Dermalux LED Light Therapy Facial

Dermalux LED (Light Emitting Diode) Therapy can either be added onto most facials from an extra £20 for 20mins or as a standalone facial for 30 minutes of LED for £30 where skin is first cleansed, toned, exfoliated, LED light therapy provided followed by moisturiser and SPF.

Award winning, clinically proven Dermalux LED phototherapy is a celebrity skincare favourite. Hailed as the perfect complexion boost, Dermalux uses unique combinations of non-invasive clinically proven Blue, Red and Near Infared wavelengths into the skins deepest layers to boost collagen production, increase hydration, calm redness and irritation and blitz blemish causing bacteria. Originally developed for NASA for plant growth experiments, LED was later discovered to have a beneficial effect for wound treatment and is now used as a skincare treatment. As the light triggers a whole cascade of skin enhancing processes, the benefits continue even after the treatment has finished. Skin cells are energised to revitalise a dull and tired complexion. A course of treatment offers long lasting results, stimulating the skin’s natural rejuvenation and repair processes to promote healthy looking skin, accelerate cell renewal and improve a range of skin concerns. Effective treatment and management of a wide range of cosmetic and medical indications as part of an overall skin care protocol. Indications for use include but as not limited to: skin rejuvenation; complexion; dry skin; pigmentation; acne (mild to severe); redness; sensitive skin; psoriasis; wound healing; pain.

Amanda Holden is a fan. Megan Markle had a course before her wedding and non- surgical procedure expert Alice Hart Davis raves about it. Amanda Holden recently shared a snap of her enjoying the rejuvenating benefits of the Dermalux Flex MD treatment at home. @alicehartdavis gave a fantastic recommendation of the Flex MD in the Daily Mail article ‘Come out of lockdown looking 10 years younger’. Nominated as a ‘Gadget that Really Works’, Dermalux Flex MD knocked nine years off Alice’s skin age after using it over 3 months during the first lockdown. Alice said “Unlike most LED masks which aren’t powerful or precise enough, this lives up to its promise. It is more expensive but uses medical-grade LEDs and has clinical studies to back it up.” The Tweakments Guide.

An intensive course of 12 treatments are generally recommended, taken in close succession (23 sessions per week) for optimum cell activation. Treatments should be at least 24 hours apart for acne, redness and sensitive skin. Regular maintenance is advised. For use prior to invasive procedures 4 treatments is recommended (2 per week) to enhance overall results and reduce post treatment downtime. Supercharge your skin for visible and lasting improvement. Once completed, maintenance treatments are recommended. Individual treatments may be used to energise skin instantly, revitalise a dull complexion, restore luminosity or calm irritation. A perfect boost before a special event or as part of an ongoing maintenance programme. Can be combined with other facials as an ‘add on’ treatment for superior and longer lasting results or to calm sensitivity.

Pre-treatment

Dermalux LED IS safe to treat clients who: are breastfeeding; wear contact lenses; suffer from dry eye conditions; suffer from cold sores/herpes virus (although cannot treat unsuitable unless fully healed due to it being highly contagious); those with a pacemaker or metal implant or who have had semi-permanent make up.

Although LED phototherapy emits safe low-level light energy, eye protector goggles (provided) are advised to be worn for the duration of your Dermalux treatment to protect the pupils from direct illumination. For additional safety clients are advised to keep their eyes closed. For those sensitive to light gauze or cotton pads may be placed over the eyes prior to the goggles for additional protection.

Contraindications

Those with the following medical condition will be unsuitable for Dermalux LED treatment: epilepsy or seizures triggered by light (if no seizure for at least 5 years may be suitable if written consent is obtained); porphyria; lupus erythematous; photosensitive eczema; hypomelanism (albinism); active cancers (full remission is safe, partial remission medical consent required)

Certain medications may run risk of a light sensitive reaction so any clients taking these medications may be contraindicated from receiving LED treatment unless they have written medical consent (with some medication it is possible to have LED 1 week after medication has ceased in many cases): certain antibiotics; chemotherapy, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis medication (e.g. methotrexate); neuroleptic & antipsychotic medication (haloperidol, chlorpromazine, trifluoperazine); anti-arrhythmic & heart conditions (amiodarone); retinoids – oral & topical (isotretinoin; roaccutane);

Any clients who have been taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs-NSAIDs (naproxen; celecoxib) for less than 7 days may require additional Dermalux LED treatments to reach desired result.

