Review on πŸ’ Gillette Venus Silk-expert 3 BD3001: Effective Permanent Hair Reduction IPL with Venus Razor - White/Purple by Meghan Brown

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It really works! suitable for laser, light and electrolysis

I am writing a review about IPL ("laser" as some people call it). I've never used it before so I don't have a comparison but this is my fourth week of using IPL and so far it's working. I mainly focused on my armpits and used it once a week as directed. There is some hair growth at this stage, but the directions say it may take 6 to 8 treatments to really see the reduction. However, I have noticed a marked reduction in regrowth over the last few weeks and what is growing back is thinner and thinner heterogeneous. . I'll try to post an update in a few months, but if the trend continues I won't have any regrowth by then, or at least very little. The IPL is very easy to use: plug it in and select your area, press the button and off you go. I have found that rotating the head 90 degrees helps to reach odd shaped or hard to reach areas. It takes a few minutes for each armpit, but that's not a ridiculously long time. You definitely want to look away before you hit the button (it's light even when pressed hard against the skin). When the lights come on it feels warm, but it's not terrible, and it's all over before you really realize it's there. Move slowly to make sure you don't miss a spot. Overall, this product seems to work as previously advertised. Again, I'll try to post an update in a few months, but I'm very optimistic. UPDATE: I LOVE this car! I've been using it for almost 6 weeks now and have almost NO armpit hair growth! There is almost no hair left, I am very satisfied! (And I've also noticed that my armpits are almost odorless too. Weird but pleasant side effect? I think it's because odor-causing bacteria have nothing left to live on once the hair follicles are dead/damaged?) When you're ready Take the risk, this IPL is worth the risk! I was skeptical at first, but now I'm convinced it really works!
