9. Braun Silk-expert Pro Silk-expert Mini Intense
IPL device. Permanent visible reduction of hair growth after 3 months. Body area: all body areas. Number of light pulses: 300,000. Clinically tested: The skin tone sensor adjusts the energy intensity to the skin tone. Includes travel pouch. Not suitable for treating light blonde, red, gray, or white hair. Fast, easy, and gentle IPL hair removal: Enjoy up to 3 months of silky smooth skin at home. Painless hair removal using light pulses. The IPL hair remover allows you to thoroughly and painlessly remove body hair with light pulses. Another advantage of the device is that during treatment, hair follicles are directly destroyed at the hair roots, resulting in reduced hair growth after a few treatments (please refer to the application instructions in the user manual). However, it is important for this type of hair removal that you shave the areas to be treated before using the IPL device, as otherwise, the hair may char due to the light pulses. Light pulse hair removal is suitable for almost all hair and skin types, but not for very dark skin or very light hair, as well as gray and red hair. Never use the device on the following areas: around the eyes or eyebrows, as well as on the scalp. On the lips, nipples, areolas, inner labia, vagina, anus, and in the nose and ears. On areas where you use a long-lasting deodorant (this can cause skin irritation). On tattoos or permanent makeup. Over or near artificial materials such as silicone implants, subcutaneous injection ports, or piercings. On brown or black spots such as freckles, moles, liver spots, or warts. Men should also not use the device on the face, neck (including all beard areas), or in the genital area.
10. Beautifly IPL B-Shine PRO Laser Epilator
Are you tired of constantly growing hair and your skin not feeling pleasantly smooth? We have a solution for you: B-Shine PRO is an IPL laser that effectively removes unwanted hair. There are two lamps available, one for basic hair removal and a smaller window for detailed hair removal. With 500,000 automatic pulses, it allows for quick and long-lasting hair removal. The IPL laser hair removal technology sends a light beam into the hair follicle. After multiple exposures to the light, the hair roots are gradually weakened and destroyed. This prevents hair regrowth and removes them permanently. Experience up to 93% less hair after 4 treatments and 98% after 12 weeks. The B-Shine PRO laser therapy destroys the proliferation of anaerobic bacteria responsible for the formation of acne lesions. These bacteria are particularly sensitive to IPL light.
