Had it on the low setting as they recommend at first. No pain at all. Not sure how effective it was since the hair seems to be growing out as usual. Will try it at a higher power next week. It is pretty quick though. Only took a few minutes total.
More to follow...

Looking to use it on underarms, chest (as much as my wife will allow), abs, groin, and legs. Have had laser hair removal on groin 10 years ago and most grew back. Don't like epilating or shaving since I get ingrowns on like 10% of the hairs. Yuck. Keeping my fingers crossed that it works for me. Will report back in a month or so.
I haven't been as diligent as I should have been the past few months but I have had some good results. Used on underarms about a dozen times and have had at least a 50% reduction. On breasts and tummy, about the same. Have only done my upper thighs and feet/ankles on my legs so far and it is working, just slowly. It definitely takes more time than they say it does. I spend about 90 minutes to do my underarms, breasts, and tummy. About another 90 for waist to almost knees front and back and feet/ankles. I'm 6'1" 280lb so there's a lot of me to cover though. I took some pictures but they don't show enough detail. Will try a better camera.
On the plus side, I've had far fewer ingrown hairs than when I waxed or epilated. I've tried it on my face a few times and it has reduced growth a bit, but I am at least 60% grey so I don't have much hope for it there.
Overall, I'm pleased with the results. Hoping to bite the bullet and shave my entire legs and arms soon. Love the softness! My lovely wife isn't ready for that now but is understanding. Life is hard sometimes. I love her dearly.
Has anyone else had better/worse results with the BellaFlash?
