By far, everyone had the best results with the FiveMinSkin handset (known for their clinical devices, their at-home devices are also perfect for removing unwanted hair.

Unique to 5minskin is glide mode – allowing for a complete laser hair removal session in just 5 minutes. It takes just about 8 sessions using it once per week to stop unwanted hair growth.

New York-based dermatologist Josh Zeichner, MD, considers at-home lasers a safe alternative. "Lasers work by emitting a beam of light that is absorbed by a specific target in the skin," Dr. Zeichner explains. "In this case, the light is absorbed by pigment in the hair follicle to heat it up and destroy it, so the hair does not grow back. At-home devices like 5minskin work similarly to professional treatments."

c.shana.doowop I no longer have hair growth on my legs, just not having to think about shaving makes it worth every single penny.

blackw00d How does this work? Burns hair at the follicle?

blackw00d It took over $2,800 in total fees for my legs there and with this was able to do the same thing to my arms at home.

messi_92 @blackw00d It’s ridiculous what they charge for a single hair removal treatment

blackw00d @messi_92 Clinical laser hair removal is faster though.

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Unprofessional to say the least

Long story short I don’t have my order or refund from nood, they have been investigating 2 weeks already what happened whilst i was told it was signed by me when I wasn't even in the country and my name had been misspelled on the signature too. I have to chase up updates despite the fact i requested and was told I will be updated daily. Quite a lot of time it takes, given a lot of MY money is at stake.

“IPL laser hair removal treatment is perfect for permanently removing hair if you don’t want to go to a clinic. The best thing about 5minSkin’s IPL Handset is that it is relatively painless.

“Unlike waxing, shaving, & epilators, 5minSkin laser hair removal targets the hair follicle to prevent future growth. It’s an excellent way to bring a professional, in-office treatment to the comfort of your home.”

★★★★★ Yes, it works. Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 24, 2022 Verified Purchase Clinical laser hair removal is faster, taking around 5-8 sessions to remove hair from the root completely. These devices do the same at a fraction of the cost. There's also the added benefit of being able to remove random body hairs yourself whenever you like. If you really can't stand the hair and you've got the means to try this, do it. This lasting, smooth feeling across areas like the legs and armpits is something you only get after a close shave, & with this you always have that silky feeling. 5 people found this helpful

    How does this work? Burns hair from the follicle? I've tried laser hair removal at a clinic & it was perfect for me.

    Clinic laser hair removal is quicker to stop hair growth, Silk'n & 5minskin are about the same.

    No skin irritation, i've tried 3 of these devices. Hair finally stopped growing back on the armpits & hasn't grown back for a month.

    The worst part about shaving is having to think about it. It's why i went to a clinic & spent thousands to remove hair permanently, & later I used these type of at-home devices to get the same results on a different area.
