What to Expect During and After a Remington

During Treatment

For many people, using the Remington
iLIGHT Ultra Face & Body Hair Removal
System is their first experience with a
light-based device. Here are some things
to expect during treatment:
• A Flash of Light: The flash of light that
you see is only part of the light pro-
duced by the device. The Remington
iLIGHT Ultra Face & Body Contact
Sensors help ensure that most of
the light is directed into the skin. The
remaining visible light should not be
harmful to the eyes, and special eye
protection is not needed as long as
you follow the directions for using the
device in this manual. The Remington
iLIGHT Ultra Face & Body device
should NOT be used on the eyes, eye-
lashes or eyebrows.
• A Sensation of Warmth and Tingling:
It is normal to feel a warm and tin-
gling sensation with each flash. Many
people describe this sensation to be
like a rubber band lightly snapped
iLIGHT Ultra Face & Body Treatment

against the skin. However, sensations
vary by person and treatment area. If
the sensation is too intense or pain-
ful, stop using the device and contact
Customer Service before using again.
See page 48.

Immediately After the First Treatment

• Visible changes to the hair are unlikely
at this point. During and just after your
Remington iLIGHT Ultra Face & Body
session, it is not uncommon to see
some very mild redness, mostly around
the hairs themselves. This is normal and
typically clears up within a few hours.
If the redness does not go away within
3 days, contact Customer Service. See
page 48.
• If you have redness, blistering or other
skin irritation in the treatment area, DO
NOT perform treatment. Wait until the
skin returns to normal before using the
device again. If the irritation does not
go away with 3 days, contact Customer
Service. See page 48.
