If you have patches of coarse hair now that you are older...
My grandmother had issues with patches of dark, coarse hair on her face/chin area as she got older and apparently I have genetically inherited that problem.  Therein lies the problem with using this appliance.  I must shave before using this thing and then I get to be "pinched" over and over on that sensitive skin where I just shaved...I mean, if you find something hurting you, do you go back to it willingly?  No...at least when I let the stubble get long enough and then wax, the pain from yanking that wax off is much faster and less painful that this light-pulsing machine.  So, that said, it's just not the way to get rid of hair for me.  If I had just a few hairs in one spot, maybe, but not the way the hair grows on my face/chin area.
