Effective and basically painless!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First, make sure you check out the chart to make sure this device is right for you! I was beyond impressed with the packaging for the device. It comes with a beautiful carrying case. Instructions are extremely user friendly. You plug it in and press any button to turn it on. You hold it up to your skin and the unit won’t work if you don’t have contact on all sides of the head. If you press and hold, it delivers “zaps” one after another so you glide it along the larger are you’re treating. Also the larger head works for this. The smaller head treats smaller areas. For smaller areas you just press once to deliver one single “zap”. Speaking of “zap” it doesn’t really hurt. The longer you use it, you t does tend to heat up and sting a tiny bit, but I wouldn’t describe it as pain. You use it once a week for 12 weeks and then monthly after that. I’m 4 weeks/treatments in on my legs and underarms and can already notice a difference. My hair isn’t growing back as rapidly. I’m also noticing less and thinner hair all together. After only 4 treatments I’m excited to see what it will be like after 12. Definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for effective at home hair removal!

Response from us.braun.comBy Aizaz Khalid, The Braun Team, January 16, 2023
We're so glad that you're loving your hair reduction results! We hope your other 8 weeks of treatments go as smoothly. While we have safety checks in place, it's possible that darker areas of your body may experience more of a zap, because it absorbs more light energy. When it comes to those areas, you may find the sensitive mode better suited for you. We care so much for you and your experience, so we'd love to hear from you about this and make your sessions even better. When you're free, please call us at 800-272-8611.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] this hair removal system does work but you must be diligent and put in the time and use it weekly until your hair growth stops. this kit comes with everything you would need. impressed. Easy to use, no settings to change or switch as the machine decides all that for you. takes the thought out of that.

Braun US - NEW Silk·expert Pro 5
on January 20, 2023
Posted by: RATASHIQ
from NY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Braun US NEW Silk Expert Pro 5 IPL is a great substitute for hair removal and it works amazingly! I have PCOS so I grow unsightly hair quickly and often! I love that I have access to this from the privacy of my own home and I can use it for whatever body part I want to remove all this hair. I highly recommend folks give this a try. You definitely will be making a great investment.

Noticeable results

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had laser hair removal professionally done in the past so I wasn't sure what to expect from an at home product. I was skeptical but after the first use I noticed hair in my deodorant that had fallen out naturally. As described, it should take weeks-months to fully see results (but that's expected of any permanent hair reduction technique) so the wait doesn't bother me. I'm excited and happy with this product!

Goodbye Body Hair
on January 23, 2020
Posted by: Kwier92
from Springfield, MO
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have very fair skin with dark black body hair. I've hated and struggled with it my whole life. I would have to shave at least every other day to keep from looking hairy! I've always wanted to do laser hair removal but it's expensive and not necessarily permanent. When I received the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 I was so excited to try it! I shaved with the included razor that night and did my first session. The Silk Expert Pro 5 has a nice simple design and is easy to use. The instructions were very clear and easy to follow. My first session on my legs and underarms was fast and basically pain free! I would say you feel a little discomfort (almost like a pinch) but nothing unbearable. After my first session I noticed my hair regrowth was a lot slower then normal. I didn't have to shave again for 4-5 days due to such slow regrowth. I've now used the Braun Silk Expert 5 for 4 sessions and the results are impressive! The hair that is still present on my legs and underarms is patchy and regrowing very slowly! I know that with continued use I will have great results and be hair free!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried a few different ipl's and even got it done professionally and this personal machine has worked better than my other one and the professional treatments. I am very skeptical but it is a lot better of a machine than the other ones on the market right now. I highly recommend

Easy at home IPL system!
on February 4, 2020
Posted by: jadeheart
from Longmont, CO
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The IPL is super easy to use and it works but after four weeks it's still not "permanent", hair is slower to grow and softer (I also was using it on the lower settings so that's probably why). I've also gotten actual laser hair removal at the clinic for under my arms and that worked much better than the IPL. However the IPL is easy to use and might be a good alternative for some folks who can't afford laser hair removal. I have lighter skin and very dark hair which makes it perfect for my skin tone and I've always done well with this. It was more painful that I anticipated - similar to laser hair removal pain on the higher settings on the lower ones I could barely feel it which was great! I'd try to find a gel to make it easier on your skin if you don't like pain.

No more painful bikini wax!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow wow wow this handheld IPL hair removal system is small enough to use with one hand, gentle on skin, fast, powerful and extremely easy to use!
Here's a little bit of why I love this soooo much.
* It comes in a case, no missing pieces because it's all contained in the case.
* It comes with 3 different razor heads one head is wide for use on larger body areas like arms, legs and chest. It also comes with two precision heads. Those are ideal for smaller/sensitive areas such as the bikini area or the face.
*It's VERY fast & powerful, flashing every 0.5 seconds meaning we don't have to spend long periods of time to use this.
* This is awesome.... It has a skin sensor that continuously reads your skin tone during the session and automatically adapts the light intensity.
* The Braun silk expert pro 5 has 10 intensity levels and two sensitive modes making this gentle on your skin.
* Best of all is you will have visible results in 4 weeks then every 1-2 months you should do a quick session just to maintain the smooth soft skin we all love.
Those are just a few of the reasons I'm head over heels for this Braun Silk expert Pro 5. I highly recommend everyone grab one for themselves, even the men will love using this. I give this a 100 out of 10 lol.
