A popular IPL hair removal device, the Braun Silk-Expert Pro 5, has been reduced by £290 at Boots, now priced at £369.99 down from £659.99. The device promises one year of hair reduction with visible results in as little as three weeks.
The machine features a skin tone sensor that adapts automatically and flashes up to 125 times per minute to minimise missed spots. It has earned a 4.7 rating from 196 reviews, with 93% of reviewers recommending it.
Satisfied users have reported significant hair reduction. One shopper wrote: 'This is absolutely excellent. I am so delighted with the results - my troublesome, embarrassing, very hairy backs of my legs are now smooth.' Another added: 'The hairs have completely gone from my underarms and bikini area. I hardly ever shave now, it's liberating to just shower and go.'
However, not all feedback was glowing. One customer noted that after completing the 12-week programme, hair growth returned to normal after a couple of weeks without use.
Alternative IPL devices are also available. The Philips Lumea Series 8000 is priced at £329.99 at Argos, with a 4.3 rating from 183 reviews. The Ulike IPL Hair Removal, featuring ice cooling technology, is reduced to £249.99 at Amazon, with a 4.6 rating from 144 reviews.
