    Can Philips Lumea be used by men too?

    Published on 18 October 2024

    Yes, Lumea can be used by both women and men. There are, however, some sex-related restrictions. Please refer to the information below to find out more. 

    General restrictions

    Regardless of your sex, Lumea is not suitable to be used on wounds, moles, nipples, piercings, tattoos, etc. For the list of areas where Lumea is not suitable for use, see the user manual.

    Philips Lumea use by women

    Lumea can be used on the body and the female face below the cheekbone. Lumea is suitable for the following parts of the bikini area: the bikini line, pubic mound (mons pubis) and outer lips (labia majora). Lumea is not suitable for the inner lips (labia minora).

    Additionally, don’t use Lumea on the area between the anus and the vulva (perineum) and around the anus. These areas are highly sensitive and have thinner and darker skin. 

    Philips Lumea use by men

    Men must not use the device on the face and neck including all beard growing areas, nor on the whole genital area. This includes the penis, scrotum, the area between the anus and scrotum (perineum), or around the anus. The hairs in these areas have different characteristics. The skin may get burnt (with pain, prolonged skin redness and pigmentary changes). 

    In addition, do not use the device on the scalp or nipples.
