Braun IPL Long-Lasting Hair Removal System for Women and Men Silk Expert Pro 3 PL3221 Permanent Visible Hair

I really wish I would have taken a before and after of my legs, this product is amazing. After the fifth week I have basically no hair growth on my legs. The reason why I purchased this item is partially medical as I frequently get boils in my inner thighs both from rubbing and hair follicles. I did some research and they said the only way to stop the boils from happening is to 1. lose weight (which I am working on), and 2. to laser the inner thighs so that the hair follicles stop getting infected. Well it's working amazingly. As someone with PCOS this has been a great help and I will be purchasing again once I run out of flashes on this one. I love the fact that now after once as week for six weeks I only have to do the laser once a month. I never have to shave again! Read more

Much faster and quieter than my old iLight unit... and you don't have to buy replacement cartridges. I haven't had it for long enough to tell if it is going to be as effective or not, but the instructions say that you can zap the hair twice as often so it certainly should be. If you have light skin & dark hair these machines work well without much discomfort. The darker your skin (like even if it is moderately tanned) the hotter your skin will get during treatments.

Needs to specify that it does NOT work on blondes and gray hairs!!! Read more

I have adrenal issues that cause hair growth on my chin. I also have what might be considered the ideal laser hair removal scenario. I am pasty, hide-me-from-the-sun white, and I grow dark hair with dark roots. I've gotten professional-grade laser hair removal for my problem before, and it is VERY good, not least of all because estheticians can use the highest laser setting on me TWICE in one visit (again, very white here, also high tolerance for discomfort). This at-home device can't compare with an office visit if you are someone like me who is lucky enough to have the ideal skin/hair/tolerance combo for a high laser setting. I would, nonetheless, recommend the device. It's easy to use and slows hair growth at least a little. I'll come out of the gate and say, given I have prior history with laser hair removal, I am not using this device as recommended. I do 2-3 passes when I use it because it didn't do much for me when I did single passes. (Please note, this is not me recommending that to you!) To me, it's virtually painless. I don't even experience redness after. I would describe an in-office "zap" as a very, very sharp snap with a rubber band that leaves your skin sensitive after; I've need a little hydrocortisone cream after. This at-home device's "zap" is more like the gentle snap of a rubber band shot from too far away. This is indicative of the power level you're working with here. It's why the device's instructions have you using it once a week for a while, whereas even after the first visit with an esthetician, you usually have a 4-6 week wait. In a nutshell, don't expect office-visit quality from this device. They are not going to sell spa/dermatologist-level devices to consumers for safety reasons. Expect to do at-home "treatments" a little more often for consistent results. It's a decent trade-off, certainly in terms of cost. EYE SAFETY My one complaint with the device regards eye safety. In the manual, Braun says this: "Before pushing the treatment button, look away from the device to avoid the bright light. In seldom cases, a user may find the flash too bright. However, there is no safety risk associated with this. For increased comfort, we recommend treating in a well-lit room to help reduce the perceived brightness." I guess this is fine, but I feel it's cheap of Braun. Just include some IPL glasses! Yes, the device's laser is relatively low-powered and will only work if the device is tucked tightly to your skin, but there's still that burst of light and Braun knows it. And, no, sunglasses won't actually help. They are not rated for these wavelengths. Don't bother buying any IPL safety glasses or goggles on Amazon, either, as they're not certified; they're almost certainly feel-good scams. As far as I can tell, you would need to buy from a specialty store. Real ones appear to cost around $50, but it was hard for me to tell. Personally, I've opted to go without safety eyewear for now, but I am following Braun's advice to turn my head and/or close my eyes each time I activate the laser. The main reason I decided to go without safety eyewear myself is Braun's website and device manual are very cagey about the kind of IPL eyewear you'd even need for this device; they tell you nothing. I think they want to downplay just how LOW-powered these devices are, if anything, but I find it supremely annoying and won't be surprised if they get in trouble for it down the road. Bottom line? Decent at-home device, but at the end of the day, these are still lasers. Really consider your eyes. I'm skeptical about how much Braun is. Read more

Just follow the instructions and it'll work as intended. I IPL'd my legs & under arms a year and a half ago and have only needed to re-do the process once. Read more

I had no idea this was even being sold. my Gynecologist told me that she uses this device, when I asked her about facial hair, I started menopause at 55 about 7 months ago, and my small amount of facial hair got a lot more filled in and courser, I bought this right away and have had great results!!! on the hair that is still black, I am still getting the gray facial hair and it's not the company's fault, the machine is working as it's supposed to, so my advice is don't wait, get it ASAP and stop all the growth when you can.. same with arm and leg hairs, all my dark arm hairs are gone, just very light ones left and they look natural. I would give this 1000 stars if I could. Read more
