Benefits and Risks
A medically-supervised clinical study
showed that the i-Light® Pro IPL system
was effective in the removal of unwanted
hair when used as directed.
60 participants entered the clinical trial
with the i-Light® Pro and treated 3 times
over a 4 week period. Treatments were
performed on underarms, legs, bikini area,
stomach, chest and arms. Hair counts were
performed on site before treatment and
again 3 and 6 months after the final treat-
ment. Any side effects observed or reported
were documented by medical personnel.
This study showed the benefits and risks of
hair removal with the i-Light® Pro system.
The following sites are contraindicated and
were therefore excluded from treatment:
face, head, ears, neck, nipple, genitalia,
anus, eyes, eyebrows or eye lashes.
Benefits
When used as directed, i-Light® Pro
IPL system helps remove unwanted hair
without the need for daily shaving, wax-

just three treatments, participants show

hair 6-months after last treatment

Actual results vary from person to per-
son, depend on the body area being
treated, and whether instructions were
followed correctly.
