If you’re tired of having to regularly shave, wax, or epilate your skin, it may be time to consider a more permanent hair removal method. IPL devices offer similar results to those of professional laser hair removal treatments at a much lower price. 

Which one to choose? The Braun Silk-Expert IPL is a perfect choice for just about anyone! It reads and adapts to skin tone to deliver permanent hair removal. Powered by a lengthy power-cord, you’ll be able to use this device anywhere within your home. Moreover, because of its portable design, you can even take it with you if you often travel to avoid missing a treatment.

Who is This IPL Device For?

Like most IPL devices, the Braun IPL only works on light skin with dark hair. It’s not a suitable choice for everyone. However, this handheld device is versatile and works on different skin tones. It’s effective on light to medium skin colors with hair ranging from a natural blonde to dark brown and black. It’s less effective on hair colors like blonde, red, or white hair because there is less melanin to absorb the light. 

This Braun hair removal machine is designed with a skin tone sensor that continuously updates as it glides over the skin. This prevents skin damage by ensuring that no bright flashes are released unless it suits the skin tone. 

Specifications 

Flash Times: Designed with 300,000 flashes.

Test Results: Users will enjoy permanent hair reduction in only 4 weeks. 

What’s Included: Comes with the Silk Expert IPL device, power cord, SkinSpa exfoliator, and user manual. 

What Makes This IPL Device Special?

The Braun Silk Expert IPL adapts to your skin using its SensoAdapt feature. This is a sensor that measures skin tone to deliver the perfect light intensity. This is very important if you’re going to be using this machine on different parts of your body. After all, skin tone varies throughout everyone’s body. This IPL device can keep up and adjust as necessary! 

Moreover, the light flash impulse will only be released once the skin tone is ideal. This results in an effective and safe at-home treatment. While no goggles are required, make sure you don’t look directly at the bright flash of light as it could cause discomfort. 

Why Should I Buy This IPL Device?

The Silk Expert IPL delivers amazing results. After only a few uses, hair grows back more slowly and becomes lighter and finer in the process. Eventually, after the continual use of this device, hair growth will permanently stop. You have two modes you can use to make each treatment pleasant:

  • Gliding Mode – This mode offers a fast IPL treatment. More flashes will be triggered, and fewer areas will be missed. This mode is excellent for large body parts like legs or arms. 
  • Gentle Mode – You also have a gentle mode option which works the same as the normal mode (in terms of speed and accuracy), expect this mode works on a lower energy level. This offers more comfortable treatments for areas like the armpits or bikini line. 

It’s also important to note that the Braun Silk Expert IPL is clinically tested and safe for at-home use. It includes a body exfoliation brush that will remove dead skin cells. This will make your IPL session more comfortable and effective. Compared to manual treatment, the body exfoliator will cleanse your skin four times better than using your hands alone.
