The Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 PL5137 works with light pulses and gradually reduces the hair. Since the skin tone can be different in different parts of the body, the SensoAdapt skin tone sensor (with UV protection) is built into the device, which continuously adjusts the light intensity to the skin tone – 80 times a second. The Braun Silk-expert Pro 5 PL5137 has two different performance modes, a normal mode and a gentle mode. The sliding mode is also available for quick and effective use. The scope of delivery includes a precision attachment that can also be used to treat smaller, sensitive areas such as the face or bikini line. The PL5137 is operated via the mains voltage and therefore does not need to be charged and is always ready for immediate use. The built-in skin contact sensor ensures that light pulses are only sent when the device is directly on the skin. The Silk-expert Pro 5 is 15% smaller and 25% lighter than its predecessor.
