OMEGA LED Infrared Light Treatment.

One of the biggest trends and highly talked about treatments among Hollywood’s finest. LED (Light Emitting Diode) Facial or colour light therapy uses 4 clinically proven wavelengths of UV free LED light. Red, blue, green and yellow, that are said to boost collagen production and treat existing acne and many more conditions. Wow, sounds magical and too good to be true? Working from the inside out to enhance mitochondrial function in the cells this in turn leads to several proven skin benefits. 

Red infrared light is useful in decreasing inflammation, smoothing skin tone, repair sun damage, scars and stretch marks and has been used for pain relief and stimulating post procedure wound healing. As a further bonus it can also help stimulate hair growth in people with alopecia and stimulate collagen production for people who hope to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Induction of anti-aging creams or serum‘s using products containing peptides, retinol, vitamin C or argan oil after light therapy sessions will speed up the results. 

Blue light is effectively used to kill bacteria that cause acne, provides effective treatment for dull skin, control of sebaceous glands, prevents inflammation and has a calming effect on irritable skin.

Red light is used to speed up healing and stimulate collagen, simultaneously shrinking large pores and tightening the skin.

Green light affects the melanocytes cells that produce melanin which is the pigmentation in the bottom layer of the epidermis. By reducing its production overtime, spots gradually fade away for a rejuvenated more even complexion. Provides calming effects, good for sensitive skin, relaxing to both body and mind.  

Yellow light wavelength is effective in treatment of skin redness and spider veins and also an ideal therapy for sensitive skin conditions like red spots, blushing facial types and pigment lesions.

Interesting fact, light photons penetrate through the skull and into brain cells stimulating the mitochondria to produce more ATP, meaning clear, sharper thinking. What an added bonus to provide health benefits too!

Nano Needling Skin Resurfacing 

Microscopic skin resurfacing gently encourages rejuvenation. Treatment rebuilds collagen and elastin in the dermis, resulting in clearer skin tone and more even complexion. Benefits result in firmer skin from evening out surface texture with effects that can last past 6 months. Treats fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, stretch-marks, enlarged pores, dull skin and discolouration aka brown spots from sun damage. Great for increasing product penetration, skin tightening and has slight lifting effects. 3-5 days post care skin will have a slight “sunburn” pinkness, with slight flaking so be sure to avoid direct sun post procedure. Finished results are glowing, radiant and healthy looking skin. Recommended every 4-6 weeks.

Microneedling Skin Treatment

Fine pin point needles make tiny microscopic holes in the surface area, slightly deeper than the Nano Needling thus helping to encourage collagen and elastin in the epidermis to rebuild activation of the healing process. Ideal for deeper scar resurfacing and outer layer of the strata tissue damage (more passes may be required). A topical numbing agent is used for maximum comfort, along with a peptide conduction gel or a Hyaluronic acid for best results. Might experience slight tingling but no pain. Pinpoint bleeding is normal as is dryness, peeling/flaking. 3-5 days post care, some redness and some may experience slight swelling. This definitely is a weekend treatment not to be done right before a big event, however it is a non-invasive treatment. 4-6 weeks between appointments for optimum results. There are some conditions that make some clients not ideal for this treatment. 

Skin Rejuvenation Nano\Microneedling Aftercare:

Slight tingling, but little to no pain. Experiencing pinpoint bleeding is normal. Expect 3-5 days healing with slight flakiness and or pinkness. Gently wash brows with cotton swab and apply healing ointment sparingly. Less is more. Up to 4 to 6 weeks between appointments before touch up/follow up appointment. Not recommended for people with thyroid conditions/pregnant. No sun post treatment 2 weeks, daily SPF is recommended. 

High Frequency Skin Therapy

An Electrotherapy device technology, originally invented by legendary inventor Nikola Tesla. An effective and useful beauty therapy with the use of Neon and Argon applicators. Glass electrode tubes produce a high frequency current which you can apply to the skin to achieve the intended results. Calms the nerves and produces an analgesic response. Produces “oxygenation” ozone/O3, the fresh rain smell (this is normal and not harmful in small amounts) used for skin sterilization, helping heal wounds faster. Improves PH profile and promotes skin to heal naturally. Accelerates blood circulation and cellular metabolism. Anti-aging, anti-wrinkle, line reducing and has skin tightening benefits. Not recommended for persons who are pregnant or use a pacemaker.

Ne (Neon) is an effective treatment for anti-aging as it’s said to promote warmth to the treated area which increases blood circulation, cellular turnover and improves product penetration.

Ar (Argon) is 100% natural and particularly effective as an anti-bacterial with additional healing benefits. Used for spot treating acne whilst also giving your skin a boost. Cycle between Ne and Ar for best acne reducing results every 2-3 weeks.

FYI: Ultraviolet light(sun/violet ray) + Oxygen(O2)= Ozone (O3)  
The smell of rain i.e. ‘negative ions’ are the “feel good” energy molecules that come from an atmosphere charged with electricity. Natures natural way to clear and purify the air.

O3 (ozone) attaches itself to bacteria/ viruses/ mould/ spores/ pollutants and chemicals, sterilizing them to render them harmless and leaving fresh ozone with anti-microbial properties which can be inhaled. Benefits are used in Ozone Wellness Therapy optimizing the body’s functions, increasing circulation in the cardiovascular system (blood/oxygen delivery to cells/brain), therapeutic, anti-depressant, anti-inflammatory, anti aging, lymphatic drainage, increased cognitive function, reduces acidity in the body, balances PH enhancing homeostasis. Used in water therapy as purification, stimulates immune system and promotes well-being.
