LET THERE BE LIGHT…
Anika Skincare & Makeup would like to announce the addition of LED Phototherapy to our facials services!
Developed by NASA this Intense Light Emitting Diode (LED) phototherapy is the application of specific light energy to tissue that is compromised to obtain therapeutic benefits. The energy is used to improve cellular performance.
LED Phototherapy is known for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties and a variety of applications across medical fields. LED Phototherapy is designed to improve your skin’s health from the inside out, targeting problem areas at the cellular level for maximum efficacy. LED Phototherapy utilizes scientifically-proven low-energy LED light to promote skin health through increased circulation, waste elimination, and moisture retention, improved cellular turnover and growth, and stimulation of collagen and elastin, the building-blocks your skin needs to say fresh and healthy.
Delivered through a revolutionary flexible and shape-taking light-array panel healing light exactly where your skin needs it most, fighting acne and reducing the most visible signs of damage and aging.
Who would benefit from this type of a treatment?
All skin types. It is non-invasive. No down time. It’s great for people looking to have visible, lasting results for anti- aging, sun damaged skin, rosacea, and acne. It can be down as a stand-alone treatment, or in a series for optimal results. Perfect for those who want to avoid medical lasers, and injectable's. And, for individuals with acne wanting to avoid Accutane and strong topicals.
Benefits of LED Phototherapy:
Can be combine with Non-Surgical Facelifts for anti-aging treatments
Want younger looking skin? Want to look and feel great without having to do medical lasers, or injections? Intense LED Phototherapy may be right for you. Some individuals may also combine this treatment with our non-surgical face and neck lift treatments as well.
For optimal results we recommend a series. For lines and wrinkles three - 30 minutes sessions per week for one month. Certain individual's may need additional treatments. After series once every 3 to 4 weeks is recommended. For individuals having both non-surgical micro current facials and intense LED Phototherapy, a slightly different series protocol would be done.
