The Benefits of LED Therapy

What the Research Says:
The depth of each wavelength adopted in LED therapy (blue, red, and near-infrared) has differing primary targets and photoreactions in the target cells through photon absorption, intracellular signal transduction and finally the cellular photo-response. Visible wavelengths stimulate cellular metabolism by triggering intracellular photobiochemical reactions. The observed effects include increased ATP, an organic chemical that provides energy, modulation of reactive oxidative species (ROS), alteration of collagen synthesis, stimulation of angiogenesis, and increased blood flow. Research also demonstrated the increase in the production of multiple growth factors and the inhibition of apoptosis or “cell death”. All studies have demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in skin rejuvenation, as well as enhancing existing rejuvenation treatments (3,4) Clinical studies in the use of red LED (630-700nm) on human and animal tissue, have demonstrated it activates fibroblast growth factors, increasing type 1 procollagen, an increase in Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and a decrease in MMP-1. (2). These result in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, improvement in photo-aging, a decrease in melanin, and softer, smoother healthier-looking skin. Skin analysis studies reveal an increased collagen density in the papillary and upper reticular dermis with the collagen bundles more packed and well organized. The thickness was observed to be greater than when evaluated before the red LED treatment.

 

Anti-Aging Treatment with LED Light Therapy:
Now that we've established a base understanding of why collagen is essential as we age, let's look at the most groundbreaking and natural way to effectively generate more collagen in your body using the anti-aging effect of LED light therapy. Proven by research, the red and near-infrared wavelengths utilized in the Celluma SERIES of LED light therapy devices combat the signs of aging. These specific wavelengths of light energy are clinically verified to enhance your body's natural ability to generate collagen and elastin by activating the fibroblast cells. No prescriptions. No medications. No injections. No surgery. Just safe, natural wavelengths of effective, proven light energy.

Boost Collagen Production Cells:
Let’s quickly run through two biology basics: the Krebs Cycle and Adenosine
Triphosphate (ATP). 
 

1. The Krebs cycle is what generates cellular energy inside your body. Light activation boosts the body’s natural Krebs Cycle which in turn assists in creating more ATP.

2. ATP is the energy currency of all the cells in your body. When your body has sufficient ATP levels, then it has more energy to spend on restorative processes such as collagen and elastin production – these are the proteins your body uses to heal itself.

In summary: Light Therapy = Enhanced Krebs (energy) Cycle = Greater ATP Availability = More Collagen

When all of those important metabolic events are happening, it then results in
greater outcomes beyond just collagen production. We see a cascade of benefits
such as:
• Cell generation to replace old cells (mitosis)
• Reduction and prevention of cell death (apoptosis)
• Neurogenesis (new neurons)
• Development of new capillaries (angiogenesis)
• Increased blood flow
• Enhanced Nitric Oxide production

The synergistic effect is that your body is optimized to heal itself. Skin rejuvenates and wrinkles are reduced.

The Hydra-Cloud Facial Treatment

The Hydra-Cloud treatment soothes, desensitizes, and deeply hydrates to smooth wrinkles and de-age using Hyaluronic Acid, Marine Collagen, and other state-of-the-art ingredients. Its unique formula is recommended for all skin types, including mature, sensitive, peri-menopausal, and menopausal, dry, and dehydrated skin. It is also suitable as a supportive treatment for Rosacea.

 

Ultrasound waves work to help infuse the highest blend of hyaluronic acid marine collagen available deep in the layers of the skin, creating optimal visual results. The treatment is uniquely formulated to counteract the signs of aging and sun damage to quickly rid your skin of environmental pollutants and toxins while deeply hydrating the skin. The skin is left naturally soft, fluffy, and cool, while at the same time tightening, firming, and reducing fine

lines and wrinkles.

Dermaplaning​

A steady and meticulous attention to detail is essential when choosing this exfoliation treatment. Your facial texture will be instantly enhanced, unveiling a smoother complexion without any downtime or recovery. It's an excellent physical exfoliation for all skin types (except for those that have active acne).

​

This treatment removes excess surface skin cells revealing a brighter complexion through the removal of dull superficial keratinized cells that block the absorption of products and nutrients, and removes “peach fuzz”.

 

The home regimen maintenance products and home care are a must! Being vigilant is a must with sun protection. An SPF, and if it is sunny, hide your face in the shade, covered by a hat, and keep the body temperature

cool.
