Has anyone tried this? How effective was it? Is there a device you would recommend?

I've had several lots of laser treatment with the Harley Med Group and it has been brilliant - no soreness, hardly any regrowth, etc. I'd like some more areas done and am trying to decide between going back and IPL at home.

Thought please, ladies!

Me! I am trying this.
I bought a Remington thingy in early summer last year.
It kinda works. Doesn't hurt.
You're meant to use it fortnightly, consistently, and I must admit I am not that consistent.
Certainly slows regrowth a lot. I think on my bikini line there is good progress. Legs not so much.
If I could afford proper salon laser treatment, I'd do it, but this has proved quite a good 'economy' alternative (got it from Amazon for £200, but will need to replace the bulbs quite soon).
My motivation for buying it was the bikini line. I just hate any wisps poking out, but equally hate razor stubble and ingrowing lumps after waxing. This has been a wonderful solution to that and if there is a permanent end in sight, so much the better.

Thanks for your reply!

Hmm. "Kinda works"... Might just go back for more laser, which 99% works, in that case.

Any other opinions?
