our story

I’ve been fascinated by light and how it affects our skin ever since I had laser hair removal in college. The results were incredible, but the experience felt pretentious and out of reach for most people. Years later, I discovered IPL technology. With a background in electrical engineering, I saw an opportunity to bring professional-grade results home.

That idea became Nood.

Fast forward to today, over a million customers later, Nood has grown into something much bigger.

We’re challenging the status quo of aesthetics, pioneering clinical-grade solutions that do more than shape the flow of body hair. They help protect, reverse, and prevent the key signs of aging. Because at the end of the day, it’s about helping you feel your best in the skin you’re in.
