When N ot To Use/ When To Avoid Us ing i- Ligh t

• DO NOT use if you have tanned skin in the intended treatment area, as your skin

may be too dark and treatment in tanned areas could temporarily cause skin swelling, blisters, or could change the colour of your skin. Wait until your tan has faded before treating.

• DO NOT use on skin with cosmetics applied, as treating in those areas could temporari-

ly cause skin swelling, blisters or could change the colour of your skin. Make sure to thoroughly clean the intended treatment area prior to use.

• DO NOT flash the same treatment spot multiple times during the same session, as this

could temporarily cause skin swelling, blisters, or could change the colour of your skin.

• DO NOT treat any area more than once every two weeks, as this will not speed up

results, but could increase likelihood of skin swelling, blistering or changes to the colour of your skin.

• DO NOT use on damaged skin, including open wounds, cold sores, sunburns, or areas

where you have had a skin peel or other skin resurfacing procedure within the last 6- 8 weeks.

• DO NOT use on irritated skin, including rashes or swollen skin. These conditions can

make the skin more sensitive. Wait for the af fected area to heal before use.

• DO NOT use if your skin is sensitive to light. In order to determine if you can use

i-LIGHT

, perform a test on a small patch of skin and wait 24 hours to determine if there

are any adverse reactions before treating more broadly.

• DO NOT use if you are or may be pregnant or are breast-feeding. i- LIGHT® has not

been tested on pregnant women. Hormonal changes are common during pregnancy and breast feeding and could increase skin sensitivity and the risk of skin injury.

• DO NOT flash against any material other than skin.

• DO NOT use i-LIGHT

• DO NOT treat any area where you may someday want your hair to grow back. The

results may be permanent and irreversible.

• DO NOT use on the face if you have a history of cold sores; use of IPL or any treatment

that irritates skin can cause a recurrence of cold sores.

Page 7

CAUTION: Avoid treating areas that contain only vellus hairs (very thin, fine hair known as “peach fuzz”) as this may result in undesired hair re -growth.

• If you’ve had professional or clinical or self-administered laser or IPL or electrolysis

hair removal treatments, wait at least 6 months before using i-LIGHT plucked or epilated hair in the treatment area, wait at least 6 weeks before using i-LIGHT® . The device uses the hair under your skin to disable your hair at the root, so it is not effective if the hair has been pulled out.

• DO NOT use directly over or near Active Implantable Medical Devices such as

implantable pacemakers, internal defibrillators, or insulin devices. Although no problems associated with the use of this device have been reported during clinical studies, it is recommended to observe all active implantable medical device warnings regarding the use of electronic devices to prevent any failure or interruption of an active implantable device.

What is i-LIGHT®?

The i-LIGHT® PRO+ Face & Body system is a revolutionary light-based device designed for the removal of unwanted body hair and female facial hair at ho me.

i-LIGHT

PRO+ Face & Body utilises similar clinically-proven technology that professional

dermatologists and salons use, optimised for personal treatment.

What is Intense Pulse Light (IPL) and how does i-LIGHT® PRO+ Face & Body work?

IPL - (Intense Pulsed Light) is a well-established technology used worldwide for over 15 years. i-LIGHT technology to flash your skin with an intense pulse of light. The pulse works under the skin’s surface to target hairs at the root, disabling the hair follicle and hair regrowth (Fig 1).

The energy in the pulse of light targets dark colouring, and best results are seen on darker hair. To avoid targeting (and possibly damaging) dark skin, you should only use i-LIGHT on light to medium skin tones (I- IV). Consult the skin tone chart on page 2 to ensure this device is right for you.

What to expect from i-LIGHT® PRO+ Face & Body

Results aren’t immediate, and individual results var y. Most users will begin to notice fewer hairs within 1-2 weeks after beginning treatment. During this time it may look like the hair is still growing, but it is actually being ‘pushed out’ (Fig 2).

Active Growth

in the active growth phase are susceptible to treatment, which is why multiple treatments are required for optimal results (Fig 3).

Fig 3

Anagen Phase Catagen Phase Telogen Phase

It’s important to continue with the full treatment regime and top -up treatments to ensure that ever y active hair is treated.

TREATMENT REGIME

A full treatment regime is once every two weeks for three treatments. Individual results may vary, so multiple treatments may be required for optimal results. 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. After completing the initial treatment regime, top- up treatments will provide even better results. Continuous regular bi -weekly use will give good results within 6-12 weeks (darker skin tones may take longer).

