Additional Silk'n Information

Silk'n SensEpil

Every woman wants hair-free, silky-smooth skin. Unfortunately, getting it is more complicated than we’d like. For one, shaving doesn’t last long, results in stubbly re-growth and can cause cuts or rashes. Waxing can be extremely painful, and requires you to grow back fairly long hair between sessions.

As a result, many women turn to laser hair removal. How does it work? Light energy from the laser device is converted into heat. This heat then affects hair follicles, slowing or even stopping hair growth. The downside? Multiple sessions are required to achieve the best results. That’s because hair grows at different rates and goes through phases of growing, resting and falling out. Professional laser hair removal is also pricey, ranging from approximately $200 to $500 per session.

Fortunately, you can enjoy the benefits of laser hair removal in the comfort and privacy of your own home! FDA-approved for at-home use, the Silk’n SensEpil delivers similar results to professional hair removal. One study found that after six months’ use, hair was reduced between 41 and 54 percent, depending on the area (i.e., arms, underarms, bikini area and legs). The device is simple to use, and will save you hundreds of dollars over professional treatments.

Silk'n SensEpil also comes with a special skin tone safety sensor: It won’t emit the laser light if your skin is too dark. The device is not recommended for dark-skinned women due to the risk of adverse effects like blisters and pigmentation changes. Silk'n SensEpil works best for individuals with lighter skin tones and dark hair, because the laser seeks out dark pigment. This new Silk'n SensEpil model is ergonomically-designed, so it’s easier to use and store than earlier models. Refill cartridges are sold separately.
