    I only used it once. I couldn't find time to prep skin (exfoliate, shave, moisturize) and do treatments twice a week. It wasn't painful, just uncomfortable.

    Would not work. Turned on ok, but could not adjust anything. Luckily it was within the time frame to return, so that's what I did. Unable to get a replacement because they are sold out.

    Disappointing. I used this in 5 different areas, several times a week, over 8 weeks, and it did not seem to have any affect on eliminating hair growth. I have medium dark hair (both thick and thin) and medium light skin. Directions were followed closely. By other reviews however, seems to work for some people?

    Don't waste your time or money on this product. I have been using the product for 3 months thought it was working great and now it is suddenly stopped working. The device will not power on will not do anything so save your money and buy a more reliable product.

    They promised so much and provide so little. I have returned this item because I have not seen any results after 2 weeks off continuous use. Very disappointed. There is better options out there for the same price range.

    The device is not safe for the household. If laser gets into your eye or your child eye you will be blinded. I wouod recommend it for locensed professionals in the salon.