NOTE: You should avoid treating the same area multiple times in one session, as it will not improve efficacy but increases the risk of skin irritation.

will switch on.

• If your skin is unsuitable, you will hear a ‘buzz’ and the

i-LIGHT

will remain switched on.

NOTE: You must use the skin sensor on each body part you wish to treat.

Prepare Your Skin For Treatment

• Ensure the area to be treated is clean and free from oils, deodorants, perfume, make

up, lotions and creams. Shave the hair from the area to be treated, and ensure the skin is clean and dry.

• For facial use, you may prefer to trim the hair. If trimming; the hair must be trimmed to

less than 0.5mm.

How To Treat

1. Place the Flash Window firmly against the skin - ensure the Skin Contact Sensors are fully engaged

NOTE: When the Skin Contact Sensors are fully engaged you will hear a ‘chirp’ and the Bulb Status Indicator Display will illuminate green.

2. Press the flash button to deliver a flash. You should expect to see a bright flash of light (similar to a camera flash), and you should feel a mild sensation of warmth.

3. Move to the next area and treat in a grid like pat tern to ensure full coverage of the treatment area.

• For Single -Flash Mode, press the Flash Button each time you move to the next area.

Page 18

• For Multi-Flash Mode, keep your finger on the Flash Button to keep it depressed and

glide to the next area being sure to keep the Skin Contact Sensors fully engaged. The next flash will be delivered automatically after 3 seconds.

NOTE: During Multi- Flash Mode if you let go of the Flash Button or lose skin contact, simply resume treatment by repeating the above steps.

IMPOR TAN T: The Facial Attachment Cap has been specifically designed to treat the unique characteristics of female facial hair. We would therefore advise against using the Body Attachment Cap on the face as this has been designed to treat larger areas below the neck.

• The Facial Attachment Cap is only intended for use on female facial

hair on the cheeks, sideburns, chin, neck area and above the lips (Fig 17). It can also be used on other smaller areas such as the underarms and bikini area.

• DO NOT use on male beards or facial hair as the results may be permanent or uneven

which may produce changes in facial hair characteristics which may not be desirable.

• The Facial Attachment is only intended for use on female facial hair below the

cheekbone (Fig 17).

• DO NOT use on male beards or facial hair as the results may be permanent or uneven

which may produce changes in facial hair characteristics which may not be desirable.

TREATMENT TIPS

Body Treatment

• For best results, avoid overlapping flashes. This helps prevent exposure to more energy

than is necessar y to suppress hair growth. It also ensures that you get the maximum use of the bulb.

• For the most effective results, always use the highest intensit y level that does not cause

discomfort on the skin. The level you use should feel warm on your skin, but should never cause discomfort.

Page 19

• You may notice that bony areas, such as elbows, shins and ankles, are more sensitive

during treatment.

• This is normal and should not be cause for alarm. To avoid this sensitivity, try stretching

the skin away from the bony area during treatment.

Facial Treatment

• Test on a patch of skin - since facial skin tends to be more sensitive, make sure you test

on a small patch before proceeding. See section ‘Test The i- LIGHT On Your Skin’ for more details.

• Use a mirror to guide your treatments - using a mirror for a good view of the area to

be treated and to help ensure you avoid treating the lips or any other dark spots. If the reflected light is unpleasant, you may want to close your eyes before each flash.

• Stretch skin for better skin contact - the contours of the skin may make it difficult for the

skin contact sensors to be fully depressed in cer tain areas. You may find it easier to try and wrap your upper lip over your teeth or use your tongue to stretch your cheeks for better skin contact.

PRO+ Face & Body

POST-TREATMENT CARE

After treatment, you may experience slight redness or a warm sensation on your skin. This is normal and will disappear quickly. To avoid irritation to your skin after a treatment, take the following precautions:

• Avoid sun exposure for 24 hours after a treatment. Protect the skin with SPF 30 for 2

weeks after each treatment.

• DO NOT prolong sun exposure such as sunbathing, using a tanning bed, or self-tan for

at least 2 weeks after the last treatment.

• After treatment, keep the area clean and dry and drink plenty of water to keep skin hydrated.

• DO NOT take hot baths, showers, or use steam rooms and saunas for 24 hours after

treatment.

Page 20

• DO NOT take part in contact sports for 24 hours after treatment.
