Q. How long do treatments take?
A. Time varies based on the size of the area being treated, but one full leg should take no more than
15 minutes.
Q. When will I begin to see results?
A. Results are not immediate. Hair may sometimes appear to be growing back after treatment but many
of these hairs will begin to fall out after two weeks.
Hair grows in a cycle of 3 different phases which lasts 18-24 months. Only hairs in the anagen phase are
susceptible to treatment, which is why multiple treatments are required for optimal results. The results
are generally noticeable within a few weeks of the first treatment. Continuous regular weekly (or every
2 weeks for three treatments) use will give good results within 6 to 12 weeks (darker skin may
take longer).
Q. Why is my hair growing despite treatments?
A. Hair continues to grow for up to 2 weeks after treatment, at which time you will notice the hair
beginning to fall out. Another reason for continued growth could be that the area was missed during a
treatment. Continue to treat the area whenever you notice regrowth.
Q. Why can’t I use i-Light after recent sun exposure?
A. Sun exposure causes high levels of melanin to be present and exposes the skin to higher risk of burns
or blisters following treatment.
Q. What are the warnings against using i-Light?
A. Certain conditions may limit your ability to use the unit. Please read the Warnings and Safety
Precautions section in the User Manual in its entirety before using i-Light.
Q. How often do I need to replace the bulb?
A. The long-life light cartridge will deliver 65,000 flashes regardless of the energy level selected. While it is
unlikely you will ever need to replace it; it can be replaced by another long-life cartridge or SP-6000SB
which delivers 1,500 flashes per cartridge. Please contact your local Remington® Service Centre.
Q. Can I use i-Light on my face?
A. i-Light is suitable for female facial use only below the cheekbone when used with the facial
treatment head.
Q. How do I care for treated areas following treatment?
A. Avoid unprotected sun exposure to the treated areas.
Q. Should I suspend normal activity after using i-Light?
A. There is no need to suspend normal activity following treatment assuming no abnormal complications
occur. It is recommended that you perform the treatment prior to going to bed so that any resulting
redness fades by morning.
Q. Is i-Light dangerous for the skin after long term use?
A. There have not been any reported side effects or skin damage from long term use of intense
pulse light.
