How often can you do radiofrequency skin ...

With any effective body treatment, it is good to leave one, two or more days between sessions in order to allow for the skin to recover. So with a deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency treatment, you must leave at least 2-3 days between sessions. With ineffective, low power RF treatments, you can leave less time between sessions (as little…

Radiofrequency, collagen stimulation and skin ...

The main thing that radiofrequency does is to tighten skin. This happens via two mechanisms: RF stimulates existing collagen contraction; RF stimulates new collagen and elastin synthesis. In fact radiofrequency is the best way to achieve both collagen contraction and production. Any other technique is simply not effective enough, unsafe or both.

When it comes to skin tightening / toning / lifting, radiofrequency is the only game in town.

Does cavitation tighten loose skin?

High-power ultrasound cavitation is one of the two most effective SAFE methods for cellulite reduction, especially when provided by a well-trained, experienced and knowledgable therapist. Normally cavitation is not recommended for skin tightening, as it only exerts a weak skin tightening effect, when applied as usual…

Can radiofrequency dissolve Botox or fillers?

Radiofrequency increases the metabolism of tissues where it is applied. Increased metabolism will result to increased breakdown of products such as fillers and botox. Furthermore, certain types of radiofrequency, such as high frequency RF, should not be used on fillers, as temperature may increase disproportionately inside the filler, potentially causing damage…

LED infrared light therapy

Red light therapy: is a 10-minute treatment enough?

Red light therapy: is a 10-minute treatment enough?

Red and infrared LED light therapy (What does red light therapy do?) is highly effective and extremely safe for both cosmetic purposes and health conditions (back pain, musculoskeletal injuries, seasonal affective disorder, etc.). With a high-power LED unit, 10 minutes may suffice, though 20 minutes (and occasionally 30 minutes) would be preferable. A high-power device is one delivering approximately 60-200mW/cm². Anything exceeding 200mW/cm² for the body or 120mW/cm² for the face is unwise unless conducted in a professional environment with meticulously crafted protocols and for a briefer duration…

Red (and infrared) light therapy: all you need to know

Red (and infrared) light therapy: all you need to know

Infrared and red light therapy, often termed photobiomodulation and mostly applied via LEDs, is a non-invasive treatment that employs specific wavelengths of light to stimulate healing and address a variety of health and aesthetic conditions. This innovative therapy has surged in popularity in the last decade, celebrated for its efficacy, safety, and adaptability. In this article, we will explore the scientific foundations of red and infrared LED light therapy, clarifying its mechanisms, its multiple health benefits and the practical considerations for its application…

Infrared and red light therapy after ultrasound cavitation

Infrared and red light therapy after ultrasound cavitation

At the clinic we use ultrasound cavitation for cellulite reduction, focused with great precision on the hypodermis and dermis, leaving the epidermis alone, as it should be for this application. And we use LED red light therapy, mainly in the infrared wavelength, to maximise the results of our deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation treatments. It is now firmly established that infrared and red light therapy boosts mitochondrial function and thus cellular energy, and we have observed that when applied following cavitation treatment, it significantly improves the outcomes of cavitation for cellulite reduction…

LED red / infrared light therapy after radiofrequency

LED red / infrared light therapy after radiofrequency

At most clinics LED light therapy is provided after radiofrequency as a means to calm down skin after a very superficial radiofrequency treatment, which can irritate the skin. Low level light therapy (LLLT) in the red (around 630nm) and infrared (around 850nm) wavelengths is known to help calm and heal irritated skin and has been used for this purpose for decades. At our clinic, however, we do not use superficial radiofrequency for skin tightening largely because it is pointless for this purpose: fibroblasts (collagen cells) are found in the dermis (middle skin layer), while superficial RF acts primarily in the epidermis (top skin layer)…

We also do not use superficial radiofrequency for cellulite reduction because it is utterly pointless for this purpose. Fat cells and deeper seated collagen structures

Can I have infrared / red light therapy treatment with makeup on?

Can I have infrared / red light therapy treatment with makeup on?

Red and infrared light therapy (phototherapy) is very popular as an anti-ageing facial treatment, as it is generally very safe and instantly effective. The general rule is that makeup must be removed before phototherapy treatment. This is because makeup quite often contains ingredients which aim to reflect light back from the face, in order to create an effect of “radiance” and light on the skin. However, if they have a treatment during lunchtime, many women find it a hassle to remove...

Red and infrared light therapy with an LED device can indeed help with anti-ageing, skin healing and rejuvenation, giving skin a healthy glow and helping prevent skin laxity and fine lines and light wrinkles. However, its effect is not strong enough to reduce nasolabial folds (smile lines), especially deep ones that have formed over…

Genuine, AI-free content

This website is human-written 100%. We do not use Chat-GPT or any other AI tool for our pages and articles to bombard you with low quality, copy-paste spam articles and inaccurate information.

Chat-GPT and similar tools copy the web to regurgitate meaningless lowest common denominator platitudes, i.e. generally accepted myths that often have nothing to do with reality. Plus plenty of inaccuracies, misinformation and a healthy added dose of literally made up stuff - what AI experts call “AI hallucinations”.

No AI tool has the depth of experience accumulated over tens of thousands of sessions with real human beings (in fact, AI tools have zero experience, obviously). Neither can an AI tool discriminate what is reality and what is made up BS on the web.

Of course, the aesthetics industry is already full of myths, inaccuracies, platitudes and hallucinations anyway, so the advent of AI does not make much of a difference. The beauty industry has always been full of BS (sorry, that’s the correct word), AI or no AI.

So 24+ years on, we still keep it real, regardless of AI.

Disclaimers

Efficacy: As with any medical / aesthetic treatment or skin product, results vary from person to person depending on lifestyle, genetics, state of health (how each individual body responds to treatment), so specific results cannot be guaranteed. BTW, there is NO cellulite removal or long-term skin tightening/lifting with one, two or even three sessions and there is neither 100% (nor permanent) cellulite removal/skin tightening/lifting, with ANY technique, including ours, so we never make such misleading claims.

Safety: Our treatments have proven 99%+ safe over the last 14+ years (with minor/temporary irritation occurring in the other 1%- of treatments). However, as with any medical/aesthetic treatment or skin product, sensitivity varies from person to person, and from time to time even on the same person, depending on lifestyle, genetics and state of health (how each individual body responds to a treatment at a specific time), so we cannot guarantee 100% safety.
