Thank you for making a real experience video! So many other influencers made Kenzie IPL videos and couldn’t speak to long term results which didn’t make me feel confident in making the purchase. I appreciate your honest reviews and willingness to actually try products as intended before putting your name on it!
I purchased the Kenzzi IPL handset a little over a year ago as Fransceka Boerman and Alexandra Garza were promoting it. My skin is on the darker side, but I did see that my underarm hair was much finer after using the handset a few times. I fell off with my treatments because life, but after seeing this video, I’m going to commit to using it for 12 weeks.
As always, great video, Kristina! Can’t wait to see the final results!
Will u use it regular once a week or what... kindly guide
Hi Kristina, I don’t typically make comments, but I just wanted to say that you are great, I found your channel during the pandemic and you were so very honest about your life as an anesthesiologist and what you were going through at the time. Congrats on your new baby!
Thank you so much Valerie!!
I so appreciate you and your review of this product. I have suffered from PCOS and excessive testosterone resulting in god-awful facial hair growth that is dark and all over my upper lip, chin, lower jaw line, neck, and sideburn areas. I have to shave all of those areas every single day. I just ordered this item and hope to have successful results. Fingers crossed!!! 😁🤞
Hey did it work for you ?
Did this end up working for you? I have PCOS facial hair too and was wondering if this helped at all
Hey, just wondering if this worked for you as I too suffer from pcos hair
I have the same facial hair issues, diagnosed with hirsutism. Been dealing with facial hair since puberty! I bought the Braun silk pro 5 ipl around 300-350 price range (there are other ones on the market like the Kenzzi), and I'm on just my second treatment on my face. Cant speak about the results for that yet. I like it because I can do at home and maintain it once I get to a good point. I'm praying for good results. So far, I've done my underarms and it's slowed down growth to where I only shave once a week.
I've done professional laser treatments on my face but that hasn't been permanent and it caused hair growth in extended areas. I stopped because it was just too expensive and the other reasons above. I've also done electrolysis and that didn't work for me as a permanent solution and was expensive, time consuming too. Now, I just continued to pluck which takes a lot of time, ugh. I know ipl isn't permanent but I want to get to your point where I'm not plucking or shaving or whatever every single day.
Heyyy did it work for you? ^^
I’ve been looking at this awhile but thought it was too good to be true. Thank you for giving it a good trial and going over who would see the best results. Glad I just saved $50 too! Thank you!
Subbed 💚 has anyone tried the skin genics IPL ? Thoughts ?
Yes affordable and works. Found em after searching. Avoid kensies IPL
Super affordable found them through a quick search
I got my ipl from skin genics too and i can attest its been like 3 yrs since i had it.. cheap and works. Hope that helps :)
I have and I love it
I just purchased one. I need to know how to use this thing.
If you’re still doing your greys anatomy reacting series, I recommend S8 E24, S10 finale, and S13 finale:) I’m a new subscriber and I really like the content you make:)))
I started using a ipl (different brand) last year. I’m quite satisfied with the results. I didn’t know about the hyperpigmentation, learned something new today :)
I got this right around Christmas time and it's awesome- highly recommend! I was wondering if you'd ever mention this product after you've been talking about the microdermabrasion, and I'm so glad you did! The comment about "what this light window has seen" made me laugh out loud! I've had the same thoughts hahaha
This has been sitting in my cart for weeks now! Thank you for evaluating it. This will make a great additional (early) birthday gift for my daughter!!
So, I’ve seen aloottttt of youtubers give rave reviews and have been tempted but was still skeptical. But if Dr. Kristina says it’s good, I’m adding to cart. 🤣
As a light skinned person with really dark hair, this feels like an actual miracle as well as a good investment.
Me too super light with really dark hair… going to give it a go ….
OMG. Long-time follower. I rarely comment, but I just saw you have 237k in followers. I'm so proud! Cannot wait to buy all my nurse friends scrubs when they come out! You go, girl!
The crazy thing is that I was literally thinking about this device yesterday! Girl get outta my head! 😂
I'm just like your phone - listening to you alllll the timeeeeee 😆
Had it for 2 weeks. I have been waxing for years but never did arm pits and got a bad case with chin hair. No results yet but it's early. I will say my skin got red but it went away in a few minutes.
