Silk'n Laser Hair Remover
Are you looking for an efficient way to remove body hair–a method that lasts longer than shaving or waxing? Home Skinovations Ltd. has combined pulsed light technology with an acoustic effect to create the Silk’n™ laser hair remover for home use.

What Are Benefits of Using a Silk’n?

A Silk’n is a lightweight personal appliance that removes hair from any part of your body, other than the face. Men and women use this device for the chest, back, abdomen, arms, underarms, bikini lines, and legs.

Some key benefits of using this device are:

  • Safety–Backed by clinical trials and ongoing use in doctor’s offices, the Silk’n is proven to be very safe.
  • Effectiveness–The Silk’n reduces the amount of hair that grows back by 80 or 90 %, for at least a year and sometimes permanently. Once you have treated an area of skin, you will be free of regular routines such as shaving and waxing.
  • Minimal discomfort–At most, you will feel a warm, tingling sensation; any minor redness or swelling after a session goes away quickly.
  • Affordability–Once you purchase a Silk’n for about $800, you will be able to treat as many parts of your body as you choose, and to do any occasional touchups that might be needed from time to time. This cost is quite reasonable, when you compare it to the thousands of dollars that people pay for laser hair removal services offered by medical doctors.
  • Convenience–Having a device for laser hair removal at home allows you to take care of your skin at any time, in privacy, without having to book appointments.

How Does Silk’n Laser Hair Removal Work?

When you gently press the Silk’n against your skin, pulses of light are absorbed by the pigment in your hair follicles–and when the follicles get hot, changes take place that prevent future hair growth. The Silk’n has five energy settings allowing you to choose the heat level that is comfortable for you.

Repeated sessions are required. The first three to four sessions are every two weeks, and subsequent ones are spaced farther apart. You need multiple sessions because at any point in time, only a fraction of the hair is actually growing and vulnerable to the laser effect.

Is a Silk’n Suitable for Everyone?

Best results are achieved for brown or black hair on light skin. If you have white, grey, or blonde hair, there will be insufficient pigment to absorb the laser beam. Red hair might be removed–but you will need more than the average number of sessions.

People with dark or black skin cannot take advantage of home laser hair removal–in fact, even in professional clinics results can be limited. The difficulty is that dark skin can be scarred or burned–as the pigment in the skin, as well as the targeted hairs, absorbs the light.

Where Do You Find Silk’n Laser Hair Removers?

If you go to your local pharmacy, you won’t be able to find these products. You need to find an aesthetic physician who sells them. Silk’n laser hair removal is well-respected in the medical community and often used for professional treatments.
