The best self care gift you can give
on January 14, 2023
Posted by: Michelle Y
from Keyes, CA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had professional laser treatments done in an office setting before. In comparison, the Braun IPL laser hair removal system is the exact product to bring this high end treatment home for a much lower cost and bigger value. There are 3 different attachments included so that you can customize for the area you are treating. The guide included in the package suggests treating a small area as a test, and then treating once a week for 4-6 weeks. It is imperative you use the skin tone and body hair chart on the packaging to determine if you are a good candidate for this safe, effective treatment. In my experience, it hurt way less than I experienced in the professional setting, and I got to do it myself in the comfort of my own home. Stopping when I needed to, and resuming. I wouldn’t suggest any sun exposure for a couple days after treatment, so winter is the best time to handle the hair! The German design ensures you get a well made, quality instrument for such an important task. It is so effective, I won’t need it much longer!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Response from us.braun.comBy Aizaz Khalid, The Braun Team, January 17, 2023
We're glad to hear that you're a fan of our Braun IPL, Michelle. However, we're sorry that you may have experienced some discomfort while using it. We can assure you that our IPL is thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. Some people will experience slight discomfort (e.g. heat or redness of the skin) when using the device, and this is normal. You may feel heat and tingling when activating the flash, followed by redness in the skin, and this type of reaction usually disappears within 24 hours. We hope this is helpful. We'd also like to learn more and gather some additional details for our Safety Team, so please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 when you can.

Braun Silk expert hair reduction system
on December 30, 2019
Posted by: shannon
from warren,MI
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 hair reduction system and it works as I expected. It was an easy set up process. I started with my leg to see how it would work and it works quite well. I thought the light was a bit bright though. The box did say 9 minutes to treat but my first time it took me over 30 minutes maybe it will speed up as I get more familiar with the product. I have light skin and dark hair which is the perfect candidate as well for this product. I've always considered laser hair removal but couldn't really afford it I would say this product is better than other products used for shaving. I like the results I got from it and I would recommend this to my family and friends. I'm one who has to shave everyday and this product after one use I noticed hardly any stubble for up to 5 days which is a big improvement for me. I will have to continue using this product for the 12 weeks to see full results but so far I love it. It doesn't hurt its just a tidiest process but I'm willing to do it to see results in hair reduction. I like that this product is made for your whole body pretty much as well anywhere hair grows. I would purchase this product over other products while its a bit more pricey I like better results. I was not aware of this product before participating in this program,

Excited for the long-term results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 PL3111 IPL says it works for 300,000 flashes which can be up to 16 years for one person. It is super easy to use. I recommend wearing sunglasses while using just to be extra safe. I did not experience any side effects and it is not painful at all. You hear a zap and see a red light flash. I've only used this twice and it says 12 weeks are needed to determine results so I will continue using and hope to find I have less hair. It is important to read all of the directions and precautions to make sure this is right for you. I received a free product in exchange for my honest review.

This product is great!

from Knox,TN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The way you use the Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 is you plug it in no batteries or charger required. You want to remove all hair first . Then make sure your skin is nice and clean . This device will measure your skin tone and will set the correct power needed for you. Press the treatment button and your treatment will begin. You have to go spot by spot till done. You will need to use once a week for 12 weeks to start .Then you can use once a month after the 12 weeks is up. I have had great results with this device. If you are looking to remove hairs for good on your body I would highly recommend.

Love this!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this product and so glad I've tried it. I have thick brown hair and have had issues with excess hair that annoyed me ever since I was a child. I have tried creams, waxing, shaving.. it all gets monotonous and kind of frustrating after awhile. I was interested in trying this specifically for my upper lip and my underarms. This was relatively comfortable to use and I started noticing a decrease in hair growth in about 2 weeks. I'm still using it and hopefully will continue seeing progress!

Amazing!!

from Wrightwood ca
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's only been a few weeks and already my body hair is getting more sparse. It doesn't hurt at all and the laser knows when it's already been over an area so you don't go over it again. I absolutely love this product! It's really helping with my PCOS body hair. Thank you Braun!

Better than epilating.
on February 4, 2020
Posted by: EmiRose
from Waverly, Ohio
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After around 2-3 years of epilating, my hair had, for whatever reason, started to grown in ingrown. Around 50% of the hair on my legs was coming in ingrown and I had to give up epilating for good.
The fact that people seem to confuse IPL and epilating is ridiculous to me!
Epilating was beyond painful, and most of the progress could be undone with a month of shaving.
I have thick, course hair, and very light skin, and it made my hair very noticeable when it grew in.
Even immediately after shaving, you could still see my hair follicles as little dots under my skin, and my underarms had this 5'clock shadow, I hated it, and that was why I had turned to epilating, despite it being so painful.
Using an IPL has been head and shoulders above epilating, it's faster, painless (in my case), and super effective! I'm only a month of use in, and I could easily get away with skipping my next treatment without anyone noticing the hair! My hair is growing in very thin and light and much more slowly, and at least 40% isn't growing in at all between treatments!
I've never had laser hair removal (despite considering it numerous times)
But I can't imagine it being but more effective than this IPL. I'm in love with it!

I was really skeptical, but this actually works

from Midland, GA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used this on my underarms for a couple months and the hair is barely there anymore. You cannot have red, blonde, or gray hair, which it states on the packaging. I would definitely recommend.
