Red Light District
Modern skincare constantly changes, and the wish to have youthful, radiant skin has led to modern cures, which use the body’s self-healing properties. Aesthetics and Wellness in Houston, TX, with Winnie King, MD, provides clients with the Red Light District Facial, a revolutionary non-invasive treatment for skin care. Using red LED light, this facial stimulates collagen production; decreases the visibility of age changes, and improves the general skin condition.
What is the Red Light District Facial?
This highly specific facial treatment uses red light therapy that is more commonly referred to as Low Level Light Therapy (LLLT) to penetrate skin layers and activate a cellular response. This treatment improves the look of the skin to make it brighter and younger by facilitating the skin’s natural reparative and renewing processes.
A lot of studies have proved that red light therapy is an effective tool for skin improvement. Academic research indicates that red light therapy’s ability to stimulate collagen and improve the skin texture at specific wavelength parameters will help reduce the skin’s inflammation. It thus shines out as one of the best options available for anyone looking for methods of nonsurgical treatment of common skincare issues.
The Science Behind Red Light Therapy
The red light therapy process includes the use of red light waves that have to penetrate the skin and work with cell energy generators, the mitochondria. The absorption enhances cellular energy supply leading to improved cell function, increased production of collagen, elastin and better tissue healing.
Many clinical trials have demonstrated the beneficial effect of red light therapy on the skin. For instance, scientific research has shown that red light therapy will be effective in reducing wrinkles and further improving skin elasticity and hydration.
What to Expect During the Treatment
The Red Light District Facial is a comfortable and relaxing procedure. During the session, a specialized device emitting red LED light is applied to the skin. The treatment is painless, with most patients experiencing a gentle warmth on the skin. Each session typically lasts about 20 to 30 minutes, and there is no downtime, allowing patients to resume their daily activities immediately.
