Advanced LED Photopulsation by Revitalight

Posted on 02. Nov, 2009 by Natalie in Facials, Skin care

Unique Verve is now offering Advanced LED Photofacial by Revitalight. Revitalight is FDA cleared that delivers pure, non-laser, light which is safer than daylight because there is no harmful UV. LED Light therapy is non-invasive with no recovery time, doesn’t generate heat, it will not burn your skin. 

Advanced LED light technology skin care treatments were developed by dermatologist for skin care professionals that can painlessly and without any discomfort…

• improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, rosacea, broken capillaries
• help your skin appear more radiant, plump and smooth
• help tighten unsightly poores
• help reduce Acne

40 years of independent research have shown that Light Therapy has powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue. In the 1960’s in Europe it was noted that certain single wavelenghts had excellent therapeutic effect on tissues through a process called photo-stimulation. LED anti-aging technology was uncovered when US space program research examined the effect of gravity on cellular activity. Human cells need gravity to stimulate cell growth. LED-technology developed for NASA experiments in space show promise for delivering light deep into tissues of the body to promote wound healing and human tissue growth. LED enhances cellular growth.

Unlike laser technology that relies on high-powered coherent light to create heat energy which may result in harmful side effects, LED  Photopulsation triggers the body to convert light energy into cell energy without thermal injury to the tissue. This stimulates collagen production and regenerates ageing or sun damaged skin. LEDs, Light Emitting Diodes, are unique in their ability to produce the same specific light frequencies as lasers without damaging tissue. LEDs produce a diffuse and uniform light that penetrates more deeply than laser light.

Red LED Pulse Light Therapy – for the treatment of Rosacea, Anti-aging, Hyperpigmentation and Sun Damage, also prolongs effects of other treatments – Botox and collagen fillers by working in harmony to naturally lift and tone the skin.

The recommended frequency of red LED light treatmnets is one (age and life style dependant) treatment every 7 to 10 days for 6 weeks. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 4-8 weeks.

General studies have shown Red LED light to:

• increase circulation
• convert light energy into cell energy
• stimulate the production of collagen
• helps to heal wounds and repair skin damage
• useful in skin rejuvenation
• stimulates human tissue just below the skin’s surface
• stimulates proteoglycans and fibroblastic activity (that produce collagen and elastin)
• increases lymphatic system activity

Blue LED light therapy has been FDA cleared for the treatment of acne.  To treat acne it is recommended to get 3 sessions per week for the first 2 weeks. Then the treatments are cut back to 2 per week for 4 more weeks. Maintenance treatments are recommended every 4-6 weeks. Professional exfoliation and Revitalight is an excellent combination and can accelerate the desired results.

As with any skin care procedure, clients need to be aware that there are no quick fixes or “miracle cures” with the Revitalight. LED light therapy has an cummulative effect, hence serious of 6 treatments (age and life style dependant) are recommended to see desired results. The long-term effectiveness of this or any other skin care treatment is only as good as the client’s adherence to a consistent home care program and lifestyle that are in keeeping with the desired results. Home care is incredibly important with LED and other therapies and facials. What client does to her/his face  24/7 greatly influences results.
