Silk'n Review: At Home Laser Hair Removal

The Silk'n laser hair removal product is a light based device that has been approved by the FDA for at home laser hair removal. It can be used anywhere below the neck and require multiple treatments over the course of months to achieve the best results.

The device works by applying a pulsed light to disable the hair from growing. The hair absorbs the light and transforms the energy to heat, which in effect zaps the hair away! It should be used only on light to medium skin. As with most at home permanent hair removal products, the product targets the dark so if you have dark skin and light hair, Silk'n won't know what is the hair and can cause burns. Also, the darker your hair, the less treatments you'll need for the permanent hair removal you're looking for.

I've been using it for a month now and it doesn't hurt me, but everyone has their own tolerance for pain. It feels like a warm slapping sensation and hurts less and less everytime you use this at home laser hair removal product. There are different settings, so if it hurts too much you can use it on the most mild setting, but then it will take longer for the permanent hair removal.

I have been using it once every two weeks and will continue to do so until the hair is gone. So far I have used the Silk'n for two treatments and am quite pleased with the results. I've seen considerably less hair where I've used it, and the hair that is growing back is thinner and softer!

The Silk'n can be found all over the internet, and right now it is being sold for a low price of $499 at Sephora. This is the new model, the Silk'n SensEpil and you can buy replacement cartridges for $49, though one cartridge should last for your entire body.

The Silk'n SensEpil comes with a DVD so you can learn how to use it properly to achieve maximum permanent hair removal potential. I like this product a lot and have had amazing results that have exceeded my expectations. I'm a skeptic when it comes to permanent hair removal, but with the Silk'n it seems like a reality. The one downside I can see is that I'll have to keep up with treatments every month or so for a year or two, but I'm willing to do that for permanent hair removal. My sister has been using the Tria for the same time I've been using the Silk'n and my hair is less noticeable and finer than hers, though she has also seen great results.

Permanent hair removal is no longer a myth, it's becoming a reality for women all over the world. I couldn't be happier when I wake up in the morning and have no shadow on my underarms, or when I got three weeks withough shaving my legs and don't have to feel self conscious.

Come back soon, I'll be reviewing the No!No! hair removal sysytem which is also available as Sephora. Good luck and try out the Silk'n permanent hair removal! You won't be sorry.

Permanent Hair Removal - Is it Possible?

When we hear the words "permanent hair removal" we shudder with excitement. How fantastic would it be to rid yourself of unwanted body hair for all of eternity?! Pretty fantastic. But can this be a reality? I'm not convinced.

The fact of the matter is that permanent hair removal is somewhat of a myth. It's only really been in the past decade that people have been getting these kinds of treatments. Most people don't even see complete and permanent hair removal, and the ones who do have no way of knowing if the hair will grow back in twenty years from now.

What does exist, however, is permanent hair reduction. This has to do with getting laser treatments to rid yourself of hair. The way it works is the more you go, the less hair you will have. It removes hair for long periods of time, has it grow back slower and thinner. This is a great start for those of us who are holding our breath for the day when a cheap, over the counter product can deliver on the dream of permanent hair removal.

The two major options we have right now are electrolysis and laser. This is a great start. While electrolysis is said to be stronger and work faster than laser, laser is cheaper and is said to reduce hair from between 40% - 80%. This is great news if you fall around the 80%, but a little disappointing if you're around the 40%. The great thing about laser hair removal is definitely that it's becoming available for home use at a fraction of the cost for treatments in the salon. While this won't help you achieve permanent hair removal, it will stay by your side as long as you need it and overtime you will be able to achieve great results!

In my next article I'll be reviewing at home permanent hair removal products. There are three, specifically, that I will be talking about including the No! No!, Tria, and Silk'n. I have two out of these three products that I have tried at home and will give you a thorough review of both, and I have a sister who used the third so I'll be able to review that one honestly, as well. All of these products are afforable when you compare them to what you would be paying over the years for shaving and waxing, and I think they're all better options than non permaent hair removal.

Thanks for reading and come back soon for more information and reviews and opinions about permanent hair removal.
