WHAT IS RED/BLUE LIGHT THERAPY?
Light therapy, or phototherapy, consists of exposure to specific wavelengths of light using polychromatic polarized light administered for prescribed amount of time. In fact, the technology was developed by NASA and has been shown to help improve healing in burns, diabetic ulcers, and wounds. Light therapy emits wavelengths that reach the deepest layer of the skin. The beauty is that it does not affect the surrounding tissues as the light targets hemoglobin to convert energy to remodel collagen.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING THE RED/BLUE LIGHT THERAPY TREATMENT?
This treatment is designed to help you relax. Our esthetician will begin cleansing the skin with a gentle cleanser. Next, a purifying peel composed of fruit acids is applied and gently massaged into the skin. The treatment is commenced by dividing the face into three sections for treatment. First, the Blue light device is then applied to the skin with light pressure in circular motions for about three minutes for each section of the face. You will feel slight heat during treatment. The same protocol is then used for the Red light application. The treatment is very relaxing and feels like a warm massage. The massage oil is then removed with a warm towel. A collagen sheet mask is then applied for 10 minutes. The mask is then removed and moisturizer is then applied along with sunscreen.
