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.

    • Stunned- its actually great
Color: Gold/White Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I am a fair-skinned person with hair in the mid-brown shades (high contrast). I understand that matters with these kinds of products based on the description, so your mileage may vary. I am also a person with very sensitive skin. Everything gives me hives, everything irritates, I sunburn in minutes. I was very worried this product was going to burn me- but I keep nicking certain spots (moles) with razors so I was looking for something longer-lasting. I did a 48-hour patch test- a couple of zaps, and then waited to see if anything happened. Nothing did, so I went all in. Based on instructions, I shaved first to prevent a burning hair smell and more heat than intended and then went about zapping all over my legs and armpits. By the time I was done, the device was getting warm to the touch but did not hurt. I did at one point accidentally turn the device up to its highest setting, and that was a little noticeable zap, but not exactly painful, more like startling. I repeated this routine about twice a week for less than a month now, and its WORKING. The instructions said use once a week, but I'd seen other folks say their doctor cleared them for a faster pace, so I started doing that too figuring if at any point my skin became irritated, I'd course correct and reduce the frequency. Legs in particular, after 3 days its still smooth- I used to be stubbly in 2 days. My armpits are also slowing in growth speed, just not quite as quickly. Day 2 its still looking pretty good and it used to be more like 24 hours. I'm amazed because I've heard others say they didn't notice a significant reduction until week 6. Perhaps this was due to my accelerated pace of using the device. So now that we've established it works (for high contrast skin/hair), the other things I like about it is the carrying case, and the option of different size heads- although I only use one. I've found I can turn the device a different direction in most case, and successfully use it without bother to swap to the precision head. I'm lazy- what can I say? Minor gripes: 1.Placement of the larger box piece of the cord. For the way the outlet is set up in my bathroom, it hangs at an awkward spot. 2. It can be easy to accidentally bump the button that changes the zap intensity. I like to use on Level 2. I have accidentally used it lower and higher- the higher you'll notice, the lower you won't. 3. The flash is a bright and I wish it was more obscured, rather than having an area seemingly designed to let you see it a little. I recommend dark glasses if you are sensitive to sudden flashes of bright light. Even though you know its coming- sometimes if you lift a little at just the wrong second it'll be even brighter and a little uncomfy on the eyes. To be clear, none of that matters because it works. Just if you want to try a different brand of the same type of device, maybe you can find ones that have slight improvement on those things. ... show more

    • Easy to use, does not cause much discomfort (for me), one+ month update below
Color: Gold/White Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I have read so many reviews and wanted to know a few key things-- so here it is on topics of: pain and can it do Brazilian. (I have only had it a week so cannot comment on efficacy yet, but by reading all the reviews, it seems like it works great for some people fast, great for some people slowly, and others, it just doesn't do great. Some ppl seem to give up if it does not work after 4 weeks, or if it shows reduction but not complete removal--go longer!!) [One month update below] 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!!! ... show more
