, What to expect from i-Light
Most users will begin to notice fewer hairs a few weeks after beginning treatment. However, it’s important
to continue with the full treatment regimen to ensure that every active hair is treated. A full treatment
regimen is every 2 weeks for three treatments (body sites) and four treatments (female facial sites), then only
as needed.
A few days after the first treatment you may start to notice hair has fallen out. Some hair growth will occur
that is less dense, finer and lighter in colour than the original hair. This regrowth is perfectly normal and
should be expected.
