Review title is Slow process, but good results [SEP] I was nervous about getting this. There are SO MANY models and brands and reviews out there that I finally decided on one that was within my price range to try, but also had decent reviews. I've had this now for about 4 months and have not had any re-growth of the hairs I've taken out. That's what I was looking for - lasting results. That being said, it is tricky to get used to doing this. It's best if you have someone doing it for you. There are a couple of things to keep in mind: 1. You go one hair at a time, and each one took me about 3-4 minutes, and the instructions say not to do more than a square inch of skin at a time. So depending on how much of an area you want to do, and how dense the hair is it may take months and months to clear a significant area, and that's if you do it every other day. 2.) You will have unsightly sores. You are penetrating your epidermis and electrocuting the hair follicle, so you will get a scab on each pore you zap. I used the Tea Tree lotion they recommend on Amazon and it seemed to work fine. I don't know if it would have been the same without the oil. My scabs were there the same amount of time any other scab I've had has been on me - about a week.<br /><br />So it's slow going and leaves scabs, but once the scabs went away my hair has not come back at all. It's been great that way! I'm really glad I bought it. The reasons I didn't give five stars is because it said, &#34;Clean and Easy&#34;. It's not easy, and when something leaves you scabbed over, that doesn't scream &#34;clean&#34; to me. The other reason is because I had to zap each follicle twice on the highest setting before it worked. But I gave it four stars because it did work! So for the price, and once you get used to it, and if you have a way to hide the scabs for a week, then it's great. I'm happy with the results, which for me is the bottom line.
