Hair Growth Cycle
Hair follicles typically pass through three phases throughout the hair growth cycle. These phases are:
i-LIGHT
®
PRO+ Face & Body uses intense pulses of light (IPL) to gently heat up and disable hair follicles beneath the skin. This results
in the hair follicle shedding naturally and regrowth being prevented, leaving you with soft, smooth skin.
How Does It Work?
Use i-LIGHT

PRO+ Face
& Body on shaved skin
every 2 weeks for the rst
3 treatments
Hair will shed naturally
between treatments
Anagen Phase (growing phase) –
the active growth phase of the hair
follicles. Melanin concentration is
at its highest as it is responsible
for pigmentation of the hair. Only
hairs in the anagen phase are
susceptible to treatment with IPL.
Catagen Phase (degradation
phase) – this is a short transition
stage, which follows the anagen
phase and signals the end of ac-
tive growth of hair. It typically lasts
2-3 weeks.
Telogen Phase (resting phase) – the
hair follicle is completely at rest
during this phase, which is the lon-
gest phase and lasts about 100 days.
During this time, the new hairs push
out the old hairs, allowing the growth
cycle to begin again.
As hairs are at different stages of the hair growth cycle during treatments, some hairs may grow back even though you have treated the area frequently,
hair growth may also vary across different body areas. Repeat treatments with i-LIGHT
