As we get older, we tend to focus on the visible signs of aging like gray hair, liver spots, and frown lines. However, we rarely pause to think about what is happening to our body at the cellular level. In this article, we take a closer look at the root cause of aging and how red light therapy can help you live a longer, healthier life.Continue reading
Our skin is a barrier that protects us from things such as disease, UV rays, and many minor injuries. It is the part of our body that is directly exposed to our environment and can become damaged over time. Wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and sagging skin are the result of excess exposure to the sun, environmental pollutants, and adverse weather conditions. Topical Light Infusion Therapy can help reverse this damage by infusing key ingredients targeted at revitalizing collagen and tightening the skin to provide a more youthful appearance.
TLi treatments are much different than a standard LED light therapy session. LED light therapy uses red light to energize your body’s own cells to naturally stimulate collagen production. Whereas TLi therapy uses specific pulses of light energy in combination with a topical treatment to “push” skin care ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and peptides into the lower layers of skin. This safe and effective treatment can plump up the skin leaving it firm and hydrated with no downtime. To maximize results, it is highly recommended that a standard light therapy session be performed in combination with a TLi treatment.
The TLi Wrinkle Repair mask contains vitamin C, collagen, hyaluronic acid, and key peptides that will repair and hydrate your skin. Over eight treatments, this can lift sagging skin and improve elasticity so that your skin appears smooth and youthful. It also promotes a more uniform skin tone and texture.
It is recommended that following the eight initial treatments, you continue to receive touch-up treatments every four to six weeks. This will prolong the impact of the therapy and also repair any damage that naturally occurs due to time in the sun. Patients often notice that this treatment in combination with light therapy, removes years from their face, making them look younger and more vibrant.
There are other masks available that can treat a wide range of skin conditions. Whether you are concerned about dehydrated skin, fine lines, inflammation, skin discoloration, or a specific skin condition, you can tailor your treatment to your unique needs.
Each treatment takes between 15-30 minutes. The selected mask is first applied to the skin. Rather than delivering light directly to the skin, light is delivered to the mask or topical to create an infusion that stimulates the tissues underneath. The type of light used will vary based on the skin care product that is used, but in all cases, you will experience the stimulation of collagen and increased skin elasticity.
You will need to plan for about 20 minutes of pretreatment and post-care. The time needed to see visible results will depend on the skin concern being treated and will vary from person to person.
