Here are the 8 benefits of epilation

1. Epilation provides lasting smoothness

With epilation, you get smooth skin that lasts up to 4 weeks. That’s because removing hair from the root means that hair takes longer to grow back than removal with surface methods like shaving and creams. Plus, when it does grow back it’s softer and finer than before.

2. Epilation is more efficient than waxing on short hairs

While both epilation and waxing remove hairs from the root, waxing can press hairs flat against the skin, making them harder to lift and remove. Braun Silk-epil tweezer technology catches hair as small as a grain on sand (0.5mm). No more in-between days, no more hassle.

3. Epilation is gentle

With every epilation session the discomfort you may have felt the first time around decreases noticeably. That’s why the Braun Silk-épil epilators gives you a virtually painless experience with regular use.

4. Epilation helps hair grow back less noticeably

First, as hairs are removed at the root, hairs grow back with softer, narrower tips than hairs removed with a razor, so they feel softer and finer to the touch. Second, as hair grows back at different speeds depending on the phase of the hair growth cycle they are in, there is also less hair to be removed after the first few sessions.

5. Epilation is not just for your legs

Silk-epil epilators are available with different attachments, depending which model you choose. The attachments are specifically designed to give you superior results for different body parts.

6. Epilation is great for sensitive skin

Epilating in the bath is the hair removal solution for modern women everywhere. It is ideally suited for sensitive skin and those new to epilating. As the tweezers on an epilation head do not pull the skin directly when removing hair, there is minimal effect on the skin. Epilation is a great option for cold or dry seasons, when daily hair removal may irritate your skin.

7. Suitable for all women, all year round

Epilators provide long lasting hair free skin for all women no matter what their skin tone, tan or hair color.

8. Immediate results you can trust

No need for preparation like shaving or letting your hair regrow – your Braun epilator reliably captures hairs as short as a grain of sand (0.5 mm) and gives you smooth skin immediately – and for up to 4 weeks. So you’re ready to go whenever you want.
