Hi All,

I found this machine on the internet, when I googled on "laser home hair removal", actually saw it on Ebay for $169. Wonder if anyone here tried it ?? It will be a dream come true if I don't have to keep paying for the spa to TREAT me with their LOWEST setting possible, they claim to be on the safe side, but I think it's their way to keep the customer going back.....

Any feedback on the home laser device pleeeease Razz

sorry, forgot the link http://www.bnbmedical.co.kr/english/product/product_info.htm?no=20

Just click on "cancel" when it asks you to install the language pack, it's a korean site, but also in English

I found something similar online a while back too and thought wow what a fantastic idea! But as i researched it a bit more, i found that these lasers burn your skin a lot and are likely to leave scars, burn marks etc. I have really sensitive skin that flares up at the slightest discomfort. Don't know about you, but that was enough for me to give up on the idea and just have it professionally done.

I guess it does seem a little too good to be true.

Hi there... I thought that Epila would solve all my problems and purchased one off ebay a bit too hastily. What can I say except... DON`T EVER BUY ONE!!!!! It left burn marks on my skin and it doesn`t even remove the hair. All it does is burn like hell. I could even smell the hair burning, but it didn`t go all the way down to the root. What a load of BS!

Sorceress I was just thinking of you then when I read the thread!! I have seen quite a few bad write ups about these devices burning hair and skin.
