GETTING ACQUAINTED WITH i-LIGHT® SMOOTH SENSE
What is i-LIGHT®?
The i-LIGHT® Smooth Sense system is a revolutionary light-based device designed for the
removal of unwanted body hair and female facial hair at home.
i-LIGHT® Smooth Sense 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® Smooth Sense work?
IPL - (Intense Pulsed Light) is a well-established technology
used worldwide for over 15 years. i-LIGHT ® uses this
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) very dark brown/black skin, you should
only use i-LIGHT® on light to dark skin tones (I-V). Consult the
skin tone chart on page 2 to ensure this device is right for you.
What to expect from i-LIGHT® Smooth Sense
Results aren’t immediate, and individual results vary. 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).
