Great for Legs and Underarms
I ordered this for my wife, and she is thrilled to have it so that she can be ready when shorts and swimsuit season arrives. Not having to shave every day will be an absolute blessing for her. This SmoothSkin Pure Fit Intelligent Ultrafast IPL Laser Hair removal device comes with the device itself, a power cord, an optional precision head for use on smaller areas, and a detailed instruction book. Since this device does not work if the skin is too dark or the hair is too light, it is important to check the online skin suitability chart before purchasing to make sure that this device will actually work for the user. My wife's skin and hair color fell within the effective range, so she was good to go when this arrived. Also, since this device can make the skin photosensitive during the course of treatment, winter is the best time to start the initial 12 week course of hair removal. For those who live in a place where there really isn't much of a winter, just be aware that skin needs to be protected from the sun during this treatment period. Since my wife is still in the early phases of this treatment and it's already mid-March, she'll be cutting it kind of close. Worse case scenario, though, she can at least get a month or so of treatments done and then resume and/or start her treatment over again when winter is back. This SmoothSkin device has two modes for treatments, Glide, which is just like it sounds and is a continuous firing as the device glides along the skin in a steady movement, or Stamp, which is a single controlled burst at a time, designed for areas where you want tighter control over when and where the light fires, such as on the upper lip. There are also three treatment intensities, Power, which is the highest setting and good for larger areas, Gentle, for sensitive areas (also recommended when first starting IPL and getting used to how it feels), and Speed, the fastest treatment mode, for quickly covering larger areas and for doing fast touch-ups. This sounds complicated, but after my wife began doing these treatments once a week, she found that it was actually fairly easy to do. Granted, she is just doing legs and underarms for now, which are fairly basic. My wife's initial opinion of this SmoothSkin Pure Fit IPL laser hair removal device is extremely positive. It's easy to learn, easy to do, can be done in the privacy of our own home and at a time that is convenient for her, and is far cheaper than having either IPL or laser hair removal treatments done in a shop. Not only that, but so far it's working.
