   Great Product but…
   If you look at my other reviews, I don’t write lengthy ones but this product merits it. First of all, even though I rated it 5 stars doesn’t mean is perfect, it has it’s quirkiness. However, as someone that has gone to a laser hair removal “spa” and spent thousands of dollars I can tell you that this product has given me better results than the “spa”.I’m not the typical Hispanic with dark skin, but not light either. I have been shaving my whole body for the last 25+ years because I’m very hairy. When I tried the “spa” for (8) sessions for my back, I went from shaving my back twice a week to twice a month. Was it better? Yes. Was it worth the stupid amount of money? No.Back to the Braun:The good:It works. I bought it almost 2 months ago now and have been using it every week. I’ve used it on my legs, back, and arms. It took 3 sessions to start seeing a big reduction in hair growth. I just finished my 6th session and the results have been better than when I went to the spa. This last time I went 2 weeks without shaving and had less hair than when I was shaving twice a week. I’m going to go 3 weeks until the next one and see, but I’m confident that is just a matter of time before it’ll be every other month or so. (I’ll update later)The price for this Braun is peanuts compared to what you’d spend on a “spa”, and they tell you that they do NOT guarantee results and that you might need additional treatments besides your 6 months “maintenance”. I wish more people knew about this product, it’ll put the “spas” out of business.Full disclosure, I do not use the app at all. I set it at the highest setting possible and go (more on that later)The bad:This one is hard for me because I don’t necessarily view these as “bad” but I know it will bother some users as I’ve read other reviews. In the highest setting, it could get uncomfortable in some of the more delicate areas. It gets really hot and stings a little. Everybody’s pain threshold is different but I would rate it a 3 out of 10. Again, not all the time but in some areas. You can always reduce the intensity, I choose not to.As some of the other reviews I’ve read, the machine starts off “zapping” rapidly and after the first or second use the zapping rate slows down quite a bit. I’ve notice that it zaps faster with the larger attachments as well. Having said that, it works just as well and it takes me another 1-2 minutes longer than when I first used it. So for me, it’s not a big deal.Conclusion:Sorry for the long winded review but I really like this laser hair removal from Braun and I think it’s worth every penny. I suggest you follow the instructions, shave the area before using it as you’ll get better results (even spas tell you to do that), and use it weekly. I’ll try to post an update in a couple of months.

   Time saver
   This has bought me time back! I used to shave my legs several times per week and after 2 months of using this weekly, I do touch ups/ quick shave once per week if that and only in denser areas. There are a ton of flashes on this product so I think it’s well worth the money. User friendly but sometimes the app can get annoying if you want to use it more often than recommended.

   Must have for silky skin
   Solid build quality product. Works fine with a dedicated app that manages your sessions.The results can be seen after few sessions.

   Didn’t work for me
   So I am 12 ish weeks out from using this laser device with little results. I used it as directed weekly. I have had professional treatments so I knew what I was doing. I am disappointed as many reviews reported great success. I should have also had great success as I am Caucasian and have dark course hair on my legs which is stillGrowing and not much finer . I called Braun today and they walked me though a 100 day money back guarantee form To fill out.

   Hair removal on sensitive skin
   I was skeptical, but this absolutely does work. I have very sensitive skin and I’ve been using level two setting for about three weeks now and I have noticed some permanent hair removal. I’ll be at in patches but I also haven’t been that consistent with the application itself …so the fact that I’m seeing any hair removal to me is awesome. Only downside this is not a comment on this specific laser. It’s just a comment about these lasers in general when I did use it on my upper lip. I experienced a little bit of a cold sore outbreak and apparently that’s normal so you have cold so just get some meds for it while you are treating those areas (:

   Product is good. App setup and instructions, not so good
   I got this for myself and for my wife. I figured I could use this on my back and my wife, who recently had a tummy tuck, could use this on unwanted hair. For a tummy tuck, they sort of pull skin up and down and its common to have stray pubic hairs to end up in unwanted places.App:I am not a fan of the app. Once you get it going it seems to work fine enough but initial setup is incredibly annoying. The IPL works well enough on its own, so you could ignore it but the app does assist with which head to use and tracking.Use:Easy to use, basically run it over your skin. The 2 things to keep in mind is the app providing feedback and there is some pain/discomfort involved but thats to be expected. For me I would say on my back it was about a 2-3. My wife says for her, in sensitive areas it was about a 3-4.Does it work?Yes, it does seem to work. I dont get the best view of my back but my wife says there is less hair. My wife has only used this on her post surgery areas. So, sparse hair anyway, but she has seen improvement.Final thoughts:If you can get past the convoluted instructions, find videos online maybe, this does the trick. If you’re looking for something to remove unwanted hair and time is an asset and money isnt, then this could be your solution. Way less expensive than going to a salon and we saw results.
