The LightWave™ Skin Rejuvenation System allows therapeutic light waves to penetrate the epidermal layer of the skin enabling increased circulation, which assist in the elimination of toxins resulting in a more healthy and beautiful glow to the skin.
About Phototherapy
Light therapy has been used by ancient cultures (Greeks, Egyptians, Chinese) for thousands of years. It is only recently that science has been able to explain these healing principals and apply them in a manner that is safe and efficient for healing and anti-aging purposes.
Phototherapy is the scientific application of light, to specific points of the body to activate or produce particular physiological results. There is often some confusion, when discussing the behavior of light in tissue. When light is generated, and travels through air, it can be described as being comprised of electro-magnetic waves, measured in nanometers (nm). However, it is the “energy” that we are most interested in. It is the proper combination of energy output, type of light wavelength and absorption of energy in the cell that assists in skin rejuvenation and anti-aging.
The activities caused by phototherapy increase vascularity in the formation of new capillaries as well as help to replace damaged ones. Certain wavelengths of light also stimulate the production of collagen. The chemical compound ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a major carrier of energy in cells and its release allows for a faster acceptance of nutrients in cells and the removal of toxins when stimulated by phototherapy. Increases in lymphatic function also occur with the application of phototherapy.

Light waves penetrate the epidermis and positively charge the mitochondria in the skin cell. |
Photo-therapy has been used world wide to assist in treating a number of medical conditions. Usually the devices used in these treatments are extremely expensive. Skytech has taken a revolutionary approach to blending a combination of highly miniaturized circuitry and lightweight polymers to deliver a low cost solution making this treatment more widely available. The new technology allows treatments to be conducted using an energy-emitting probe that has varying wavelengths and energy outputs. Unlike other photo-therapy devices costing thousands of dollars more, the energy-emitting probe does not need to be connected to a large steel case for power. Yet it delivers as much if not more energy in a shorter time period maximizing treatment effectiveness.
The LightWave™ Skin Rejuvenation System for professionals consists of an energy-emitting probe that emits a combination of infrared and red visible high intensity pulsed energy. This diode design is referred to as a "cluster" diode design and incorporates all the healing properties that both types of lights have to offer. It is important to note that the infrared light will not appear to be turned on because it operates at a light spectrum (940nm) that is not visible to the human eye. However, it is this light spectrum that penetrates deepest into the dermal layers for LightWave™ treatments.
