From the manufacturer
What is IPL?
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) hair removal technology works beneath the skin surface by targeting the melanin, the pigment in your hair follicle, helping to break the cycle of hair re-growth. This stimulation by the light has a ‘damaging’ effect on the root and after a few treatment sessions, will inhibit the root to produce new hair. With continued, periodic use, the light energy helps prevent unwanted hair from reaching the skin surface. Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 IPL uses our unique SensoAdapt technology to provide safe and effective long lasting reduction in hair regrowth.**
IS IPL RIGHT FOR YOUR TREATMENT AREA?
Braun Silk-expert Pro IPL technology works best on areas with high contrast between hair color and skin tone. The technology targets the pigment in your hair, but since hair color and skin tone vary across your entire body, Braun Silk-expert Pro IPL is not suitable for every part of your body.
If the area you want to treat (bikini, underarms, upper lip, legs) has light skin tones with natural blonde to dark brown to black hair color, then IPL is the right treatment choice for long lasting hair reduction.

If the area you want to treat (bikini, underarms, upper lip, legs) has light skin tones with very blonde, red, grey or white hair color, then IPL is not the right treatment choice for permanent hair reduction. For areas with fair skin and light hair colors, an epilator like the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex would be a more ideal hair removal solution.

If the area you want to treat (bikini, underarms, upper lip, legs) has dark skin tones, then IPL is not the right treatment choice for permanent hair reduction. Since dark skin contains more melanin, it could absorb more than the safe, recommended amount of light energy which may cause discomfort. For areas with dark skin, an epilator like the Braun Silk-épil 9 Flex would be a more ideal hair removal solution.

So pain, for me: It does not hurt very much. I am using it on under arms which have little hair left post laser about 5 years ago. Also for every part of bikini/brazilian locations, it is mild discomfort, and fast. For me the sensation is like when you open a really hot oven and the air hits you, it is a hot hot air feeling in a small concentrated spot. There is a *slight* sting sensation where the follicles are, but it is hard to really tell what is going on. It lasts so briefly that it is not bad. I think that the more discomfort I get is from where the hair is longer, I think the long hair kind of burns up and gets hot and touches the skin.
Sometimes where skin pigment is darker the sensor does not want to flash, but repositioning it will eventually figure it out. Skin pigment difference matter if you are interested in brazilian locations. Deeper skin tones down there may not flash.
It is MUCH MUCH less painful than salon laser. I had a really hard time with salon laser pain on legs, underarms and just basic inner thigh type bikini line. This is worlds better. I do not have to steel myself for this, it is not stressful. My legs have very little hair left so going over them is pain free and fast. My skin is not that sensitive to this device, and if I go over a spot twice there is no after effect or burn. I try not to just in case it sensitizes over time. The most awkward part for me has been contorting to get the sensor flat on the skin, especially for bikini.
I recommend getting a pari of dark sunglasses and wearing them while you use it. Gas station/supermarket wrap arounds with black lenses were what I bought. The light is super bright, and comes through closed eye lids. If you get migraines it may trigger one bc the light is super bright, and the rhythmic flashing may just bother you. If you have sensitive eyes to bright light, wear dark glasses. I wear them and turn away, or just put a hand over my eyes if it is not a lot of contortion to hold the device and press the button.
One month update: I love this device. I use it more than once a week, I am impatient and have zero effects on my skin after using, no damage or burning. I do not rec doing this, just what I did. Progress with Brazilian areas has been going well. One month+ in and I now have experienced hairs falling out in parts of the brazilian area, leaving entirely hairless smooth areas behind. I have never had this level of hairlessness even with waxing years ago. Not all areas respond the same. Some still have clear regrowth with stubble typical of post shaving. I think i am a strong responder, and I was to laser as well. Underarms have no regrowth a month in, for the few hairs that were left post laser 5 years ago. Legs same. I randomly run it over thighs and have less hair, which was sparse post laser to begin with, plus I am older and have less hair than when young. I no longer feel as strong a need to wear sunglasses, and doing it in a bright room in day both helps me see all the hairs, and also lessens contrast so the light flash is less strong feeling. I feel zero apprehension doing this in brazilian area, minimal pain if there is a close shave. The razor that came with it is ridiculously good, and I ordered more blades. The main issue with Brazilian locations is contorting to angle the device to get all the spots. I get a little lazy and focus on easier spots. I highly recommend this to people with the right skin/hair contrast to work (see chart for hair/skin shades). I find it faster than laser, bc you don't need to wait many weeks between. It remains way less painful than laser, which was very painful for me. I feel like a salesperson for the device, it is so cool!!!
I tried using the continuous mode and it actually works really well. Just remember to keep moving incrementally in a line as you keep your finger on the button. This continuous mode makes it very fast to finish a large area like your legs.
I’ve used it for about 5 weeks now (5 sessions), and after the second session there was already a marked lessening of new hair growth. I was so happy. After 5 sessions I need to shave maybe once a week. Even then, I could get away with even less and no one would notice.
I haven’t had any ingrown hairs, which is why I wanted to stop having to shave - I always had ingrowns around my knees and my thighs. No more!
A funny thing - I’m older and I noticed in my under-arm area the only hairs growing are white! LOL. This is because the way the lasers work is they zap the root that is contrasting with your skin.
My skin is medium olive toned with black leg hair and the laser works very well. Occasionally on my arms if I have been out swimming and getting darker, the laser doesn’t want to work. I just lift it up and then try the area again until it works. So if your skin is darker than medium olive you might have more trouble. The product info has a skin color chart to let you know whether you will be a good candidate.
Overall this is an excellent product in its category. I experienced no skin discomfort. It’s easy to use and effective. I’m very happy with it.
