I have been using it for about a month and my leg hairs are literally falling out. I can see the little dead hair follicles and I am very excited about that! It is not completely painless, it kind of feels like a rubber band snapping and you can feel it hit your hairs however it doesn’t hurt near as bad as anything else I have tried! The cooling effect is very nice! Couple drawbacks tho.. it gets very hot so I usually have to turn it off for a while to cool off, the ads say it takes like 5 mins to do your entire body but it literally takes me a half hour just to do my thighs and I am a pretty small person (5’1, 110lbs) so if you are bigger and are wanting to do a whole body treatment make sure you have time to do so! And lastly it doesn’t seem to be working well on coarser areas like my bikini line and armpits but I am sure it just takes a little longer! I would for sure say that this product is definitely worth it!

I can't believe an IPL that actually works. First use on legs I did the level 3 which you're not suppose to per instructions to use level 2 on legs. I did develop a burn rash of red bumps all over my legs; it was bad because I had to cancel a Gyno appt because I didn't want to explain what happened to my legs. I bought Tend Skin on Amazon which is for razor burn and it took all the red bumps away after a week to week an half (smells like rubbing alcohol, didn't burn, and it worked). I used it two to three times a day. Though I had to deal with that nonsense I barely have much hair growth on both legs after one use, highest level, and going over areas twice not once. I probably over did it that's why I had an allergic reaction, but with other IPL's that's what I did in order to see small decrease in hair growth. To me that's incredible, a miracle! I've never had such amazing results after one use of an IPL. I've spent over a thousand dollars on other IPLs and the hair always grew back even with repeated use per instructions and over a year of use. I'm usually pretty hairy (Hispanic/White skin), with black thick coarse hair on every inch of my legs thanks to my Dad's hairy side of the family. Still working on bikini area because that's more of a sensitive area and I only do level 2 instead of 3; level 3 stings a bit. My armpits are looking better after three weeks of use, I still have hair there but my armpit hair is pretty coarse/thick and worse than my leg hair but the hair is starting to decrease in some areas. I'm so happy I saw this reviewed on YouTube from a beauty influencer that's trustworthy and showed her positive results. I love this IPL!

Consistency is key. I always refer people to buy this product because it works. As long as you are consistent and patient, it will work. I only write reviews for products that really deserve it. This is one. Some areas like the armpits and bikini may take a little longer since you will have small sections in those areas that for some reason will have some hair growth.

Summary:
Pros:
The product is absolutely amazing!
* Easy to Use
* Quick and 99% painless (nothing horrible, see details for more info)
* Effective
* Very responsive
* Easy to set up and hold
* Pretty clear instructions and recommendations
* Multiple Settings
* Pretty Color and a nice box
* Great for sensitive skin
* Works in nearly ALL areas
* Effective against somewhat coarse hair (such as leg hair)

Down Sides:
* May be somewhat time-consuming for people who may not have set times for skin care and have a busy life.
* The light is BRIGHT!! You have to use the glasses provided or something darker, also don't have others in the room without eye protection as it can be seen across the room.
* Somewhat noisy but it's not too bad. (A small "quiet" vacuum is about the sound level.)

Detailed Review:
I was on the fence about it, due to several reasons. For one, I have extremely sensitive skin to the point that I have to use specific soaps and products otherwise it breaks out or just tears. My skin is delicate but my hair is somewhat coarse, grows fast, and is stubborn.

It was a pricy investment I wasn't sure would work. That being said, I went ahead and got it and I'm so glad I did. I do have a very hectic life and forget simple things often, so setting a schedule to use it has been my only real issue, which is on me not the product.

Now, I have used it (so far) on my legs/thighs, somewhat bikini line, hands/wrist area, arms, underarms, and face. (Skip down to results if you don't have sensitive skin or concerns about how your skin will react...and feel lucky <3)

~*~ Products I have used Before ~*~
Just to give a thorough review (as I didn't see this in any other reviews)
Previous products I have tried and how my body handled them:
* Nair (regular, extra strength, sensitive skin, creams, foams, pretty much every variation) - Effect: Chemical burns even when using less than the recommended time, skin tearing, hair still very much present though a good bit was removed. Due to the chemical burns, I stopped using any of these.
* Waxing creams, gels, strips - Effect: Skin tearing and extreme irritation. Sometimes hair was pretty much completely removed but at the cost of removing my skin as well.
* Razers and a plethora of shaving creams/gels/ Pinterest and Tiktok recipes (I can't even cover all of them but nearly every Venus line, men's razors, and pretty much anything you can find at Walmart, especially the ones for sensitive skin) - Effects: Skin irritation, some tearing, breakouts, and hair the next day........

~*~ Finally THIS Product Results ~*~
Again, I have a hectic schedule so I have not been able to use it as recommended, however, the little bit I have used has shown promise. My legs, wrist, and hands have spots or strips that don't grow as fast after 2-4 uses over the span of a month (definitely wayyyy less than recommended for results).

I was worried about using it on my face and tried other parts first, so I have only used it on my face twice. This was actually the whole reason I bought it though, as I do not enjoy growing a ton of face hair and being a girl. It's life and natural, but I hate it and it really messes with my self-esteem (which is already pretty low).

When using the product, some sensitive spots or spots may still have hair sometimes have a small pinprick sensation for a few seconds. This isn't even that bad, especially since with razors I have about 2 days of burning. I would recommend a non-scented lotion afterwards as your skin can feel a little off. I haven't done a round without the lotion to see if it would get worse. Again, the slight discomfort or off feeling is nowhere near the pain or irritation caused by other products.

Overall, I love the product and would recommend it for people with sensitive skin, acne-prone skin, and even coarser hair.

Here’s my review after using it for a year—it works so well! If you use it every 2–3 days for the first 3 months, the results will stay stable. After that, using it once a month is enough, and there’s almost no hair left. It’s very effective for arms, legs, and underarms. However, it didn’t work much for the bikini area, so I stopped trying. For thick hair area, it’s better to go to a professional. But for arms and legs, it’s amazing. After a year, you can see my picture, my leg's hair is so fine you can’t see it unless you look very closely. Sometime I forget to using this device for 1-2 months, the results still look good I don’t feel shy wearing shorts. Highly recommend!
