The Silk’n Laser Hair removal system is designed to remove body hair for cosmetic purposes. The system works best on light skinned individuals because there is less potential for skin damage. People with darker skin pigmentation will absorb too much of the laser energy which can cause skin damage. While the Silk’n system is a home use product is does not come cheap. The hair removal product retails for about $800. If you are someone who goes to a clinic to have your hair removed professionally, you may want to check into the Silk’n system. In the long run you would actually save money by using a home-use product.
