Q. Can I use the i-Light device if I have naturally dark skin?
A. No. the i-Light device 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 the i-Light device 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 (page 3) to determine if i-Light Pro Face & Body is right for you.
Q. Do I need eye protection while using the i-Light device?
A. No, it is not harmful to the eyes, unless it is directed to the face (Body treatment head
only).The i-Light device features a safety system which prevents unintentional ashing
when the device is not in contact with the skin. The small amount of light emitted during
treatment is similar to that of a camera ash and is not harmful to the eyes. The specially
facial treatment head minimises light leakage.I the
light is unpleasant,

Q. Can I use the i-Light device if I am pregnant or nursing?
A. No. The i-Light device has not been tested on pregnant women, therefore we do not
recommend using the i-Light device if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Hormonal
changes could increase sensitivity and the risk of injury to the skin.
