On which areas can I use my Philips Body Groomer?

Published on 10 October 2023
You can use your Philips Bodygroomer to trim and shave your body hair below the neckline for example armpits, chest and pubic area. All Philips products consisting of a shaving foil are skin friendly. Philips is not a dermatological authority and cannot give skin, hair, or nail advice on individual cases.

Before using a Philips product with a shaving foil, it is good practice to visually check the device to ensure the shaving foil is still intact. To minimize the wear of the foil, safely store your product and protect the foil from outside pressure or impacts by attaching a cap or comb. Replace the foil immediately when it is damaged, via our webshop  or your local Consumer Care.  

We do not recommend using it on your face or head. This is because you will not get desired results, and it may also cause skin damage. Some products come with additional attachments to use on sensitive areas, like your pubic region. You can find more information about using these attachments this in your user manual or can contact us.

If you are still unsure of using Philips devices with a shaving foil, please consult your physician or healthcare professional who can examine whether your skin is suitable for this type of grooming device.
Areas to use Philips Body Groomer

Can I use my Philips Body Groomer without a comb?

The dual-sided body groomers let you switch between shaving & trimming. The shaver with rounded tips and foil adapts to the contours of your body for a smooth shave. The trimmer with comb has 5 different lengths for trimming anywhere on your body.

For trimming your body hairs, we advise using the integrated trimmer of the product with the adjustable trimming comb. The trimmer can be adjusted to 5 different lengths (1/8”(3mm) to 7/16”(11mm)).

When you want to trim hairs without the comb, limit the time to 5 minutes because the product will become warm. Consider the trimmer without comb trims close to the skin, do not use the trimmer head on sensitive areas e.g. pubic region without the comb attachment. You can use your groomer to trim and shave your body hair below the neckline for example armpits, chest and pubic area. We do not recommend using it on your face or head. This is because you will not get desired results, and it may also cause skin damage.
