I want you briefly tell (as a man) times from my experiences.
I've tried the device only at the armpits and it works really well.
Notwithstanding the manufacturer's recommendation to use it only every two weeks, I've used it directly every week,
to just as quickly as possible to achieve a result, and to be really sure that I do not even miss a spot, and if that is then compensated by the weekly rhythm.
From the first 3-4 treatments can not promise too much you look. You can tell from just about the dirten treatment that goes the growth rate back. I then had been only shave every 5 days. Otherwise daily.
After about the 10th treatment I had only to grow (no joke) per underarm 3-5 hairs that just do not want to stop. It has always taken a long time until it could be seen again (about 7 days), but they were there.
After many treatments now (I guess since about the 15th or 20th treatment) is really all absolutely hairless.
I am therefore very satisfied with the device.
To Behandung itself:
The shoulders are naturally done very quickly. Maximum 3 minutes per side. I'm always the first half, then overlapping right and left of it.
Pain there is really only when I catch a very gebäunte place at level 5 (maximum). The "pain" but are in no way bad or compare epilation and absolutely harmless.
Extra tips: ----------------------------------
1. After some time I came up with the idea to cool the skin before the flash with a cold compress.
This works extremely well. In this way you can burn the skin to work at level 5 without
and thus naturally absolutely painless. An influence on the result, I could not tell should make no difference.
2. The manufacturer recommends not to epilate the hair before applying. I've got to make other experiences.
Treatment in the armpit I started then after a brutal Epilierversuch. Since I do not want to wait until the hair grown back, I would just start already one week after the epilation and was able to observe results by flashing very fast.
Private parts flashing had not brought much. That's why I there simply times depilated and the same time launched the flash treatment. That led to take place first.
I would explain it to me so that you weaken the hair follicle by the epilation and the IPL treatment therefore stronger or faster strikes.
To me:
I have naturally lighter skin (about skin type 2) and occasionally go to the tanning bed.
My hair is dark brown. The hair on the armpits, etc. are also dark brown to pale black.

Update June 2015:
I use the device become quite long and have also begun to treat other parts of the body (groin area).
What seemed until quite unsuccessful then it led eventually to success. You really have to just stay tuned and not
give up. The treatment in the genital area has been running for about 3 months and up to about 10-15 hair's all gone.
His shoulders I am still very happy because not a hair more is growing.
