Customer Reviews
Works great so far
To give you some background, I have fair skin and thick, dark hair. When I shave, stubble is still visible at the skin surface, and when I shave my armpits, it always look like I haven't even shaved. So I'm one of those people. I'm cursed.
I've tried most hair removal methods, like shaving, Nair, wax and epilation. Chemicals burn my skin, so I scrapped that back in my teens. Since then, I've used a combination of epilation and shaving, but because the epilator hurts, and hurts far too much to treat my underarms or bikini line, I've been toying with the idea of laser for a long time. I decided to buy this before I invested $3-5k in a series of treatments (for pretty much everything).
When I first received the SensEpil, I did most of my body: underarms, legs, bikini area, arms, and a bit of my stomach. The bulb was shot by the time I finished my arms, but I did get my full body covered. It takes a while, about as long as it takes to use an epilator, maybe a little less.
It can hurt in some areas. For most of my body, at the highest setting, it only stings periodically (sort of like a light rubberband snap), but in some sensitive areas, it was tough to take. But bear in mind, that's the highest setting - there are five. At the lowest setting, I didn't really feel it at all.
The initial effect was minimal. On my arms, which I didn't shave, the hair was singed a bit. Elsewhere, it left me a little stubbly - I later shaved and it was fine. My guess is that the flash of the light singes surface hairs but treats the roots. So, the first three days, it didn't look like anything was happening, but by the fourth day or so, I noticed that when I shaved, my legs were extremely smooth. Then I noticed that my underarms looked a hundred times better - after shaving, there was very little visible stubble, which was a first for me.
When I noticed improvement, I bought a new bulb and then went over my body again two weeks later (it recommends a treatment every two weeks). Again, the bulb lasted through my whole body and it hasn't burned out yet, though I bought another for backup. Overall, I'm noticing a gradual reduction in hair. My armpits look great, there's significant hair reduction on my arms and legs. The only area that's showing only a slight reduction is my bikini line, possibly because the hair is so coarse and dense. But I am noticing a reduction, and I'm going to keep it up.
The only reason why I've given it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it does cost a bit, given that aside from the initial cost, you should expect to buy a bulb for each treatment. It's nothing compared to professional laser costs - consider $50 a treatment vs. $500 and up (for the whole body). I'll update my review over the next few months with remarks on its effectiveness.
Update: It's still working great and I'm officially in love with this machine. I have essentially no stubble under my arms - I've never seen them like this before - and the hair on my arms and legs has gone way down. Pubic hair area is fading out at a slower rate, but I'm still happy with the progress.
Very impressed with the results
I was very impressed with Silk'n's results, only after a couple of sessions one can notice how well the product works the hair just starts disappearing. The price is pretty affordable too if you compare it to the cost of shaving or waxing for life lol, or the professional hair removal at a clinic. So it's not only no pain, money saving and actually works its available now to everyone. I really recommend to everyone to give it a try.