Clients who are pregnant will be required to obtain medical consent before treatment; this is because Dermalux LED systems have not been tested on pregnant women and therefore risk is unknown.

Clients on anti-arthritic medication (auranofin; azathioprine) are unsuitable for Dermalux LED treatment

Precautions

Those with the following Dermalux LED treatment: eye disease or conditions & medication or treatment (medical consent may be required); light induced migraines; St Johns Wart; recent introduction of new skincare; under 16 years old.

Improves skin calrity and has anti-inflammatory effects.

Red light 633nm: rejuvenation and cell renewal. Rejuvanating red light accelerates cell renewal and repair, boosing collagen and elastin synthesis for smoother, firmer skin. Reduces fine lines, improves skin texture & tone & increases natural hydration. Skin cells that are energised function better and can regenerate up to 200% faster. Long lasting benefits in appearance and health of the skin.

Near Infared Light 830nm: wound healing action. Near infared light is absorbed in the skins deepest layers and works synergistically with red light for optimum rejuvenation results. Blood circulation is increased bringing vital oxygen and nutrients to help modulate inflammation accelerate wound healing, calm irritation and reduce redness. Ideal for the most sensitive skins. Near infared light build strength and integrity for compromised, environmentally damaged and sensitive skin conditions. It is also clinically effective in the treatment of hyperpigmentation.

Clinicare Carboxytherapy Facial

CliniCare Carboxytherapy non-invasive facial uses new technology clinically proven to work. It is a no-downtime treatment, during which, carbon dioxide is infused into the skin to increase the flow of oxygen and so improve the skin’s appearance and elasticity. No downtime, skin rejuvenating, anti-ageing, tightening & brightening treatment suitable for all skin types except areas with eczema or dermatitis. Can help reduce appearance of acne scars, fine lines & wrinkles.

What is the principle of CLINICCARE carboxytherapy treatment?

By infusing carbon dioxide into the skin, an acidic environment develops. This signals our organism to secure oxygen to the tissue in the treated region and accumulate natural growth factors (vascular endothelial growth factors). Within several days after the treatment there is an increased natural distribution of oxygen in the places of application, a completely new microcirculation is created, lymphoid drainage is increased and in this way skin regeneration is achieved in a natural way. Carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring gas in the body and as such it cannot cause any allergic or other unwanted reactions.

Clinicare Cosmeceutical products are used throughout; treatment includes:

– thorough skin cleanse

– gentle yet highly effective new generation enzyme peel to remove dead skin cells for clean, clear, soft & smooth skin

– a mini hand and arm massage after face mask application. Carboxytherapy gel & activator face mask work together to infuse the skin with carbon dioxide gas to increase circulation & stimulate collagen production.

– retinol day cream containing slow release encapsulated retinol for low sensitivity; based on advanced peptide technology this powerful anti-ageing cream is perfect for combatting and helping to prevent the signs of ageing, smoothing skin and restoring radiance.

– Clinicare Cosmeceutical lightweight lip & eye renewal cream to hydrate, increase elasticity, help with signs of ageing and protect against environmental damage

– SPF if daytime to protect against harmful UVA & UVB rays (tinted or non-tinted available) with added botanical extracts to nourish & moisturise skin

A series of 4 to 8 treatments are recommended for optimal results. Treatments can be conducted once every 7 to 14 days. For enhancement of results carboxy facial can be combined with radio frequency (to help tighten & lift skin) or microneedling treatments (to help induce more collagen & elastin) once skin has fully healed (approx. 1 week).

N.B During the treatment you may feel a slight tingling or even heat reaction and the treated area can become mildly red due to a sudden deposit of oxygen. This reaction is typical and to be expected to some degree. Within 5 minutes post treatment, the carbon dioxide applied to the skin is completely replaced by oxygen. You may go back to your usual activities after treatment and no recovery period is required.
