Through the aging process cellular production slows and collagen levels diminish, resulting in dull skin tone, fine lines and wrinkles. Collagen and Elastin are produced in cells called Fibroblasts. Inside the cells is a smaller cellular structure called Mitochrondria. Mitrochrondria are responsible for converting nutrients into an energy carrier known as Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). This (ATP) fuels the cell’s activities; it is basically the powerhouse that gives the cells the needed energy to do their job.
Photo-rejuvenation or light therapy sends light rays into the Fibroblast cells, which in turn excite the Mitochrondria into producing more ATP. ATP fuels the cell’s activities, which causes more of the needed Collagen and Elastin to be produced.
Light energy at specific wavelengths significantly increases collagen regeneration and cell turnover rate. This stimulates cells to produce and function at optimum levels creating an anti-aging effect on the skin.
Photo Rejuvenation is completely safe. There is no pain or downtime.
Normally a series of six sessions is suggested with a maintenance visit every month or two — depending upon your “sun and fun” exposure. Best of all, improvements can continue after the Photo Rejuvenation series as fibroblasts and elastin continue to grow — an excellent companion to follow microdermabrasion.
Reserve your time for this remarkable new procedure.
