A typical full hair growth cycle may take 18-24 months. During this time multiple Infini’Silk™ sessions may be
required in order to achieve permanent results.
The efficiency of hair removal varies from person to person according to body area, hair color, and how
Silk’n Infini’Silk™ is used.
Typical Silk’n Infini’Silk™ hair removal plan during a full hair growth cycle:
Treatments 1-4 – plan two weeks apart
Treatments 5-7 – plan four weeks apart
Treatments 8 + – treat as needed, until desired results are achieved.

Usually discoloration or changes to skin pigment are temporary and hyperpigmentation or
hypopigmentation rarely occur.
ֿ
Excessive Redness and Swelling
In rare cases, treated skin may become very red and swollen. This is more common in sensitive areas of
the body. The redness and swelling should subside within 2 to 7 days and should be treated with frequent
applications of ice. Gentle cleansing is OK, but one should avoid exposure to sun.
Infection
Infection of the skin is exceedingly rare but is still a possible risk following a skin burn or wound caused
by Infini’Silk™.
Bruising
Very rarely, use of Infini’Silk™ may cause blue-purple bruising that can last 5 to 10 days. As the bruising
fades, there may be a rust-brown discoloration of the skin (hyperpigmentation).
