What is red light therapy?

 

(RLT) is a treatment that uses low levels of red light to improve your skins appearance. 

E.g. skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, scarring, redness, & acne. 

 

How does red light therapy work? 

 

There are certain cells in the body that absorb light wavelengths, and are stimulated to work. With more energy, other cells can do their work more efficiently, such as repairing the skin, boosting new cell growth, & enhancing skin rejuvenation. 

How red light therapy works in skin health: 

- Stimulates collagen production, which gives the skin its structure, strength, and elasticity. 

- Increases fibroblast production, which makes collagen. (Collagen is a components of connective tissue that builds skin. 

- Increases blood circulation & lymphatic flow by increasing cellular energy potentially opening up lymphatic vessels. 

- Reduces inflammation in cells by promoting drainage. 

 

Is red light therapy safe?

​

Red light therapy isn’t associated with any side effects if used as directed. This therapy isn’t toxic, not invasive, and not as harsh as some topical skin treatments. Unlike the cancer-causing ultraviolet light, RLT doesn’t use this type of light.

Laser Lipo & Red Light Therapy 

 

Red light therapy and laser lipo are both non-invasive procedures that can reduce the appearance of a double chin. Red light therapy uses light wavelengths to target fat cells, while laser lipo targets fat cells directly.

 

Laser lipo 

 

• A type of non invasive low level laser to stimulate fat cells, causing to release triglycerides & other fatty 

  substances

• Can be an effective treatment for stubborn fat under the chin

• Most patients experience only mild side effects, such as temporary redness or swelling

​

Safety considerations 

​

• Prolonged or high-intensity exposure to red light therapy outside of treatment guidelines may damage the skin

• Home use products may cause burns, blisters, or damage to unprotected eyes

 

Laser lipo, is a minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to reduce fat under the chin. It can improve the appearance of the jawline, neck, and lower face. 

 

How it works 

 

• Laser energy breaks down fat cells

• The body absorbs the melted fat 

• The laser's heat also stimulates collagen production, which tightens the skin

​

Benefits 

 

• Can improve the appearance of the jawline, neck, and lower face

• Can restore facial balance and harmony

• Can lift sagging jowls

• Can tone the neck area

• Can provide a shapely chin

​

Side effects 

​

• Mild redness, bruising, or swelling

​

Radio frequency (RF) and electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) are used to tighten, lift, and rejuvenate the skin. They can also be used to improve the appearance of the under-eye area. 

​

What can these devices do? 

​

• Tighten skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

• Reduce under-eye puffiness and dark circles

• Reduce the appearance of chubby cheeks

• Improve blood circulation

• Reduce the appearance of pores

• Stimulate collagen production

THESE TREATMENTS ARE NOT INTENDED TO GIVE YOU SURGICAL RESULTS. THEY ARE GREAT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO START A SKINCARE ROUTINE OR WHO FOLLOWS A SKINCARE ROUTINE, & WANTS TO MAINTAIN THERE RESULTS WITHOUT DOING AGGRESSIVE PROCEDURES.
