Remington iLIGHT Pro Hair Removal System

Before getting the iLight Pro, 6years ago, I had tons of coarse thick black hair on my legs, bikini line and under arms. I also couldn't go more then one day without shaving and even then it was never a smooth shave. It was horrible! I felt like a man and the in grown hairs were so painful. After only a few months of using the iLight Pro I was already seeing a big difference. Now I have huge bald spots that doesn't grow hair anymore and the hair that is still there is thinner and grows back slower. Now I will say, if you don't keep using the laser eventually it will all grow back and thicken but you don't have to use it as much as in the beginning. Now instead of using my machine twice a month I use it once every other month, sometimes more in the summer.

This product works but you have to be patient. I used it once a week after shaving and it took about 3 months to really start noticing results and I continued to used it for a total of 5 months. It's now been a year since I initially started using it and my hair now grows back in patches (some areas are completely bald and have not grown back since). The areas that do grow back have become much thinner, almost like baby hair. I'm going to get back to using it again to rid those extra hairs. The key is to stay on a regular schedule and be patient with results. I would definitely recommend this product.

I really love this product. It really does work! I no longer have to shave or bleach my hair every day like i used to.

I was asked to review this product but I have only had it 2 weeks. I have used it 1x per the instuctions & have to wait 2 weeks to use it again. It will take several months for one to notice a change in hair growth per instructions. So it is hard to rate at this point in my ownership. It is easy to use, seems to be made well & for the the one time I used it performed well. If it does what it says it does I would say this is well worth the $$ in my book. I will know in a few more months:)

I bought this product a year ago and I used it once a month. (Now I use it more often because it is summer- no, I do not sunbathe because my skin should not get tanned if I want to achieve an effective hair-loss). I have to admit my hair did not fall out (:D), as I first anticipated, but the quantity has decreased and there are places where it does not grow back. It is a little painful at the bikini area or at the knees where bones are near but it is manageable. SO I can recommend it.

Great product, but no one is selling the cartridge replacement. Absolutely can't find it anywhere online.

I got my laser as a Christmas present (2014). I have used it as directed, every two weeks for the first 3 times, in my bikini line. I didn't see good results so I used it every 2 weeks for a total of 3 more sessions and the hair was almost all gone, or so I thought, after 2 1/2 weeks the hair came back, thinner but almost everywhere, so I just started again. I decided to start with my arms (after the 4th bikini treatment) an the cartridge had to be replaced half way on my second treatment. I ordered a new one but that one only lasted to both my arms and lower legs and only a small area on one of my thighs (I'm a petite woman, 5.3 inches and 109 lb). I'm disapointed with the small amount of pulses you get from the cartridge, specially if you have to use the machine more than three consecutive sessions and the results don't last even for a month! I am fair skin and have very dark hair, at a professional salon where I had my underarms treated, three treatments were enough to have no hairs for seven years so far! I will give the machine a try for the reminding two sesions on my legs and see what happens after, but I'm not very optimistic! I do recommend the machine if you have the time to treat yourself every two weeks but not if you think that you will go for six months without hair as advertised.

I received this product as a Christmas gift. I am a perfect candidate for this type of product as my skin is fair while my hair is dark. The good: The "pain" factor is minimal. I used my unit at full strength as my pain tolerance is quite high and my hair is a bit "resistant." For those wondering...the sensation is somewhat like being lightly snapped with a rubber band. Occasionally, there is a hot sensation as well. I would encourage full compliance with shaving before use. Shaving makes it a more comfortable process and you avoid the burning hair smell. The bad: The down side of this product is HUGE. The light cartridges do not come close to the "expected" usage as claimed by Remington. I wonder what sort of quality control metrics they used to obtain the numbers because I can assure you that they are not even close to accurate! How do I know exactly? Knowing the numerous consumer complaints, I actually COUNTED the pulses. (Also, it should be mentioned that I let the unit "cool" during use and was sure not to block air flow.) Cartridge 1: 361 pulses before failure. Cartridge 2: 408 pulses before failure. Cartridge 3: 329 pulses before failure. Total of 1098 pulses for 3 light cartridges! That is LESS than what Remington tells consumers to expect from a single cartridge. A complete misrepresentation of the life cycle of their product. This is a real disappointment. I believe this product could be quite good if the lights lasted anywhere near what the company claims. Either that or they should be sold in multi-packs at a substantial price reduction. I got about 25% of what I paid for.

Been using it as directed for 2 months and it has made no difference.

i invested in this product thinking i will get rid of going to salon as it was difficult for me to manage an appointment because of kids. Although the product claims awesome results after one treatment, mine is not showing any improvement even after 4 treatments. My first go with this product was amazing, i was super excited and used it all over legs n arms, keept changing light intensity according to my comfort level as per the instructions. Noticed some buring smell which i ignored that day. Waited for 2 weeks before my second go, and the nightmare started. I was not able to tolerate the first level of light intensity. Iglt had kind of burned me inside or something. I did only my legs and it was pretty uncomfortable. Then i spaced it with 3 weeks gap to do legs n arms And it was uncomfortable again. Bad smell too. And there was something brown/ black thing appearing on the mirror which i noticed first time too but it was increasing. The mirror or lens was in pretty bad shape uptil now. Tried to wipe it off but it was not cleaning, mild washing didnt help either. I am pretty disappointed. It has worked only in patches as shown in the photo.
