Is laser or light pulse painful?
Most of those who have gone through laser and light pulse therapy report some discomfort and perhaps even slight pain. Home laser units like the Tria Laser Hair Removal System offers 5 levels of intensity. Customers describe levels 1 and 2 as being hardly noticeable. Level 3 is light a light snap from a rubber band. Levels 4 and 5 are like firmer snaps. With light pulse therapy like that offered by Silk’n SensEpil there is only one intensity level and those who use it report it creates slight discomfort or tingling, but not intense pain.
