Frequently asked questions
The Braun Silk Expert Pro5 uses Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) technology to target hair follicles, reducing hair growth by emitting gentle light pulses. The light is absorbed by the melanin in the hair, which then heats up and damages the follicle, leading to less hair growth over time. It's a safe and virtually painless method compared to traditional salon laser treatments.
Yes, the Braun Silk Expert Pro5 is designed for both women and men. It's versatile and can be used on a range of body parts, including the face, legs, arms, underarms, and bikini line. However, effectiveness can vary depending on individual hair and skin types.
Results vary by individual, but many users start to see a noticeable reduction in hair regrowth after just 4 weeks of using the Braun Silk Expert Pro5, with optimum results typically seen after 12 weeks of regular use. To maintain results, use the device every 1-2 months or as needed.
The Braun Silk Expert Pro5 is effective on a wide range of hair and skin types, but works best on individuals with darker hair and lighter skin tones, as IPL technology targets the melanin in the hair. It's not recommended for very dark skin or very light hair, including grey, red, or white, where IPL might be less effective or not recommended due to safety concerns.

If you are looking for a home solution to hair removal that is less painful and potentially more cost-effective than salon treatments, this device seems to be a strong candidate. Given its general effectiveness across a range of users and body areas, it's worth considering if you have the right skin/hair contrast.

TLDR: I have had folliculitis for all of my life. This is the best thing I've ever used to treat it. Read further for details Folliculitis is basically extreme ingrown hairs, and for 25+ years I've done my best to treat and deal with it. I have it everywhere that hair grows. Yes, everywhere. I've tried nearly everything in a reasonable price frame. Different shavers/creams/lotions, epilators, waxes, etc - I've even coated all my legs in toothpaste to dry out the infections to show my desperation. You can actually find me reviewing Tend Skin aftershave because it has been the best treatment, thus far, for helping me. It's basically rubbing alcohol, but it's the only thing that works. Before buying this I would say my recent schedule is shaving once a month. I still get ingrown hairs the entire time, but not with the searing pain of shaved legs that feel as if they've been cut by jagged glass. Not shaving at all isn't much different, as hairs shed and regrow I still have this issue with infections from hairs that can't break the top layer of my skin. When I do shave I go through at least 7 disposable shave heads (between how fast they dull and trying to reduce the infection spreading) and it takes well over an hour to do the whole thing. I was scared to try this because of how many infections and sores I deal with regularly. I spent an hour plus shaving a months worth of hair off, and before applying tend skin I went to work with IPL (per instruction), I used this product. It wasn't that hard to get the hang of tbh, keeping it flat and also not pressing into the skin really helps. Throughout the whole thing it didn't hurt in the slightest, but I had one tiny birthmark that it stung a little (not the beauty marks tho so that's weird), and I avoided my ankle tattoo altogether. I'm not sure why, but my skin felt better after the treatment than it does applying tend skin (aftershave). It felt relaxed and unirratated for once. I mean, when I shaved my legs they had that "jagged glass was here" feel, but after using the IPL, it didn't have that. In fact, I had to remind myself to not get careless and I should use tend skin for the long term effects, it gave me a false sense of comfort. I've been using this for well over a month now with beyond amazing results. Before shaving would take an hour plus and at least 7 shaver heads. Now it takes less than 20 minutes and 2 heads. I can complete the entire IPL process in less amount of time than I spent just shaving alone a year ago. I want to stress something. There has been one time in the last 10 years that I shaved within a week, and it caused so much pain and I have pictures showing how badly it hurt (the worst ever). Since I started IPL - I have been shaving once a week and have had the best results on my legs *ever*. I still get sores occasionally but not nearly in comparison. It is crazy to me how slowly, or not at all, the hairs have grown in since I started this. My bikini line is nearly non-existant. I'm not even on week 12, I'm on week 6 maybe? I have never once in my life had "smooth skin". It's always been tacky stubble, even after a fresh shave. Not now. I have --- days later --- skin completely devoid of hair and soft and smooth. It's honestly the first time ever for me. Seriously at 40, this is the first time for me. Even if this treatment didn't permanently remove hair, that doesn't matter that much to me. What it has done for me thus far is literally LIFE CHANGING - and I don't use that term ever. I could use this once a week while shaving my legs and even if it never stops hair from growing in it permanently, what it does inhibit would be an improvement for me - but thankfully it does deliver on stopping hair growth as well.

