Description

With the Braun Silk Expert Pro 5 PL5243, you get a complete hair removal set. You can use the Venus Extra Smooth razor blade to shave your skin smooth beforehand, and use the extra wide attachment to remove hair from large areas of your body. The IPL device has 400,000 light flashes and 10 light intensity settings. That way, you're ensures of smooth legs for up to 20 years. The built-in skin sensor detects your skin tone during hair removal and automatically adjusts the light intensity accordingly. As a result, you always use the correct light intensity and prevent damage to your skin. After use, you can store the light-based hair removal device in the included pouch together with the attachments.

Note: light-based hair removal works based on the contrast between your hair and skin tone. This means most devices don't work on black skin and the devices aren't suitable to remove gray, white, or red hair.

Note: an IPL device isn't suitable when you're pregnant, take certain medication, or have freckles. Read the manual before use to check if this device is suitable for you.

Good device with visible results

  • Easy to use
  • Set intensity automatically
  • Various headpieces for different body zones

I have now used the product 5x and my hair growth is already a lot less. It doesn't hurt, but in the beginning I put it on a lower setting to get used to it, this went very well! I am very satisfied with it and hope that in a few times I can switch to once a month maintenance. It is a pricey device, but if I were to do this at a salon I would lose more money in the longer term.

Total disappointment

  • Heads can't be cleaned easily

My experience is very negative. First of all, the body hair didn't decrease, instead in some parts it has become more hairy. I have dark hair, and my skin is closer to the lighter tones. I've been using this since September, almost 5 months, and I get no results. This is really frustrating because I do it once a week, and it takes 5-6 hours (including shaving the hair and the laser treatment, full body).

Even in those 7 days between the 2 sessions, I see the same hair growth as if I haven't done any hair removal procedure. If I knew this, I'd have just used a razor once a month.

About shooting consistently, after the first 2-3 months, the device started making a clicking sound before each shoot. Sometimes it triggers that sound for 2-3 times before every shoot. It makes things so slow, it takes almost 2 seconds every time. Since the impact is so low, I want to laser some parts 2-3 times and with this slowness, it's taking my whole evening, and I'm about to stop using the silk expert.

Maybe it works better for others, but my experience is a disaster, and I don't recommend you to pay this much money. Even if it turned out to be a good outcome for me, it would still be less effective than the laser treatments they do in clinics. So be prepared to be disappointed.

very good device

After 6 laser treatments (no treatment promises to be 100% hair-free after all) I decided to purchase the Braun to flash away the leftover hair. Hurts much less than a real laser treatment (even in the intimate places on the maximum setting). Have only used it for 2 weeks so don't know what the result will be yet. In any case, ease of use is TOP. Both me and my daughter flash our upper lip, chin, legs, armpits and entire intimate area. For the intimate area I recommend having someone else flash you because it is a bit more sensitive there.