Be careful not to let your skin touch the lens or it will hurt really bad.
Hi. Do you still use it? Pls update
@@amritak5578 I used it for months and noticed no results. I started getting it done professionally and saw results after 2 sessions.
Fall this year: noted! I’ll added to my calendar! I’m so exited about your scrub line!
This is an older video but the best ive watched and most informative thank you 😊
I want to thank you because you are also helping me on being a first time mom of now toddler and things no one explained to me🙏🤗🤗
I'm having a lap cholecystectomy with possible conversion to open next week. I already know, when I meet the Anesthesiologist I'm gonna think of you. 😉 I'll probably tell the Doc about that after having the calming med before the knock out portion of the program. 🤣🤣🤣
CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS SCRUB LINE LAUNCH!!!!! Ever since you messaged me back saying they would be perfect for someone like me (PT in HH setting) I have been waiting & saving to purchase some!!!
Thank you for sharing this! I have done laser hair removal and ipl at spas and love the results! This is amaz amazing to be able to at home! Thank you! Just ordered! 😃
finally a medical review of IPL! thank you! btw Kristina I know you are a busy lady, where could I contact you about tips about entering medical school and studying with a disability (especially with chronic pain) thank you!
ahhh i'm here so early again. love it! Hope you all are having a wonderful day!
Isn't it funny how none of these sponsored ads say this machine or that gadget is crap don't waste your money?
I appreciate how informative you are with your reviews! Thank you !

Oh
Hey,
Does it help with removing strawberry legs or reducing the visibility of it?
It could. Although this device isn't specifically designed for that since its wavelength mainly targets melanin, whereas strawberry leg has a blood vessel component to it. Also strawberry leg isn't an exact medical term and some causes of it might be helped with this IPL whereas others won't.
@TukTuk usually a colloquial term to describe skin that has tiny little (usually) red dots on it. Many different causes. Usually involves blood vessels but sometimes, it's just keratosis pilaris (little bumps on skin). If it is "bumpy", routine gentle exfoliation and moisturizer can help. Best to have it diagnosed precisely by a doc before self-treating though
Can you do a video on postpartum hair loss? I just had a baby back in February and by April my hair was still intact so I thought I was clear. In may my hair just went 💨 so I have two bald patches. It’s so frustrating.
I was literally looking at reviews for this yesterday. 😭 now i have to get it lol jokes, but it’s in my cart lol
So here for this🙌🏽 I’m excited to see your opinion.
Thank you. Being that you are a doctor I trust this is a good product if you say so.
This is awesome! I would love to do this on my upper lip, I do have a small mole and you mentioned avoiding those, will it burn on contact with darker skin or just not work? Also, will taking biotin cancel out the IPL? Thanks!
It won’t work and it could potentially darken moles or beauty marks. So I would just steer clear of them
I appreciate your integrity.
Sneaky sneaky hit of the scrub drop in fall of 2021!!?!! 😂😍🥰
I just ordered a Nood 2.0, I hope it works out well for me! I have very blonde arm hair so probably won’t work there, but my knees to shins, underarms, and bikini should be dark enough to work!
I’m wondering is this can be used for the sole purpose of hyperpigmentation. I have some areas on my face that I need hyperpigmentation help with, but I’m light skin toned and light hair in those areas.
Subbed and liked...I would die of euphoria if I won one of those gorgeous bags!❤ Thank you for providing professional information! There's so much misinformation out there!
I just ordered one and can’t wait.
I have seen this device all around youtube and I finally decided to try it! Unfortunately, I did have a mix up on my order, and customer service has been horrible :( I looked around online and a lot of people have also had negative experiences with customer service or even redeeming the 90 day money back guarantee because they require you to pay for return shipping (to New Zealand) before they refund you, which is strange because I don't know why the company would want to take back a broken device.
I just bought the microdermabrasion with 50.00 off…Thank you.
Thank you for your review! I've some questions. For the upper lip, do i need to shave there before starting treatment? My hair there is already quite fine and i either pluck or thread it. After doing the treatment, can i begin to pluck/thread that area, or do i need to wait a certain amount of time for the area to calm down?
