    Well they approved IPL devices for type v and vi because of the lower IPL settings and combined used of either RF or galvanic light. This bypasses the skin tone issue and you won’t get burned. Some machines even scan your skin and automatically adjust the setting with each flash. I’m willing to try it.

      @@sarahanderson6913 Sorry guys, I haven't gotten one.
      But whenever I read about it I am drawn to Silkn' Infinity. It is cleared for ALL tones on the Fitzpatrick Scale I - VI in the UK*, but in the US the same device Silk'n Infinity is only cleared for types I - V.
      Braun's Silk-expert Pro 5 PL5137 IPL would be my second choice and is cleared for Types I - V.
      But I encourage everyone to still do thorough research. I'm not a doctor, I just make as informed decisions as I can!
      Off topic but I spent countless hours learning about Red Light Therapy before I bought a device. So if anyone needs direction on that I can help.

      I live in the Uk country side and we have laser clinic… I travel once every 6 weeks to London (nearest clinic) to have my session. I’m on session 6 out of 8 and it’s the best thing I have ever done to my skin (I’m doing underarm and Brazilian) I now regret not having done my legs at the same time. I reach the point where I only shave the day before my appointment due to the la k of hair! Imagine how cool to not have hair grow for 6 weeks!!

    I went for a full bikini hair laser removal. When the lady saw my private parts, she didn't know it would be slightly darker than my body skin. 🥴
    Instead of telling me no it won't work, she used me as an experiment seems like ...
    Also, it was spring time, I take allergy pills for seasonal allergies.
    Let me tell ya, my coochy was on 🔥🔥🔥 for several hours after the skin...
    I couldn't sit, I couldn't stand, no position could soothe me 😢
    Basically she used IPL laser on dark skin and my skin was already sensitive because of allergy pills.. It was a Holy mess and traumatic 😵‍💫

      if you have dark (melanated skin) then IPL isn't an option. Its not about the shade of the skin but density of melanocytes in the skin.

      If you got a good one it should come with a melanin reader which should tell you not to use it. Based on your picture you are a skin type 6 and it’s possible to get a burn
