1. The technology has some pitfalls:

The treatment may only be carried out when the skin is not tanned.
For women like me, the lot of running around with bare legs and quickly brown, it means that from March / April deadline is the latest flash with. But since you have to wait until one is bleached again after the summer, you can usually start in December with the flash (actually I was even there not 100% bleached again, but whatever). But this time is just enough for 10 treatments so if March is not already sunny and warm and you do not want to walk around in long pants .. With conservation flashes every two months during the summer is nothing, since you may not flash on tanned skin. So you have a choice: Hairless pale legs that nobody sees or brown hairy legs, you can show this.

In the treatment period should not be depilated. This means convinced Epilliererinnen that they pre-treatment must switch to shave before 2-3 weeks and need during treatment live with stubble, that's a pretty high price.

2. Deteriorating safety instructions:

The safety came at the instructions a little short. I have previously asked me for my beautician. She said that the gel has previously in the refrigerator because it serves to protect the skin, and it should be applied 1-2 mm thick. Birthmarks and liver spots should be covered with a white eyeliner. These notes are nowhere in the instructions for use, as well as safety goggles. The flashes are very intense and you see yourself with your eyes closed and when one looks away. I recommend safety goggles to purchase, because if you look but accidentally times towards flash, it takes a long time until you see no more asterisks.

3. Painful or not?
Jain. On the shins, I do not feel anything, but the more I come toward the knee, the more unpleasant to downright painful it is. To treat the underarms or bikini line you have to be a real tough guy.

4. Does it work?
Yes, amazingly. I am suppose to those for whom this device was made. Very strong and fast-growing (2 cm per month), thick, dark brown hair, with through 20 years of epillieren weakened roots. Legs Skin type 3, armpits skin type. 1

0. treatment (06:12:12)
A small strip of the tibia of the right leg (10 cm long) is flashed to see if I can take it at all, mainly because I am not yet completely faded again after the summer (is in the guidance suggested). There seems to be a slight effect, I would swear to it but not zuminder I seem to tolerate it well, what I hoped not to risk according to some reports here.

1. Treatment (20:12:12)
Legs, not really visible effect, but there seems to be little bald spots.

2. Treatment (03:01:13)
Legs: approximately 50% of the hair no longer grow. I am extremely surprised by the reviews that I read here that I did not expect.
After the flashes can go bathing or showering because the gel has indeed back down, and you have it all because you have on your fingers and then wiping the thigh or arm, or because one of the flashes with the arm to the gel the legs comes and then the forearms are full of it.

3. Treatment (17:01:13)
Legs: 3/4 of the hair is gone, either completely or they are so thin and weak that it hardly counts.
Shoulders: I have now begun to hehandeln the hair under the armpits. It twinge, but is bearable. After a treatment some bald spots can be seen, some hair grow definitely slower 3/4 show no change.

4. Treatment (31/01/13)
Legs: effects of treatment do usually about 1 week after actually noticeable. After 4 treatment only grow about 10% of hair scattered and significantly weaker. Other places are easily stubbly, one sees the hair but not really. Many places, I would say almost half of the leg surface is completely smooth. Meanwhile, I have also get the hang of how I all points actually flashes. I'm quite generous with the gel around (I'm hard-in 1.5 cm distance along the leg and then smear wagrecht), the head leaves footprints in the gel, so you can not see where you have flashed, and where. On the calves, I must have forgotten in the first few laps areas because mun I need two hours instead of 1.5 hours for both legs.
Armpits: After the second treatment of the armpits larger bald, slow-growing and uninfluenced segregated from each other areas can be observed. Neighboring hair appear to be synchronized, possibly, wei they originated in embryonic development from the same progenitor cell? Similar effects I have observed on the legs. There are areas where keeping the hair stubbornly next to completely hairless areas and which, where the hairs grow weaker (see customer photo). As the spots in a cow or the color pattern in the fur of a cat.
The first tube of gel is now all she has served for a leg for the second I needed already a new tube.

5. Treatment (14:02:13)
Legs: 98% hairless. While there are still some, a few hairs, otherwise one feels only in places a little fine stubble; the rest is smooth. From this treatment I am skin type II, I really should not still noisy manual flash, because I'm still browned. For skin type II there is a change for me. Before that, I really can do without covering the birthmarks that intensity was probably significantly lower, this time two birthmarks were scabbed. In case of skin types I and II so you have to cover birthmarks with white kohl, with skin type III, the intensity was regulated so that it actually went without covering, because the difference skin birthmark was significantly lower. I would prefer to continue to use the intensity of skin type III, but unfortunately it is impossible to manual control.
Armpits: 1/4 of the hair grows gecluster blithely, 1/4 significantly weaker, half is gone and hardly shows any signs of life until more.

6. treatment (28/02/13)
Legs: Hairless. Only if I get goosebumps I feel stubble.
Armpits: each side two stubborn hair nests very slowly and clearly thinner still growing. But I get away yet :-)

7. Treatment (14:03:13)
Legs: During the last two weeks nothing has grown, only thin stubble felt when I get goose bumps. Now I'm actually completely bleached and mostly skin type I. According to the manual I should have only now starting treatment. Since it is actually still snowing on March 14, it looks good, that this year I actually every 10 treatments can run through before I'm brown again. The third tube is almost empty.
Armpits: Last fine hairs and two hair nests clinging to life.

8. Treatment (28.03.13)
Legs: The third tube is now empty. There grow just fine, thin hair that can not be seen, only slightly feels. When the eppiliert in summer now and then, it might be even finally the spoon. Because no changes are observed, the motivation is to continue to apply heavier until the 10th treatment. After all this winter is so long that I still had no way to Sonennbad how else back in March. Strictly speaking, I'm still not quite faded and still skin tone II, although I would of Natura skin type I and probably still does not flash according to the description. Is strange that skin type I and II again I am two weeks ago. Maybe I'm just on the border between two skin tones and depending on the point at which I measure, it is just type I or II.
Armpits: Still a few fine hairs and two hair nests clinging to life.

9. Treatment (11:04:13): Tube 4 is empty. Ultimately, no change to the last treatment. Still 5% small, thin hairs that cling to the legs and under the armpits to life.

10. Treatment (25.04.13): Not applicable, since the early summer has returned to South Baden. 25 ° C, sun, garden, because I will certainly not attract long terms to 14 days in flash again allowed. It has occurred as feared, the possible treatment period is too short.

Conclusion: It is difficult to go through with the complete cycle in the time available to me. This year the winter was long, so I was able to meet 10 Lightning appointments 9, would not even have been possible in "normal" years, there would have been final in March. 95% of the hairs are gone, the rest is growing only very slowly and very thin after that is a significant reduction and a significant improvement to 2x wöchendlich Epillieren. Conservation flashes is not possible, because I'm going to brown too quickly. Let's see how long the effect will last so, or if the immediate Epillieren of renewable and significantly weakened hair you might completely gives the rest.

Edit: What can happen when you flash, although one is brown (yet)?
That was at the very beginning of the case slightly and I forgot to mention it. The (remaining) tan can be stained and look odd. The effect is harmless and will disappear after a few days, in the summer I would definitely not try, just looks modest, to put it mildly.

8/11/2013: A few months have passed since the last lightning. The hair that had caught up still after only very slowly or not, thin and somehow brighter, thus disturbing hardly. Epillieren I have only every 2 weeks that I got already not small with flashing. Even among the poor grow all the hair still significantly slower, even if all are back. But epillieren once a week to every 2 days is still a significant advance. I think I'll freshen up again in December, for next summer.
