GENTLEWAVES® LED PHOTOMODULATION®
GENTLEWAVES® LED PHOTOMODULATION®
|
With low intensity light-emitting diodes, GentleWaves® uses a carefully timed sequence of emissions to activate the skin's natural rejuvenation process. This novel technique to skin rejuvenation has no pain, side effects, or downtime. It is extremely fast, lasting only a few minutes. GentleWaves® has clinically demonstrated to show improvement in the majority of patients after 8 treatments.
How is GentleWaves® unique : Current high tech skin rejuvenation therapies operate via photothermolysis to thermally injure tissue and induce a wound healing response or use chemicals to peel damaged tissue. However, wound healing responses are proven unpredictable and are an imperfect mechanism for achieving new collagen production.
GentleWaves® is a natural non thermal process that uses gentle LED's emitting less energy than a 25 watt bulb to improve the appearance of aging and sun damaged skin without skin tissue injury or patient discomfort.
Ideal candidates for GentleWaves®:
- Individuals who have been waiting for a gentle, pain-free skin fitness regime without side effects, downtime or a huge investment.
- Individuals wanting to reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles.
- Individuals desiring younger, radiant looking skin.
- Individuals wanting to enhance benefits of laser surgery, face lift and/or plastic surgery.
- Individuals seeking to repair sun damage and improve the appearance of age spots
- Individuals wanting to improve the overall texture of their skin.
