We Spent the Last Three Months Testing the Top 5 At-Home Laser Hair Removal Devices!
These are the top 5 at-home laser hair removal devices for anyone looking to permanently get rid of hair anywhere in under 8 weeks
By: Dr. Natalie Thompson, Renowned Esthetician
After experiencing the many pitfalls of shaving (ingrown hairs, redness, irritation, and speedy re-growth), we contemplated alternative hair removal methods this season. Since professional laser hair removal isn't the most time-friendly option (visits take up to two hours, & cost upwards of $400 per session), and some of us can't head out to an appointment right now, we're looking at the next best thing: at-home laser hair removal devices.
As a certified Esthetician practicing many years in the professional hair removal space, I was lucky enough to combine my love for hair removal and science to discover which at home devices truly work, and which are just another overhyped disappointment.
We tested 24 at-home laser hair removal devices, including models from Tria, HappySkinCo, Silk'n, Braun, and 5MinSkin. We rated the best five options based on the following criteria:
Results
We tested how many weeks it took for us to stop our hair growth, ideally trying to stop hair growth a couple months into weekly use. A few of the devices ended up working extremely well, delivering permanently hairless, silky skin to us.
Cost
If you were to go the in-office route, it would end up costing up to 400 dollars per session (between 6-8 sessions needed for laser hair removal. We were able to get great results with devices that ended up costing less than $400, with the best results from a handset costing just around $189*.
Safe for At-Home Use
New York-based dermatologist Josh Zeichner, MD, considers at-home lasers a safe alternative. "Lasers work by emitting a beam of light that is absorbed by a specific target in the skin," Dr. Zeichner explains. "In this case, the light is absorbed by pigment in the hair follicle to heat it up and destroy it, so the hair does not grow back. At-home devices work similarly to professional treatments."
