GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH i-LIGHT
C
, What is i-Light?
The i-Light PRO system is a revolutionary light-based device designed for the removal of unwanted body
hair and female facial hair at home.
, What is Intense Pulse Light (IPL) and how does the i-Light work?
i-Light works by directing an extremely short, intense pulse of light into the skin. The light energy is
absorbed by the melanin in the hair follicle temporarily disabling the growth mechanism in the hair and
delaying hair growth.
Hair follicles typically pass through three phases throughout the hair growth cycle. These phases are:
Anagen Phase (growing phase) – the active growth phase of the hair follicles. Melanin concentration is at
its highest as it is responsible for pigmentation of the hair. Only hairs in the anagen phase are susceptible
to treatment with IPL (fig 2).
Catagen Phase (degradation phase) – this is a short transition stage, which follows the anagen phase and
signals the end of the active growth stage of the hair. It typically lasts 2-3 weeks (fig. 3).
Telogen Phase (resting phase) – the hair follicle is completely at rest during this phase, which is the
longest phase and lasts about 100 days. During this time, the new hairs push out the old hairs, allowing
the growth cycle to begin again (fig. 4).

, What to expect from i-Light
It's important to continue with the full treatment regime to ensure that every active hair is treated. A full
treatment regime is every 2 weeks for three treatments.
Individual results may vary, multiple treatments may be required for optimal results.
After completing the initial treatment regime, continuous regular weekly use will give good results within
6-12 weeks (darker skin tones may take longer).
