LIGHT WAVE

Suggested Use: 20 minutes
Combination Treatments: Hyperbaric, Bemer, IV Therapy, Sauna

LIGHTWAVEs patented Red, Infrared & Blue Light therapy can dramatically revitalize your skin without any downtime or discomfort. This technology counteracts years of sun damage, environmental damage, aging, acne and acne scarring. LIGHTWAVE provides noticeable results, often in a couple of treatments, without the high cost and downtime of other more expensive treatment options.

The LIGHTWAVE system uses both visible red and infrared light energy to stimulate your body’s own regenerative metabolism at the cellular level. By stimulating the body’s tissues to convert light energy into cellular energy (ATP), a LIGHTWAVE treatment provides the energy your cells can use to: accelerate the production of collagen and elastin increase cellular permeability, allowing for increased cellular nutrient intake increase the removal of excess fluid and waste products from the cells increase the production of macrophage (scavenger) cells for the removal of toxins/excess pigment/scar tissue increase lymphatic drainage increase vascularization (blood flow) to the surface of the skin.

Treatment Protocols

Anti Aging

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) designed to re-hydrate the face, and increase collagen and elastin formation resulting in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It aids in decreasing flaccidity, lifting sagging tissues and restoring skin tone and texture resulting in an overall improvement erasing years from the face.

Recommendation: 10 treatments

Maintenance once a month or as needed can prolong the youthful appearance.

Anti Aging

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) intended to improve discoloration caused by sun damage, chemical build-up, and chemical reactions from chemical peels, and excessive use of skin damaging products. This process normalizes the melanin within the skin. The amount of treatments needed vary depending on the amount of damage to the skin, the thickness of the skin and the age of the client.

Recommendation: 10 treatments

Maintenance once a month or as needed

Scars

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) uses powerful Infrared and red light to stimulate the reduction of fibrotic tissue and the replacement of normal tissue. Clients usually notice softening of scar tissue. They also notice flattening and widening of the scar. This is a normal sequence in scar reduction. With several more sessions the flat, wide scar will become thinner and remain flat. Some scars may appear to be resistant to this program (hypertrophic and/or keloid). If this is the case, a customized LIGHTWAVE treatment protocol and/or additional treatment options may need to be considered.

Recommendation: Customized

Preventative Care

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) is designed to increase blood circulation and bring more nutrients to the skins surface which helps to keep the skin from breaking down. It also helps to normalize dry or oily skin, achieving an overall improvement in skin tone and texture.

Recommendation: 10 treatments
Maintenance once a month or as needed can prolong the youthful appearance.

Flaccid Skin

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) that focuses on skin retraction by increasing circulation and bringing nutrition to damaged tissue. This program is particularly effective over the abdomen, neck and upper chest.

Recommendation: 2 times a week: 10-15minutes
Maintenance once a month or as needed can prolong the youthful appearance.

Discomfort

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) specifically designed to address inflammation associated with trauma and/or an allergic reaction that causes discomfort with a focus on clients who experience persistent problems such as joint and muscle discomfort. It is also used within 72 hours of any traumatic event including post-surgical interventions to reduce scarring and encourage normal tissue formation.

Recommendation: As needed

Mild to Moderate Acne

LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and Blue Light) designed to repair damaged skin and significantly reduce the P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for causing inflammatory acne vulgaris. 15 minutes of Blue light first enters the sebaceous glands and singlet oxygen is created. Singlet oxygen then in turn kills the bacteria. Next, the client is exposed to 15 minutes of red light. This acne treatment aids in the healing process of the skin and prevents infection and scarring from occurring.

Recommendation: 2 times a week for 10 treatments then down to 1 a week for 5
Maintenance: 1-2 times a month

FAQ

1. What is LED light therapy?

LED light therapy is the process of converting light energy into cellular energy for natural, non-invasive skin rejuvenation. Through a combination of Red light therapy, Blue light therapy and Infrared light therapy these wavelengths work for anti aging therapy, wrinkle treatments, scar treatments, acne treatment s and more. Blue and Red light can also be used to activate PDT, or Photo Dynamic Therapy.

2.How does Red light therapy work?

Red light therapy is used in conjunction with invisible Infrared light for skin rejuvenation and more. LIGHTWAVE therapy is also used for acne scar reduction by combing Red light therapy with Blue light therapy (which can also be used to activate photodynamic therapy, or phototherapy).

Essentially what Red light therapy does – in combination with Infrared light – is stimulate the skin so as to promote skin rejuvenation for:

• Anti aging
• Sun spots
• Flaccid skin
• Acne scar reduction

This therapy can also help reduce wrinkles. As for Blue light therapy, it intensifies the immune functions in the skin and can also be used for photodynamic therapy, or phototherapy.

Determining the right formula for each person’s treatment simply depends on the type of skin rejuvenation desired – from facial rejuvenation to acne scar reduction. For instance, the role it plays in boosting immunity in the skin makes Blue light therapy ideal for killing the bacteria that cause blemishes in the first place. Of course, it is always used with Red light therapy (and infrared light) for its anti-inflammatory effect.

3.How does infrared light therapy work?

Infrared light therapy treatment is used in conjunction with Red light therapy and Blue light therapy for a wide range of skin rejuvenation purposes including facial rejuvenation, facial wrinkle treatments, acne treatments, acne scar treatments.

It’s all part of the natural, affordable and effective led light therapy method known as LIGHTWAVE. In this process, an Infrared light therapy treatment penetrates deep into the body; stimulating collagen and elastin production while also nourishing damaged tissues. Red light therapy and Infrared light therapy have many similar effects on the body. However, infrared light therapy can travel much deeper into the body and is primarily absorbed by the proteins found in the cell membrane which helps to increase cell permeability. Red light therapy and Blue light therapy are also equally beneficial, increasing circulation within the skin and killing bacteria. From body treatments and acne scar treatments, to skin rejuvenation for anti aging treatments, to a facial wrinkle treatment

4.How does Blue light therapy work?

Blue light therapy is used in conjunction with Red light therapy for adolescent and adult acne and acne scar treatments. From acne treatments for mild to severe acne and acne scars, to skin care for acne, Lightwave can help. Blue light treatment is a natural, effective skin rejuvenation technique, and can be used to activate PDT, or photodynamic therapy.

Four common causes of adolescent and adult acne include:

• Increased oil production
• Unusual shedding of dead skin cells
• Increased bacteria
• Inflammation

LED light therapy address these issues when it comes to mild/moderate acne, acne scars, skin care for acne, and even severe acne in some cases. Blue light therapy and Red light therapy alone can be used to target acne and acne scars. However, when Blue light therapy and red light therapy are used in conjunction with each other; they are much more effective at targeting inflammatory acne.
