Lumi Light Treatments: Real Benefits

Lumi Light Treatments

Acne, redness, and pigmentation issues many people suffer with them on a daily basis, and while most use concealer and makeup to help deal with the after effects of these problems, they simply aren’t enough. Fortunately, Lumi Light treatments can help.
Ideal for your face, eyes, and chest, these treatments deal with four different wavelengths of light that are promptly absorbed by your skin tissue and offer a repairing effect other salon procedures simply can’t. When used correctly, each color from the light has an impact on your skin cells, and the results are simply amazing.

Don’t worry the effects you experience aren’t from a laser. The light panel that you’ll see has hundreds of LEDs that offer cool light in the 470 to 640 nm visible spectrum. Lasers mean damage to the skin to help the collagen reproduce itself, but this isn’t that kind of treatment. Here you get the energy without the heat to cause healing within the body, and there’s no tissue damage necessary. There are lots of real advantages to a treatment like this. First, the lack of skin damage is a real plus, but that also means it’s safe for individuals of any age, and there aren’t any over-priced products to add to the lineup. What’s more, though, is that scientific research has shown there aren’t any long term side effects associated with this method of treatment, so it’s a win-win situation for your skin: a great look now without later problems.

This kind of treatment relies on the different colors of light. There have been dozens of studies to support the theories applied with these treatments. Certain wavelengths of blue light can kill skin bacteria and help with acne. Skin cells also respond to red light by increasing the production of collagen in the surrounding area. That can cause your skin to heal and grow new tissue. It also means a smoother, more elastic look than you could achieve even with surgical procedures. The yellow light applied during the treatment helps you deal with hyperpigmentation and other acne concerns. The green light helps to correct any redness that occurs with your skin.

The Process
The treatment process begins when you wash your face to remove any makeup, oil, or lotion. Then you’ll be able to stretch out and relax while the panel with the LEDs floats slight above your face or the area being treated. Your eyes will be protected throughout the procedure. The lamps are very cool to the touch, so you won’t feel any heat during your session. You can apply your makeup as soon as you leave. Expect your session to last fifteen to twenty minutes. You need to come back about twice a week for a month, then return on occasion for maintenance procedures. Expect before and after photos to help chart your progress.
