Too good to be kept a secret: The 8 best benefits of epilation

Epilation is a great alternative to traditional razor shaving or waxing. There are several key benefits epilation can provide. Read on to learn more.

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-épil tweezer technology catches hair as small as a grain of 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. High Frequency Massage System stimulates the skin for a more comfortable experience.

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-épil 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 like bikini or underarms.

6. Epilation is great for sensitive skin

Braun Silk-épil epilators are designed to pull the hair, not the skin. So there is minimal effect on the skin. For beginners, it’s recommended to epilate in the bath as it helps open up pores for easier hair removal. It is ideally suited for sensitive skin and those new to epilating.

7. Suitable for all women, all year round

Epilators provide long lasting hair-free skin for all women no matter what their skin tone or hair color. Epilation is a great option for cold or dry seasons, when daily hair removal may irritate your skin.

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.
