Q. How often should I treat with i-Light?
A. Anintervalof2weeksfortheinitialtreatment,isproventobethemosteectiveinhairreduction.You
should avoid treating the same area multiple times in one session, as it will not improve ecacy but
increases the risk of skin irritation.
Q. Can I use i-Light if I have blonde, red, grey or white hairs?
A. i-Light works best on darker hair types because they contain more melanin, the pigment that gives hair
and skin its colour. Melanin is what absorbs the light energy used during i-Light treatment. Black and
dark brown hairs respond the best. Brown and light brown hairs will also respond, but typically require
more treatments. Red hairs may show some response. White, grey or blonde hairs usually don’t respond
to i-Light treatments, although some users have noted results after multiple treatments.
Q. Can I use i-Light if I have naturally dark skin?
A. No. i-Light is designed to react with the dark pigment of the hair. As a result, dark brown and black skin
may absorb too much of the device’s energy (heat), which may cause skin damage. Do not use i-Light on
naturally dark skin, as it contains too much melanin. Treating dark skin with i-Light can result in burns,
blisters and skin colour changes (hyper- or hypo-pigmentation).
Review the skin colour chart on page 3 to determine if i-Light is right for you.
Q. Do I need eye protection while using i-Light?
A. No, it is not harmful to the eyes, unless it is directed to the face (Body treatment head only). i-Light