Okay I bought it kristina
Less time dealing with all the hair. Armpit testimonial is a first, but I appreciate that! xo
Thanks for this did you at start do it every week?
Or should we do it every 6 weeks once?
I was going to do every sunday? Like u said setting alarm?
Will it remove red spots on the face caused by couperosis? Thanks for this great video! 🥰
New KB video. I’m here for it!
I’ve been thinking about this little thing for so long!!!
Great review!
Hi Kristina! I was wondering how this holds up for skin with eczema? Sometimes I get it on my armpit. You mentioned you used it before at the clinic for hyperpigmentation, can I use this device for that on my face?
I've been wanting to get one. I'm really glad you made this video.
Glad I could help! Hope you enjoy it if you end up purchasing it!
I recently ordered a Kenzzi, and have used it once. I am also focusing on the underarm area. I just wanted to know which setting you put it on. The first time, I used it on the lowest setting. Next time, I will increase it.
The first time, you should always use the lowest setting and see how you feel. I go pretty high though because I have very pale skin.
@@kristinabraly Thank you, Kristina! I think I’ll try it on 3 next time.
Unfortunately it didn't work for me.
Dang I'm sorry to hear that Holly! It's not for everyone. Hopefully you took advantage of the money back guarantee
@@kristinabraly I know I was bummed. I bought it for sunspots on my legs (I’m in my 50’s). I had watched Angie at hot and flashy and she had success with her legs, so I was excited to try it out. I gave it the full 12 weeks and then decided to keep doing it longer to see if I just needed more time. By doing that I was unable to get the refund, but it’s ok. I knew it wouldn’t help with my hair since it’s not very dark. I know this works for many though, just not me. Thanks Kristina!
Of course it didn't work. These home machines pulse light is less than 7 joules per CM2. Saloons/clinics lasers work at 4 times stronger power. The Tuber in the video is being paid to say what she says. Course she isn't going to say it is crap, save your money.
@@daviniarobbins9298 I know it has worked for some women with darker hair, it just doesn't work well on light hair or age spots.
Hey KB! Is it ok for use on facial hair? Thank you for your review.
Yes it is but you need to be very clear about protecting your eyes.
Hi Queen your Hair looks so beautiful.💝💝
Awesome review 😁❤️👍
Completely off topic; can you do a video about what to discuss with your anesthesiologist prior to surgery? Also, I am naturally a red head, but I’m now gray. Should I tell the doctor that originally God made me a red head? (I’m not scheduled for surgery, but you never know!) Thank you!!
My red hair has dulled a lot with age as well. Honestly, it doesn’t even look red anymore. I’ve wondered the same thing you’ve asked.
@@fiftyfive70 - Well, there are two of us, so that means we aren’t crazy for wondering!! 😂♥️
@@CowboyBike06 😆
Hi, Is it works for black hair and skin? I want use for my face, do I need protection eye glass?
Thank you
I guess you don't need to wear any eye protection, right? Also, any idea how this compares with the Costco's Silk'n BellaFlash? Thanks Kristina!
No eye protection needed, just use common sense. Don’t look directly at the light as it flashes. It’s oddly tempting!
If you’ve got a lot of blonde body hair, know that you’re still going to have it after. Doesn’t work on blonde hair.
If I'm a guy who is interested in using this kit to remove my facial hair (in place of the traditional shaving with razor blade), do I need to shave my moustache and beard 1st prior to using this kit? Or can I just use it directly on my facial hair? And would this kit work on both dry and wet/damp skin? Or do I need to thoroughly dry my skin 1st?
Can you do a review on the Monsia Silk Series?
Is IPL safe for breastfeeding mom?
I bought latest version and it broke after few months and they didn’t give my money back
Hey. Are you not supposed to wear eye protective glasses???
I have the IPL , Im trying my 2x treatment. Im disappointed. The device stopped working. It makes a noise but it does not light up nor shows messages like the numbers and the OFF message. what am I supposed to do, or think maybe its broken for good? It is brand new!! I do not know what's wrong with it. sad.
Can I use on roseca?
