"Silk’n has been the leader in IPL at home laser hair removal devices for years and I would highly recommend their Silk’n 7 IPL device. It is the only device on the market to combine galvanic energy to the IPL to enhance the penetration of light into the follicle, leading to improved results.
In addition, it has a large spot size allowing for faster treatment of larger areas, a rotatable head for ease of use, and a skin color sensor that is a very important safety feature for darker skin types."

Real experiences with our IPL device
Most at-home laser hair removal devices use IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) relying on optical energy to target hair follicles. Our Silk’n 7 device takes it a step further by combining optical and galvanic energy. Discover ourpatented 'e-HPL™ (Enhanced Home Pulsed Light)' Technology:
This technology ensures more effective, often painless hair removal—even for men with thick body hair or people with stubborn ingrown hairs.
While other brands rely on high-intensity treatments that can cause skin irritation or even burns and blisters, Silk’n 7 takes a gentler, smarter approach.
By combining optical and galvanic energy to open the pores, it delivers the best results with lower intensity—making the process safer and more comfortable for your skin.

Another feature that sets our IPL device apart from others is the 360° rotating head. With 6 adjustable angles you can treat your entire body and target those tricky areas, like the bikini line and upper lip, comfortably and with great precision.
Setting it up is simple and intuitive, thanks to the unlock button at the base of the head. You can move the device freely and remove unwanted hair from every angle of your body.
This feature has been praised across a range of reviews—from influencers and experts to everyday users like you and me.
We don’t stop at rotating heads! Silk'n 7 also comes with three different attachments, each designed for specific areas and needs.
1) Save time and money by getting professional results at home, without costly laser treatments.
2) Premium device: Silk’n 7 is truly one of a kind, packed with extra features you won’t find in other devices. The 360° rotating head and three different treatment sizes not only make your experience smoother but also speed up your sessions significantly.
3) Patented eHPL™: Alongside its smaller sister, the Infinity, Silk’n 7 is the only hair removal device on the market that blends optical and galvanic energy, known as our patented 'eHPL™ technology'. The magic of galvanic energy? It gently opens the pores, allowing optical energy to reach deeper for smooth, painless hair removal, even on stubborn ingrown hairs.
An IPL device that outperforms one with 'Fast' in its name? Discover why the Silk’n 7 is even faster and will deliver you the best hair removal experience:
Many users expect instant results, but real improvements take time. Reality is it doesn’t work in just a week time. Hair removal works with your natural growth cycle, and customer feedback shows that the best results become visible around the three-month mark. This timing aligns perfectly with how your skin and hair regenerate.

Everyone is talking about IPL hair removal these days. It sounds interesting, but do you know how IPL hair removal works? And maybe you are wondering, “Is IPL hair removal right for me?” In this blog we will answer all of your questions related to IPL hair removal at home.
The Silk’n 7 hair removal device offers a complete solution and long-lasting results without the hassle, high costs, or discomfort of other methods:
Contrary to popular belief, IPL (specifically eHPL in our case) is not a laser. While both use light to treat the skin, IPL emits multiple wavelengths in quick flashes, whereas lasers use a focused beam. This makes IPL less intense but more versatile. IPL can cover larger areas, offers faster recovery times, has a lower risk of complications, and, not least, comes at a much lower cost.
A common misconception is that "permanent results" mean hair will never grow back.
Our bodies have billions of hair follicles, many of which are dormant and can become active due to factors like pregnancy, menopause, or medication. This can make it seem like hair is returning, but it's actually new hair growing.
While treatments prevent regrowth, they can't stop new hair from forming. Just like professional treatments, you’ll need follow-ups. But the beauty of owning a hair removal device at home is that you have it for life, ready to touch up those spots whenever you need.
Everyone's hair growth cycle is different. Your hair follicles go through three different phases: anagen (growth), catagen (transition), and telogen (resting). The anagen phase is the only stage where treatments can deliver permanent results.
Since you can’t see which phase your follicles are in from the surface, consistent use is essential. Hair cycles through these phases over 2 to 6 months, so regular treatments help catch more hairs in the anagen phase.
eHPL technology from Silk'n 7 provides a safer experience with lower energy levels, delivering long-term hair removal results at a fraction of the energy level used in other lightbased hair removal devices. This is made possible by our combination of galvanic energy (opens pores gently) and optical energy (penetrates without burning your skin).
Read all about the myths vs. reality in our dedicated blog post: Does IPL hair removal hurt? Myths vs. Reality
Light-based hair removal isn't suitable for tanned and dark skin, but our device includes a built-in skin color sensor that adjusts energy levels based on your skin tone. By using lower energy, we reduce the risk of harm or complications, ensuring your safety. Additionally, the treatment surface is recessed inside the device to prevent direct contact with your skin.
No special eyewear is required! Our device includes an eye protection feature: flashes only emit when the treatment surface is in contact with your skin, keeping your eyes safe during use.
Silk’n 7 hair removal device is equipped with a built-in skin sensor and has 5 energy levels (1 the lowest, 5 the highest). How do you choose the energy level for your skin?
For more detailed usage and safety instructions, consult our manual.
We recommend treating once every two weeks for the first two months. This schedule works for most people, though those with faster hair growth may benefit from more frequent treatments.
After the first two months, most people will start to see results, often as quickly as two or three sessions. What you’ll notice is that hair growth slows down, and you might even see bald patches in the treated areas, which indicates the treatment is working. Once you enter maintenance mode, you can treat monthly or as needed. It’s important to stick to this schedule, as skipping treatments can cause dormant hair to resurface, making it seem like hair is growing back, when in fact it’s new hair emerging.
Make sure to shave before your treatment—that's a common myth we want to clear up.
Some salons recommend leaving a bit of stubble, but that's because their devices operate at higher energy levels, and it helps the technician to see the treatment area. With our device, hair should be completely removed beforehand for the best results. Users who left hair on the skin weren’t seeing optimal results.
Do not wax, tweeze or use depilatory creams as these methods may detach the root leaving nothing left to treat. Shaving gets rid of the hair on the surface of the skin but keeps the root intact; when the IPL finds the root, it’s disabled and won’t grow back.
Treatments can be started anytime, but the best time is in the fall or winter since sun exposure should be avoided during sessions. Start now, and by the time spring and summer arrive, your skin will be silky smooth - leaving you with only one thing to worry about: planning your next beach trip!
For your safety, we recommend avoiding the use of IPL after sun exposure. Sun exposure increases melanin levels and these higher melanin levels can make your skin more vulnerable to light-based hair removal methods. To minimize risks, avoid sun exposure for 4 weeks before and 2 weeks after your treatment.
To get the best results, we suggest starting your treatments in the fall or winter, so you can enjoy clean, healthy, and smooth skin by summer. If you prefer to continue treatment in summer, focus on areas not exposed to the sun, like underarms.
You can safely treat your bikini line with the IPL hair removal device (we advise to use the attachement size 2.5 cm²), but do not use the device on the genitals.
You should not treat on tattoos, large dark moles or permanent makeup as the IPL light is attracted to pigment and may cause discomfort or adverse reactions. We suggest using white medical tape to cover these areas and carefully working around them for safe hair removal.
Yes, our Silk'n 7 hair removal device is perfect for men. Men’s hair is usually thicker, coarser, and more deeply rooted. That’s why the Silk’n 7 is a great choice. Its galvanic energy helps open the pores, allowing the light to reach the hair more effectively. One of our male customers even shared that he got rid of all his ingrown hairs!
