Hamburg – September 11, 2026 -- Philips has unveiled the Lumea IPL 9900 Pro, a new at-home hair removal device priced at €799.99, now available on philips.de and through retailers.
Live audio feedback guides users through treatments
The device pairs with the Lumea IPL app, which tracks movement in real time during leg and arm treatments. It delivers live audio cues to help users maintain correct technique, while step-by-step visual guidance for legs ensures no area is missed.
Results can last up to five years with monthly upkeep
Philips reports hair reduction of more than 80% on legs after just two treatments. After an initial treatment phase, users need only one monthly touch-up session to maintain smooth skin for up to five years, according to the company.
Sensors read skin tone to personalize each session
The 9900 Pro uses SenseIQ Pro and SmartSkin sensor technology to automatically detect individual skin tone and recommend optimal light settings. The app also generates hair growth reports and personalized recommendations to track progress over time.
The device meets EU and US regulatory standards
The Lumea IPL 9900 Pro works by emitting gentle light pulses that push hair follicles into a resting phase during their growth cycle, causing hairs to shed and reducing regrowth over time. Philips states the device is certified under the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) and cleared by the US FDA, based on comparisons with other portable at-home IPL devices currently on the market.
Buyers can extend the warranty by registering online
Philips offers a warranty of up to five years on the Lumea IPL 9900 Pro for customers who register the device on Philips.com within 90 days of purchase.
