Blondiejean, the product initially retailed at around $700 several years ago when it was new technology. It is now $395.

The Tria cannot be used on brown skin. Lasers target pigment, so anyone with darker skin cannot safely use them. The Tria worked great for me, probably because I am the perfect candidate for it-light skin with dark hair. For those with dark skin, an alternate product, which does not use a laser, is the eGlide. I have a review of that up on Beauty and Fashion Tech. But the eglide is a bit of an annoyance to use on the legs. It is much cheaper though.

[Carleenpruess]

The product has worked rather well. I tested it on my lower legs over a year or more, but did not use it as consistently as I should. I rarely shave in that area now. Most of the hair is gone. It makes me wish I had used it on the upper legs too, although my hair there is so light that I don't know if it would take all that well since lasers work best on fair skin with dark hair. I am more likley to try it on my underarms again next (I did that for a while and then got lazy and stopped).

It is normal for the Tria to beep. If you don't set it flat, the light won't activate and then you simply repeat that spot.

[Carleenpruess]

The Tria is not meant to be used on the face, primarily because a laser can be very dangerous to the eyes. I suspect the company would also not recommended it for the throat area. However, you might be interested in the Eglide, which you CAN use in the facial area. For more info, see my Permanent Hair Removal Buyers Guide, which is linked at the top.

I have had good results with it. It does take months of use though (but so does professional laser hair removal) . I recommend the Tria over the Silk'n Sens, although it also gets good reviews. I recently put up a buyer's guide on Beauty and Fashion Tech with four permanent hair removal systems covered.

You can buy this product for about $500. Where did you pay $700 for it?

[justme822]

so how did the laser work

[knowntothose]

Can you use the device on brown skin people and that is why you have serveral settings? And how well has the product worked so far? Can you make an update video.

[wanda190]

well it's been over 2years since you've uploaded this video hows the product worked for you...im still a little skeptical...

[cherryicedtea]

hello. can nyou do a follow up video?

[NickiAnn17]

it looks like you were having issues... the light was not flashing a few times and it was beeping all funky...

[sOsakin1992]

i have a beard problem, can i use it on my throat

[gizmorain15]

How were the results with the TRIA laser? Would you recommend it?

[Carleenpruess]

Hi Ashley. Yes, it was done with a basic flip camera. I have been pretty happy with it, although I wish it had a jack for an external microphone. I think the Kodak video cameras add that.

[AshleySmit]

Kinda off topic but what camera did you use to record this? Is it just a flip cam?

i been going tanning off and on for 3 yrs now. Is it still safe for me to use the product if i stop tanning for a couple weeks before using the product?

[Carleenpruess]

I am working on an update for the blog. So far, it is working pretty well. I'm not hairless, but it is noticeably lessened now. It does take awhile (7 months or longer).

I was not paid to review the Tria, and I do not do any paid reviews. I was, however, provided with the product and a flip camera to use to make the video. You may see a number of videos on youtube since I think they contacted multiple bloggers. Most companies contact multiple people.

[xLilleh]

it seems like the company paid people/made youtube accounts to advertise this product..

[logline]

Could you please update us with your results?
