It's only rated for 40,000 flashes. Considering it treats such a tiny area with a flash, is that enough to get rid of hair on a man's full back and torso, considering it takes many treatments?
And would that be end of the device's life after that?
I also wonder if the flashes weaken as the bulb(?) ages.

FYI it works even on my Middle eastern "light Wheat" skin color.
All thanks to the built in auto sensor I felt safe using it.

Use once a week for six weeks, then only once a month per instructions.

It has three 3 power (Comfort) modes. I personally use the highest mode even though it stings, so I suggest to stick with either light or medium mode for beginners.

I was skeptical but it definitely works, and no need to waste time, and lots lots of money to go to the SPA anymore!

Why does this look so much like a phaser from Star Trek The Next Generation?

Do you need all the flash windows?
Nope.

You get everything you need with the standard window for all body areas and the small window for face and uneven areas, or where precision is important (e.g. bikini area).

The medium-size 3cm2 (1 by 3 cm) and small 1.65cm2 (1.1 by 1.65 cm) flash windows with the Braun Pro 5 IPLare the important ones, and all you really need to zap your full body.
Everything you need for a fast and thorough Braun Pro 5 IPL zapping session…
The latest and more expensive Pro 5 IPL models come with also either the wide, or the wide and an extra precision flash window. But you don't need these to get the job done. So. if you wish to save some pennies, check prices before you choose which model to buy.

First, read the 1 and 2 star reviews on amazon - see one of the very first posts in this thread.

If you buy, pay with a credit card, NOT a debit card or other payment method.

That way, if the product doesn't work, and if they don't honor the 100-day money-back warranty, you can file a dispute with the credit card for failure to honor their promises. (But some credit cards don't really protect you in the case of disputes as well as others; I've heard American Express is pretty good (in general), and citi cards are not all that good.)
