Device failed to operate within 2 months
This device failed within 2 months. Red indicator lights now come on after 1 to 4 flashes. Braun wants me to send it in for service.

Not worth it, doesnt work as professional ones.
As someone who has gotten laser hair removal on my lip and chin. Don’t buy this! It doesn’t work. I was trying to be cheap and do it at home but it’s pointless. Who wants to wait 4 weeks to maybe see if it works?? Go get it done from somewhere. It’s instant and you can even hear as the hair follicles burst and burn. Don’t buy this crap. Spend the money and get it done right! I’m disappointed. But I’m glad I finally tried it to see it’s pointless. * Also I have thick hairs and professionally it disappeared for 2 year until I gained weight and some showed again.

Burned and Inconsistent
I am black, but within the complexion threshold for the product to "work"... It only consistently worked on my legs; I was zapped several times on the hip/bikini area with two burn marks. The product was painful and did not work consistently...

Not too painful
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To be honest, I was a bit terrified to use this product as I thought it would hurt. It really doesn’t hurt too bad though and keeps your skin hairless much longer than shaving. Have only used twice so far but hoping the more uses the less hair grows.

Nice
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very slick design and packaging! I’ve only used it a couple times and I like it so far. It’s a lot of maintenance to keep up on for long term results.

AMAZING
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW 😍 I’ve never tried laser hair removal, and this product is a game changer. It’s user friendly and easy to use, painless, and so quick! I love that you only have to use it once a week and you can tell your hair growth is slower so quickly. I’m impressed!

Easy hair removal treatment at the comfort of your
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hair removal system is easy to use and pain free. When doing treatment you’ll feel a very slightly shock when it in high power setting but is very mild and in the low power setting you not fell much at all. I do recommend to look away when doing treatment because the light is supper bright although manual states there’s no safety risk. It’s also no recommend to use during pregnancy.

Easy and quick!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall I thought this was easy to use, and I personally didn’t feel any pain when using the smaller attachment on my armpits. This is a handheld, well built and easy to use infrared light. I noticed my hair taking longer to grow in the first two weeks of using it. However results will vary based on skin tone and hair type. It does what is promised, just takes commitment to actually incorporating it into your routine.

Easy to use for beginners
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think laser treatment is the new technology for hair removal. I shaved my chin as directed and used the smaller head (it comes with a bigger one for bigger areas as well, like for legs). Then I would use the laser treatment 24 hours later. Each week I could definitely see that my hair Folecules were getting weaker in growing. But within the 4 weeks, they never stopped growing. So I think I just may have to do maintenance keep up. You plug the device in, hold it to your skin and a light will activate if the hair color is correct and you have it placed correctly. Then you press the button and it's just a little shock with a red light. I do it in the mirror to make sure I'm getting the whole area. I was pleased with the product, Id just like to try my legs or a larger area. Id recommend for people who are tired of shaving all the time or their hair grows quickly.

A home treatment lifesaver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so grateful I was given the opportunity to review the Braun Silk Expert Pro 3 IPL. I’ve owned other hair removers years ago, but the function and design of my previous IPL is evident in its ease of use, power, and effectiveness. This is such a great product for home use, and the safety features allow you to use it without fear. The power is far superior to others I’ve owned, and I like that it’s plugged in instead of battery powered. I don’t have to worry about charging when I get time to use it. I also enjoyed the two different sized heads that allowed me to navigate with ease. It’s solid, and works well and I would recommend it to anyone…especially those of us dealing with perimenopause! I used it for over a month, weekly, to ensure the product worked well, and can attest—it sure does!

So far no real results
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this once a week as instructed for a month. Unfortunately I can’t say that I’ve seen a reduction is hair growth. It might just take more time. A month is pretty short. It is quick and easy to use and painless. The machine gets quite hot but doesn’t burn you. I’m looking forward to continue using it and hopefully get less hairy.

Johanna, thank you for sharing your experience with the Braun Silk-épil PL3120 IPL! We understand that seeing results can take time, and it’s great to hear that you’re committed to using the device regularly. You’re right; the typical hair growth cycle can vary significantly from person to person, and it might take up to 18-24 months for optimal results, especially in areas like underarms, lower legs, and the bikini area. Since the treatment works best on hairs in their active growth phase, continuing your sessions is key to achieving the smooth skin you desire. We recommend sticking with the device for the full start-up phase of 12 weeks, using it once a week, to maximize your results. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at (800) 272-8611. We're here to support you on your journey to smoother skin!

Say goodbye to shaving!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am amazed with my at home laser treatments with Braun’s Pro 3 IPL hair removal as I have only used this product for one month and have already seen a difference. While this device doesn’t have a laser, it has a special light based hair removal technology which gently removes your hair and breaks the hair growth cycle. while I did kindly receive this product for free in exchange for my honest opinion, the drastic results over the little time period speaks for itself. With only four sessions, my hair is already growing back in patches. How it works is over time, the hairs will fall out naturally and regrowth is delayed and then you will only have to touch up once every couple of months. What’s special about this version is it will adapt to your skin tone, making it more gentle and safe as usually those with more pigmented skin may be more inclined with burns. Which was my concern as i’ve never tried any laser treatment as I have extremely sensitive skin and I have very tan skin, yet I have had no issues at all. I have used it on my legs, arm pits, bikini line, and face with no issues at all, with no burns, no irritation and no problems. I also love its gentle setting when you’re first starting out to get used to the product and to make sure there’s no issues. Definitely give this at home IPL treatment a try if you’re tired of shaving and having ingrown hairs like me. I can’t wait to share this product with my sisters so we barely have to shave again. You can’t go wrong, as it’s a high quality product with great results.

Long Term Laser Alternative
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works! I expected this to be really painful like my previous laser treatments that I never finished. Instructions are easy once you read them. I didn’t notice a HUGE change immediately like I did with typical laser, but it’s a great long term option. Especially with it being portable and not having to go somewhere to get it done (also much less expensive).

Shave less. Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying this out for a month, shaving my armpits has become less on my daily routine. It works well on sensitive skin and doesn't leave any marks. The packaging is well secured. I'm impressed with how my legs are, soft and I shave less now. I don't have to charge it much because I don't use it a lot. Which is good battery life.

Loving
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m on my 3rd week of this and honestly am noticing a difference in my hair growth and not having to shave as frequently as before. There’s very minimal pain and the process is pretty quick once you get the hang of it. I’m glad it has the gliding feature. The instructions that came with were very clear and easy to understand. I’m also so glad it comes with a case, it makes storing the device so much easier.

Reduces hair growth, easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this device and have been using it for about a month. I have noticed some hair reduction, although it says it takes about 12 weeks to achieve full results. It is very easy to use and has an auto feature - you simply hold the button down and as you move it along your skin it will flash automatically. It does burn slightly during treatment but is not really painful. It plugs in so you don’t have to worry about charging it. I’m hoping to keep seeing more hair reduction over the next 8 weeks.
