If your skin blisters or burns, STOP USE IMMEDIATELY!
10.3. What to expect when treating with Infini’Silk™?
For many people, using Infini’Silk™ may be their first experience with a light-based device designed for home
use. Infini’Silk™ is simple to use, and hair removal sessions go by quickly. During a Infini’Silk™ session it is
normal to experience and feel:
A Flash of Light –
The bright light of Infini’Silk™ will not harm the eyes when applied to non-facial sites, and
special eye-protection is not needed when using Infini’Silk™.
A Fan Noise –
The cooling fan in Infini’Silk™ sounds similar to a hairdryer. This is normal.
A Pop Sound with Each Pulse –
When a pulse of light is activated, it is normal to hear a subtle pop sound
simultaneously with the flash of light.
Moderate Pressure of the Treatment area –
This is necessary and helpful for placement of adjacent pulses
of light, and is part of the unique safety features of Infini’Silk™.
A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling –
During each pulse of light, it is normal to feel a mild sensation of
warmth and tingling from the light energy. Remember it is important to always use low energy settings for
initial hair removal sessions. You may feel some warmth for up to an hour after your Infini’Silk™ session.
Some Mild Red or Pink Color –
During and just after your Infini’Silk™ session it is not uncommon to see
some very mild, pink-like color of the skin. This is usually most noticeable around the hairs themselves.
However if you see full redness of the skin, blistering or burns, stop use of Infini’Silk™ immediately.

Alternatively, if you choose the Gliding method, hold the PULSE TRIGGER down continuously, and
slide the device smoothly along the treated area.
Please note that this method is best applied when working with low energy pulses. This way, the
device takes only 1-1.5 seconds to recharge between.
In both methods of treatment you are cautioned not to treat the same area of skin more than once
per hair removal session! Treating the same area of skin more than once per session increases the
likelihood of adverse effects.
Gliding should be applied while holding the PULSE TRIGGER down continuously, and using a
light sliding motion, smoothly moving the device along the treated area. The treatment is then
administered quickly and more efficiently. Even though Gliding is usually done using low energy
pulses for fast recharge, it is still essential to control skin coverage and avoid double treatments.
When applied to the skin, the Infini’Silk™ TREATMENT SURFACE is designed to create temporary
pressure marks on the treated area. These visible marks can be used for proper positioning of the
device for treatment sessions.
