomic IPL design available on the market so you won’t end up… Read more · 1
with RSI after using it. It’s unbelievably fast and even on the highest setting it is very comfortable to use and has not caused me irritation. I previously owned the E-one ($3k) and also the VISS unit ($550) but both were loud, slow, uncomfortable and involved replacing their bulbs at a significant cost so I went looking for another system to add to my IPL collection. So far it’s the very best device I own and it gets extra points for being cordless. I find the intensity to be marginally stronger when plugged in as opposed to when operated cordlessly and also a little faster between flashes. So far hair takes longer to grow back and is thinner and sparse. I’ll report back with how it performed over time and particularly how permanent/long lasting the results were, especially when compared against my other devices. For now I can undoubtedly say that this is by far the very best home IPL on the market.

Works AMAZINGLY! – I’ve been using this for 8 months and I can honestly say, it has significantly reduced hair on my body. The stragglers that grow back are finer. I’m using every month now for maintenance and even then, I am asking myself if I should stretch the duration between treatment. So easy, quick and convenient. I have concerns on battery life when used as… Read more · 1
a cordless as I’ve read the batteries can NOT be replaced so I plug into the wall every time and works well because its quicker between zaps. I dropped the setting down a level on sensitive areas and even then seem to be effective. I have dark hair and olive skin.
Pleasantly surprised – I purchased this for an emergency/trial as all laser hair salons were closed due to lockdown. I was quite skeptical given I had previously purchased and used the Remington I-light and was not overly impressed with. However, the Philips has been pretty impressive. Previously, I’d been getting laser on my face and neck, at a laser clinic place for… Read more · 1
the past 3 years, every 6 weeks! This is due to hormonal, background (European) and PCOS which I just couldn’t seen to stop. Now, this is a big statement and in no way is the unit like the salon machines but I have noticed a huge slowing in the hair growth especially on my face. It’s still early days and I’ve been trying on other areas of the body and seems To be working too. The downside is that it does take a lot of time to do a treatment and the unit tends to overheatz However, for an at home unit, at the price paid, I’m quite pleased and happy with this purchase.
Good, but caused hives – I’ve been using the Philips Lumea Bri956 according to the instructions , and the first 2 times went very well. The third time, which was this Sunday, I developed a bad hives case the next day, which is still persisting. I contacted the customer support team and they told me to contact the local retailer and to stop using the device. The retailer… Read more · 1
is just a seller, he is not going to solve my urticaria or show me similar testimonies and also this is an expensive product to stop using it just after the third time. I just wanted to know if problems similar to mine have ever been reported and how was the procedure followed after the report and what were the advices given from the experts. If not, you have a testimony now, so you can inform other buyers, before they make a purchase.
Waste of money and time ! – I have a skin tone type IV-V (mid brown) Wich is within the recommendations of this machine and that didn’t work at all . That was only showing that was not suitable for my skin Show details
Hi there, thank you for your review.… Read more
Below average product and pathetic customer service – I followed all the instruction for the products but was left with burn marks all over my hands and leg after first use.I contacted customer service but did not get any assistance rather than waiting for months with burn marks to get a response that did not make any difference to what i went through. Never ever going to buy any product or recommend Philips solely due to pathetic customer service. Show details

Significant reduction in hair growth – I have used the Phillips IPL Prestige on my legs and on my arms. I made sure I have completed the recommended four sessions with two weeks gap in between the sessions. I must say my hair growth has reduced almost by 80% after the first four sessions. I have been irregular in the last 3-4 months. However, I am impressed to see that the hair hasn’t… Read more
grown back much. I’m very happy with the purchase. This can be used plugged in or without connecting to the power source. Noticed that it’s quicker to use when plugged in.
Fast Results After 4 Treatments , But High Price – I have got the philips lumea bri959 model 9 months ago i have used it every tow weeks for 5 sessions and then once a month, I start to see results after the 4 treatments , it have seen 60% hair reduction and i continue to use the device once a month and after 8 treatments I did'n see any noticeable hair in my legs and hands , i didn't use the… Read more · 1
philips bri959 on my face, maybe i will.
I like the result i got and i hope this result stay for long,
I will write update after 6 months from now
it's somehow pricey but i think it deserve
Absolutely love it! – This model came with 3 extra heads and can be used corded or with battery power. I waited until this model because my previous expensive laser (!) device from the US stopped working when the rechargeable battery became worn out. Being able to use this IPL device while connected makes it also faster than using it with battery power. I use the… Read more · 1
glide method to cover larger areas while plugged in. Faster and no need to constantly press the button to fire.
While the laser had only a tiny head, this model can cover legs so much faster!
I have long legs and take about 15 min. I also use the body attachment and with practice can now use it on knees and feet/ankles/toes with no problems.
Will update on results in a few months.
For now I am happy to have a quick way to eliminate hair without need to shave daily! No nicks and cuts when in a rush! It is such a relief.
This is perfect, can't live without it – Loved using this product! The attachments are great to help hair loss across different parts of the body. The Lumea Prestige detects your skin tone and works its magic! So quick and easy to use.