I've had this for half a year now, and I am still in shock about how effective it is. It worked!! My hair growth noticeably slowed down after the first couple of treatments. And I've been able to get rid of armpit hair completely, and got rid of about 98% of my leg hair, and about 90% of hair *down there.* And I have ZERO ingrown hair now, and my skin is smooth like silk. Still can't believe it! Nothing has ever worked for me, and I mean NOTHING. I don't even have that much hair in unwanted places on my body, but the hair I do have tends to be very persistent. And, coupled with VERY sensitive skin, any method of hair removal I've ever tried had more negative side effects than positive results, and the positive outcomes never lasted. I waxed for many years. That was the best solution for me because it gave me the smoothest skin on my legs. But it didn't catch everything. And it never reduced my hair growth to such a level as you often see in ads: a few days later, I had to wax again. I even went to the salon to wax my armpits and *down there* but that hurt like hell, and the results never lasted more than a few days. However, waxing was my preferred method for years because it at least gave me a few days of peace and smooth skin. Kind of. With ingrown hairs here and there. I used wax strips for that. I tried waxing beads that you're supposed to melt. That was a total waste of money. Regular shaving would normally give me the smoothest skin for a few hours. By the end of the day, it would be a little prickly. And I would get ingrowns no matter how much I exfoliated. I've even tried actual LASER, in a salon. Wasted all of that money. It hurt, it cost a fortune, and my hair growth got temporarily reduced, but then it came back after what was supposed to be my last treatment. They told me at the salon that some people have a reverse reaction from laser, and the only solution is to get more treatments. But I didn't have the budget for that. I ended up buying a different IPL machine before I got Braun. It was cheaper. One of those viral ones. Total crap. Don't waste your money. It's too weak to do anything. Took me a full year of trying to recognize that it would never ever work on me. But then I got this magical tool from Braun. Well, first things first: it will hurt. It is an actual IPL, not just some flashlight pretending to be an IPL from a cheap knock-off brand. It WILL do its job, and you might have to do the lowest setting at the beginning because it will hurt. But you will practically feel the roots of your follicles getting destroyed. My ingrown hairs disappeared after the very first treatment. My hair began growing slower after the second treatment. About two weeks into it, my hair growth almost completely stopped. Six months into it, I occasionally need to do a minor touch-up here and there, I think mainly because the remaining hairs are so thin and light that the IPL just doesn't "see" them, so they reappear once in a while. But when they do, it's nearly impossible to see. It's like fuzz, not even hair. The worst area of my body that I previously could never look smooth were my armpits. Even when freshly shaven, they'd look a bit dark. My skin is thin and sensitive there, and so I could never make it look nice and smooth. Waxing wouldn't get rid of the hair for more than a few days. It was hell. But this IPL machine worked!! I have ZERO hair in my armpits, and the skin finally had a chance to heal, so my pits look smooth, light, and clean. The hardest area to IPL is *down there.* Even with a special precision attachment, it's kind of difficult to reach, because frankly the only downside of this IPL is its design. You have to constantly press the button, or hold it down, and it's situated in such a way that makes it uncomfortable to hold when you're trying to do your south region. But it's doable if you're squatting or sitting at the edge of a chair or couch. I find that even after six months, I can't seem to get rid of ALL the hair down there--probably because the follicles tend to be rooted a lot deeper in that region, so the roots of the hairs are harder to reach with IPL. However, I've done a full Brazilian with this tool, and my bikini area is completely hair-free--I mean ZERO hair in the bikini area. Only a little bit of remaining hair way down below. But it is a lot thinner and lighter, and grows a lot slower. TLDR: This is a fantastic machine that works, and it has worked for me even though another (cheaper) IPL never did, and even professional laser treatments didn't work for me. But this thing worked.
