, Helpful tips for treating facial hair
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 device on your skin' for details (fig. 7).
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 certain 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.
TREATMENT TIPS
C
• For best results, avoid overlapping flashes. This helps prevent exposure to more energy than is
necessary to suppress hair growth. It also ensures that you get the maximum use of the light cartridge.
• For the most effective results, always use the highest intensity level that does not cause discomfort on
the skin. The level you use should feel warm on your skin, but should never cause discomfort.
• 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.
POST-TREATMENT CARE
C
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 handle the treated area roughly.
• Do not take hot baths, showers, or use steam rooms and saunas for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not swim for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not take part in contact sports for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not wear tight-fitting clothing over the treated area.
• Do not depilate (waxing, plucking, threading or creams) during the treatment – shaving is
acceptable as long as you avoid shaving 24 hours after each treatment.
• Do not use bleaching creams or perfumed products for 24 hours after treatment.
• Do not scratch or pick at the treated area.
