The media could not be loaded. I have the original well known IPL hair remover device that I bought many years ago from a different manufacturer. I can tell you that it hurt to use the thing! I had to use ice before to help numb my skin (approved by the company) because it was so painful. But this Mithlux IPL Laser is actually cold when it touches the skin and you (at least for me) don’t feel any heat or pain. As shown in my video I used it on my arm (which was VERY dry and made me look 10 years older! LOL!) and there was no feeling of pain or heat. I used it in the video (and off) on high intensity just to see what would happen and I honestly didn’t feel much of anything. I even tried it on my chin where I have a few wild hairs and it was not painful or hot at all. I can’t try it on my legs because there is no hair at all anymore. Actually my arms haven’t had hair in years either but wanted to show how it was used in the video. I will say that after the treatment I did feel an ever so slight tingling for about 5 or 10 minutes. That is it. There is quite a bit to read over in the little booklet that comes with it , mostly warnings and precautions but it’s simple to use. What’s nice is that you can decide when you are ready for the ‘flash’ (aka: zap) by pressing the button that looks like a shield. My other IPL machine zapped when it touched skin whether you were ready or not. There are different levels of intensity and also modes of operation. If you are doing the bikini area there is a pre-set for it. Face, there is a preset for that too. If you want it to flash continuously while you move along it can do that too. It’s nice that there are options and I love that the delivery window is COLD…what a difference that makes! This device itself is sleek, easy to hold and use and small so it doesn’t take much space. Of course, the true test is how well it actually gets rid of hair or reduces it. This review is about how it is designed, features and the feel on your skin. Whether or not it does what it is meant to do only time will tell. So far, I like what I see, the options and how it feels on my skin. Read more
I’ve noticed some thinning with this device, but I’m still seeing progress in the areas where I still need to pluck. It hasn’t been perfect yet, but it is helping reduce hair over time, and I’m hopeful that with continued use, plus the hormone medication I’m taking, I’ll get even better, more permanent results. It’s been gentle on my skin and works well overall, so I’ll keep using it and see how things improve! It is easy to clean, and for the sturdiness I do feel the price is on point. It is very straight forward and easy to use. Holding it is straight forward. I have had only minor irritation, but I have sensitive skin and just give areas a break when needed. Read more
It seems to be working. I didn't notice any pain or discomfort, which was impressive. It feels ergonomic and comfortable in my hand. It's easy enough, despite the lengthy instructions. You definitely have to be consistent with applying it to see results, but that's to be expected with all IPL devices. It seems like a very solid option to get for the given price point. I'd say it's more than worth it. Read more
Love this thing! I really like how the frame around the light gets cold while in use. The cooling effect probably even helps it from over heating which is great cause the one I owned before this one would get to hot after using it in the higher setting for more that 5 mins and turn itself off. I have only used it once so far but it seems great! As far as results go, results will take some time but I will definitely update this to let everyone know. The instructions were very easy to understand and it came with a really nice razor which is great cause the one that came with my old one was very cheap and I was scared to even use it cause it looked like it might cut my legs up trying to use it but the one that comes with this one is way better and the glasses that come with it fold up really small which is also cool.

Caution required. And after reading all of the directions apparently my skin type (tanned cream) and my hair color (Platinum) are not recommended for the use of this item. There are lots of safety warnings and discussions and some safety pieces provided (glasses) and the instructions are quite extensive. I think if I used it a few times it would be easier and not feel quite so complicated. But right now off the get-go -either know what you're doing already, or be prepared for a learning curve. Very very nice packaging! And the item itself looks so luxurious... Very proprietary power source device as well. Read more
Why I Got This Laser appointments are expensive, and shaving every other day gets old fast. I wanted something that felt professional but was still safe and easy to use at home — especially for sensitive areas. What I Liked ✔️ The sapphire contact surface feels cool and soothing on the skin ✔️ Easy to adjust — 6 energy levels and settings for face, underarms, bikini, and legs ✔️ Compact, ergonomic design makes it comfortable to hold and use ✔️ Quartz lamp = long-lasting device life (feels like a smart investment) ✔️ Quiet, sleek, and surprisingly stylish for something that zaps hair follicles What Could Be Better ➖ No display screen — would be nice to see settings more clearly ➖ Takes consistent use to see results, like all IPL devices ➖ Works best if you have light skin + dark hair (not ideal for all skin tones) Would I Recommend It? Yes, if you're looking for a pain-free, lower-maintenance way to reduce hair over time — without the cost and hassle of going to a clinic. Read more
