FACIAL TREATMENT ADD-ONS
LED LIGHT THERAPY
LED, or light emitting diode therapy is a skincare treatment that uses varying wavelengths of light to help serums and moisturizers penetrate the skin after a facial treatment. LED light therapy has a positive effect on cell growth, collagen and elastin production, and helps lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
NASA originally developed it for plant growth experiments on shuttle missions and later found it to have promise for wound treatment. LED light therapy is used to help regenerate the skin from aging and also used to treat acne.
Red, blue, green or yellow light frequencies are used based on the skincare concern:
Red light therapy is used to increase the production of collagen and elastin to smooth out wrinkles, fade fine lines, and give your skin a firmer and revitalized appearance. Red light therapy is also used to reduce inflammation, speed wound healing, and control hair loss.
Blue light therapy is used to eliminate acne-causing bacteria, reduce acne and help ease inflamed skin. Blue light therapy is also shown to help treat some forms of skin cancer, reduce acne scars, and reduce depression.
Green light therapy is used to fade dark spots and hyperpigmentation, promote healing and even out skin tone. Green light therapy can also be used to lighten freckles, reduce inflammation and calm redness.
Yellow light therapy is used to help stimulate the lymphatic system, soothe sensitive skin and brighten complexion. Yellow light therapy also has anti-inflammatory benefits which help reduce swelling and inflammation.
Unlike other types of light therapy, LEDs do not contain ultraviolet rays, so it is safe for regular use.
LED light therapy doesn’t cause burns compared to other anti-aging treatments and may be safe for all skin colours and types.
You should not use LED light therapy if you take Accutane for acne or if you’re experiencing skin rashes.
Side effects are rare, but may include increased inflammation, redness, and rashes.

HIGH FREQUENCY
High frequency is a skincare treatment that uses electrical current to treat a variety of skin conditions, including acne, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles, dark eye circles and puffy eyes. High Frequency produces enriched oxygen molecules that create an anti-bacterial action and warming effect on the skin, which helps blood vessels push away toxins while increasing blood circulation and cell renewal, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin.
Renowned scientist Nikola Tesla developed the first high frequency appliance in the late 1800’s, which was largely used for medical treatments such as treating strep throat and other infections, and to expedite the healing of wounds.
French biophysicist Jacques-Arsène d’Arsonval introduced the use of high frequency currents in 1892 to treat skin and mucous membrane diseases.
The cosmetic and healing benefits of high frequency on the skin was discovered in the 1970’s and by 1980, high frequency became widely used in North America by skin care professionals to treat a range of skin concerns from skin lesions, acne, waxing procedures and cold sores, to fine lines and wrinkles, sagging skin, dark eye circles and puffy eyes.
High frequency is considered to be a very safe, non-invasive and therapeutic approach to skin rejuvenation and healing, and has become one of the leading treatments for many skin conditions ranging from acne to wrinkles to hair loss.
