LED Light Facials

As a holistic skin therapist, I am always looking for modalities and products that help your body, skin, and face work at its optimal level in producing collagen and elastin.

This is why I chose my new piece of equipment.

The LED Light combined with the radio frequency help to firm up tissue.

Deep relaxation helps alleviate the stress of our modern world. Which in turn, helps to slow down the aging process.

Low grade everyday stress does cause the body to produce a stress hormone called cortisol. The body produces this as a natural response to stress.

Unfortunately, elevated levels of cortisol can cause aging of the skin such as fine lines and reduced immunity in the skin.

Not only am I using this modality, I also have created a very relaxing facial. Check out the video below to see what I have created for all of you.

I love creating new facials to keep your skin looking fresh and your cortisol levels low.

What is LED Light Therapy?

I use a skin safe, professional grade LED that also does radio frequency and ultrasound.

This low level light uses different colors and wavelengths to enter the skin at different depths.

Benefits of LED Light Therapy:

  • Eases fine lines

  • Makes the skin softer

  • Stimulates skin cells called fibroblasts which help make collagen

  • Collagen is important for healing wounds and keeps our skin bouncy and youthful looking

  • Eases inflammation and redness

  • Helps with acne

  • Can help with pigmentation

It does what? 5 Answers to why your friend who gets micro-current looks younger than you.

You see your friend on zoom and she looks 5 years younger.

What is she doing to make her skin look so youthful?

Its not just the BOTOX!

Its the wonders of getting regular MICRO-CURRENT facials.

The paradox of botox is that it causes atrophy of muscles at injection sites.

So, micro-current is essential for botox users to keep the paralyzed muscles lifted and high, not slack.

It sends signals to the muscles to keep them from forgetting how to work and eliminates the potential possibility of drooping that can happen from the use of botox.

What is micro-current?

A FDA approved treatment where your esthetician places two wands on your skin that creates a gentle electrical current. This current is so gentle, it wouldn’t even power a light bulb. It does not contract the facial muscles; but, creates more of a tightening.

Dermascope describes Micro-current as “micro-sized pulsating current at an ampere 1 millionth of an amp to resonate with the body’s own bio electrical exchanges that take place on a cellular level.”

What are the benefits?

  1. Firms and tones the skin without knives.

  2. Enhances definition eye brows and cheekbones

  3. Reduces scars by smoothing connective tissue

  4. Stimulates facial muscles preventing sagging

  5. Flattens baggy eyes

  6. Deters future signs of aging

  7. Doubles muscle fibers

  8. Increases collagen by 45%

  9. Fortifies moisture content

  10. Helps skin generate new skin cells

  11. Oxygenates cells

  12. Virtually painless

How often should I get a Micro-current facial?

One visit per month can revitalize the skin slowing down the aging process.

How long has micro-current been around?

Decades! In the 70s physical therapists used micro-current for treating facial paralysis like Bell’s Palsy.

What are the physiological effects of micro-current?

It creates a lifting and contouring effect by re-educating the muscles of the face.

Micro-current creates a chemical reaction to release ATP at the cellular level. This cellular stimulation is what helps new production of collagen and hydration at the dermal level.

Micro-current is similar to a homeopathic method by working with your body’s own electrical impulses making it a gentle but highly effective treatment.

As always,

Live in Beauty.
