LED LIGHT THERAPY

HOW DOES LED LIGHT THERAPY WORK?

 

LED Light Therapy, originally developed by NASA, is a medical grade system that uses clinically proven multi-wavelength LED lights and infrared. These wavelengths penetrate the dermis  and stimulate increased cellular function. Just as plants absorb and convert sunlight into cellular building blocks, skin absorbs therapeutic LED light and uses it as a source of energy to stimulate cellular regeneration.

​

THE SCIENCE BEHIND LED LIGHT THERAPY

​

  • Light is a form of energy called photons

​

  • Cells absorb photons and transform their energy into adenosine triphosphatee (ATP), the form of energy that cells use to carry out normal functions

​

  • The resulting ATP is then used to

    • Power metabolic processes

    • synthesize DNA, RNA, proteins, enzymes, and other products needed to repair or regenerate cell components

    • Foster mitosis or cell proliferation

    • Restore homeostasis

Collagen provides a support like scaffolding which holds up or "plumps" the skin and elastin gives it elasticity or spring. Skin and body tissue have the ability to absorb light as a source of energy to stimulate cellular regeneration. LED light therapy is used by astronauts, athletes, and navy SEAL's to maintain health, sustain normal cell growth, prevent bone and muscle loss, to boost body’s ability to heal wounds.

 

LightStim uses five wavelengths simultaniously. Blue 465nm, Amber 605nm, Light Red 630nm, Dark Red 660nm, and infrared 855nm.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF LED LIGHT THERAPY?

​

​

  • Up to 200% increase in collagen production and re-tightening of the elastin layer

 

  • Reversal of photo-aging & pigment issues

 

  • Reduction in fine lines and wrinkles

 

  • Improves redness from rosacea

 

  • Kills bacteria that causes acne

 

  • Reduces inflammation and redness

​

  • Reduces pore size

​​

  • Detoxifies waste and free radicals

 

  • Increases circulation

​​

 

  • Gives skin a natural glow

 

  • Promotes better product absorption

 

  • Completely painless with no side effects

 

 

WHAT IS THE TREATMENT LIKE?

 

LED light therapy offers huge benefits to the skin but feels more like relaxing under the warm sun, and less like a clinical treatment. Every treatment includes a double cleanse, skin specific mask, and steamed towels. The LightStim LED panel is then positioned 1-2" above the skin for 20 minutes. LED light therapy can be done alone or added to the end of any other treatment for added anti-aging, anti-inflammatory, and healing results. 

 

​

HOW MANY TREATMENTS ARE NEEDED TO SEE RESULTS?

 

This depends on age, skin condition, sun exposure, lifestyle and health. Visible changes such as glowing skin, less inflammation, and soothed acne may be noticed immediately, but usually within the first 3 days after treatment. Results are cumulative and optimal results come from multiple treatments scheduled in a series. We recommend 1-2 treatments per week for 6-8 weeks. The skin continues to improve over 2-3 months as it takes this amount of time for collagen to remodel.