I'm sold. Why am I just seeing this now? 😂
I wish this would work for me, but I have that super fine, light hair on both my arms and legs. It would be good for armpits and other areas, but not my legs. Which, I guess in the end does end up being a blessing. Because it’s so light and fine I only have to shave my legs once every other week. 🙈😂
how does this compare to a braun ipl? I'm trying to decide which one I want 🤔
It does not work for me. It's also not painless.
what happens if you use it over a mole?
Wait so I need to do this like every week or every month?
Do you know if IPL would work on telangiectasia that is not associated with rosacea??
Is this safe to use while pregnant? Thanks! Love your videos 😃
No
Has anyone tried Diamond skin pro ipl, please? Does it work? I tried to find reviews and lot of people were upset with this company and no refund policy.
Can it be used after having laser hair removal ?
I have psoriasis but get a shot to keep it under control and wonder if this would be ok….hmmmm
This is not indicated for the treatment of psoriasis. Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition and IPL should not be used as a treatment and could even potentially harm you.
Do U need to do use a cooling gel
I use retina a on my arms is it safe to use this on my arms
Buyer beware. Permanent skin damage possible
Do they have a warranty? (This might have been mentioned and I missed it)
Yes! 12 month warranty and 90-day money-back guarantee it says!
Dr. Braly will you have tall sizes ?
Working on getting them for the second drop!
Is this armpit safe??
Hi, I'm a blonde too and I hope this will work on my bikini zone and legs as I do have dark blond hair there. Can you give me some hope? I do have this fine baby hair on the arm and face as well, so this will not work. But the strong and darker (not dark) hair below my waistline might react???
Yes same it works!!
Cant get mine to even turn on Help
Does anyone know where her necklace is from?
Hi! It’s by Astrid and Miyu! shop-links.co/1743873713677349926
@@kristinabraly Thank you so much for responding.
Does it work for brazilian? I had professional treatments for multiple areas but there's just a few spots on my body they didn't quite get. So rather than try to go back doing awkward yoga poses with someone else I'd rather get this.
Will it help with sunspots?
Yes it helps with hyper pigmentation!
@@kristinabraly thank you!! Just had a baby too! Can we make a GoFundMe for someone to discover the pp hairless like you said!
Just ordered it!
I used it well over the 12 weeks and have since as well. It didn't get rid of mine. That was the reason I bought it so I was disappointed. I have lighter hair so I knew it wouldn't work on that part. Hope you have better results.
Is this one FDA approved?
No, this is not. If you want FDA approved one, please contact me on WhatsApp +86-15323714634
I love laser hair removal! I would rather stick with it!
I'm so glad that laser hair removal has worked wonders for you! Stick with what you love! xx
@@kristinabraly thanks Kristina! Definitely sticking with it! Xx
First comment!!
At 1000000 subscribers you will give a $15000+ Hermes bag??? 😳
Yes
💯🫡
I'm nonbinary (amab) and usually skip patch tests because I'm inpatient and don't wanna wait longer lmao
I bought Nair and was like "fuck it, I want my body hair gone now" so just applied it to my whole body and it worked well but the hair came back really quickly
I tried those hair removal creams. Did it for 17 weeks, nearly 50 treatments. All it did was make my skin turn super red with a chemical burn which faded 24 hours later thankfully. Also flipping painful. Like a bad sun burn. Total waste of money that cream was.
Had no luck with a cheap sub £50 IPL machine after 31 weeks over two winters and virtually no hair reduction. Currently trying a more expensive machine and after 7 weeks worth of treatments, small reduction but nothing to write home about. Bought second hand though, wasn't prepared to spend nearly £400 on it brand new.

Excited for IPL 2024 with 4RABeT, it's going to be a season of great cricket and even greater prizes 🎉💥
Hello,may I have your email?
Thanks Kristina. I’ve been eyeing this apparatus for a while and was curious if it works for the face area. If so, will it make my hyperpigmentation worse.. Your video answered it all and omg a $50 code to boot! Went ahead and ordered mine so it’s on its way🥂tysm🤍
Isn't this woman on Kid Snippets?! 🩷😆
Wait so i need to do this like every week or every month??
