[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This at home later hair removal kit is amazing. It does a wonderful job removing hairs without any discomfort. It does take a few try to get it to work but once or does then you're left with smooth skin. Make sure to shave first because it will not work on longer haired. It's super cute and comes in a nice car too take places out leave sitting on a shelf.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Thanks for your review! We're so glad you're enjoying your experience with Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 IPL. You're correct that all hair should be removed from the treatment area before each treatment for a smooth experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product almost 4 weeks ago and have been using it since the moment it arrived! I've had friends use this product and rave about it so I was so excited to receive it! I have been using the product on my upper lip, chin and underarm area and in just 4 weeks I have notice a HUGE reduction in the amount of hair that grows! I can't recommend this product enough! It's the most affordable in home hair removal product I have ever used! I can't wait to keep using it and have no doubts it will remove all hair areas I have been treating!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this Braun for almost one month and I can already see a difference. I am so excited about under arm hairs removal because it is something I’ve always wanted. I use this device all over my body. Under chin hairs even. It will take a little more time to really see a difference but I noticed after month one the results are promising.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Braun IPL device is a great alternative for an at home hair removal treatment versus expensive laser removal at the salon. The device comes in a very pretty light pink case and has additional head attachments as well as a razor. The device itself is very easy to use and the frequency is determined by your skin tone. I did feel a little uncomfortable when using it under my armpits as it stung and got a little too hot. However, using it on my legs has been a breeze. I’ve used it a total of 4 times already and actually noticed some decrease in hair growth, especially on my legs. I am excited to continue using it for even better results!
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're so glad that you're already noticing some results, Anna! Thanks for taking time out of your day to review this product, however, we're sorry that it's a little uncomfortable to use under your armpits. While safety is at the forefront of what we do, and we do have checks in place, the skin under your arm is generally darker, meaning it's absorbing more light energy, likely being the cause of the discomfort. Your experience is important to us, and we'd love to hear from you about this. Please call us at 800-272-8611.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Been wanting to try this because I have friend who has had great results. I haven’t had this long enough to report on the hairlessness, but so far been reading the directions and steps to use it & if you’re nervous, the directions alone are not too complicated & I’ve never had a bad product from Braun.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing hair removal product!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am obsessed with this Braun at-home hair removal product. I’ve tried everything in the past and this is the very best. It works so well and I love that I no longer have to go in for laser hair removal treatments that were so expensive!
Firstly, this product really works. I’ve been using it for about a month and I am amazed. I have started to see less growth from my hair follicles. It works really well pretty quickly. I am so impressed with this product.
I also love that it’s painless. It doesn’t hurt at all and works well. It’s nice that it comes with a shaver and glasses to protect you while using it. I also love the packaging. It’s super nice looking and chic. Makes me happy to look at this Braun product.
All in all, I thrilled with this Braun at home hair removal. It works so well! My hair already started growing back much less, with only using it for one month. This product is saving me so much money on in salon treatments and is a product I will cherish forever!
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used the Braun - NEW Silk·expert Pro 5 IPL with Precision Cap twice on my legs, underarms, and bikini area but I can already tell it's working! It's been week over a week since the last time I used it and I barely have any regrowth at all yet!

Incredible results, super happy so far!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've tried all sorts of methods with body hair over the years. Shaving, waxing, chemicals, embracing the natural look. Never have I had such impressive results with so little effort or discomfort. Totally amazing. I was intimidated by the IPL unit at first. The directions were so short, I had to be missing something. But no. It really is that easy. Shave and dry treatment area to remove hair. Plug it in. Touch any button to turn it on. Use the sensitivity button to dial it down if needed. Press the device against the skin. It needs to be completely against the skin in order to scan properly. If you have good contact and it senses that there is a difference in tone between the skin and hair shaft below the surface, you'll get a white flash meaning good to go. Push the big treatment button and it'll flash light energy at the spot. You can glide or stamp. It took me a while to figure out the gliding; you have to maintain good skin contact while sliding along. Once you get the hang of it, it really only takes a few minutes to do a treatment. On some areas, like around the ankle or along the shin bone, I get better contact if I angle the device instead of trying to go straight across. My first treatment I used the lowest, extra gentle setting. I have very sensitive, very dry skin, and I was a bit concerned it wouldn't work out for me. There was a little heat and a little sting, but nothing even close to getting a wax. Even from the first treatment, I was so impressed by the results. The slight discomfort did not last long, and my very sensitive skin didn't react at all. My underarms and legs have felt smoother for longer, and shaving touch ups are so much faster because the razor does not get clogged with hair. I've done the treatment a total of three times now, and worked my way up to using it at full strength. The device does get hotter, but taking a very short break kept it a comfortable experience. I'm now three days post treatment number three, have not shaved again yet, and I would feel completely comfortable wearing shorts and a tank top out in public. The hair that is still growing is coming in super slow. I'll keep doing the treatments for a few more weeks, but I'm already thrilled with the results! Highly recommend, absolute best hair removal device ever.
I would recommend this to a friend!

We're glad to hear that you're a fan of our Braun IPL. However, we're sorry you've had this experience with some discomfort and heat. We can assure you that our products are thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed, and we'll be sure to share this with our team. If you feel that the IPL treatment is too hot, you can reduce the energy. Once you get used to the feeling, you can continue with max. energy at the next treatment. Some people will experience slight discomfort (e.g. heat or redness of the skin) when using the device – 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 gather some more details for our Safety Team, so please give us a call at (800) 272-8611 when you can.
