Led light therapy benefits


  • welcome to the cutting edge of anti aging technology! You'll regain your youth, prevent breakouts and transform your appearance with LED Photo Therapy Mask. Phototherapy (also known as LED Therapy, photodynamic therapy and photomodulation) was originally developed by NASA to promote rapid skin healing for astronauts by reenergising the skin at the cellular level. Rejuvenate your skin with photo-modulation for just a fraction of the cost of other expensive photo treatments. The LED Photo therapy mask features 160 LED lights that emit healing blue, red and green light in 5 different intensity settings. Pamper yourself with soothing LED light that will penetrate deep beneath the skin's surface to lighten and rejuvenate your skin, reduce wrinkles and boost collagen production. LED utilises 3 specific wavelengths of red, blue and green Light Emitting Diode light therapy to improve the skin's barrier function, promote collagen production and activate colour sensitive chemicals in skin cells.

    Red LED Light ( 620 - 730 nm Wavelength )
    Red light is proven to stimulate the production of collagen. Collagen is essential for repairing damaged skin tissue and improving skin texture. This leads to reduction of fine lines, wrinkles, scars, large pores and hyperpigmentation. You will enjoy young, healthy and vibrant complexion with continued use.
    Blue LED Light ( 430 - 450 nm Wavelength )
    Blue light reduces inflammation and drastically boosts skin recovery while decreasing skin oiliness by lowering excess sebum production.
    Green LED Light ( 525 - 550 nm Wavelength )
    Green light reduces hyperpigmentation, discoloration, freckles, sun damage, and age spots. It lightens and reduces existing pigmentation, improves overall skin tone, and protects skin from premature discolorations without the use of harmful skin lightening
    LED light therapy can be used up to 30 minutes daily, it has been demonstrated to be 100% safe and has no known side effects. LED lights do not give off harmful UV radiation or heat. LED will not damage the surface of your skin and requires no recovery time - just treat and go.
    The Cosmetic Benefits Behind LED Light Therapy Include:

    • Minimises the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and crow`s feet and minimizes pores

    • Improves the tone and texture of the skin

    • Restores natural collagen production

    • Reduces melanin that causes age spots

    • Minimizes the effects of sun-damaged skin

    • Boosts moisture and circulation

    • Reduces redness, flush and other forms of skin degradation

  • Whether you’re undergoing LED light therapy to combat wrinkles, fine lines, brown spots, or to improve the appearance of your skin, it’s a safe and effective method for varying skin types.

  • *For those of you asking about the benefit of pulsing, here’s the answer: The consensus in the scientific research agrees that delivering the light energy in a pulsed manner, as opposed to continuous wave delivery, allows the cells to absorb more of the energy over the treatment session. The more energy that is absorbed the better. Good LASERs deliver the energy this way but very few LED devices have a pulsing option. It is more costly and sophisticated to include pulsing so most manufacturers skip it. The pulsing in the Celluma algorithm is proprietary. However, like all aspects of Celluma, it’s not just flickering lights, it’s science based. Each wavelength is pulsing at a different frequency and is at a rate perceptible by the cells although not to the human eye. For example, the Celluma wavelengths are pulsing between 80 and 800 hertz (per second) depending on the wavelength.

What is corneotherapy ? What does it mean to your facials ?

Corneothetapy is the skin care concept of the future.  It’s where science meets beauty. It provides the link between dermatology and cosmetics.

( Here’s the skin geek bit: Professor Albert Kligman widely regarded as the father of cosmeceuticals, well known for his pioneering work on corneotherapy, had a clever way of describing it as being like an “outside- in” therapy, where “outside” is the stratum corneum and “in” are the therapeutic effects starting in the stratum corneum and working their way into the deeper layers.)

So, preventative corneotherapy is aimed at supporting the maintenance of healthy skin and the prevention of skin conditions and disease.

Trained therapist will use customised, pure ingredients in their skin care products that can individually adapt to treat specific skin problems.  Think of it as bespoke skin care.

Great advances in our knowledge of the structure and function of the stratum corneum, has led to the development of many innovative products that have not only improved the efficacy but have made them more convenient and easier to use. These include new delivery systems to enhance penetration such as sprays, foams, gels and encapsulation.

Using the principles of corneotherapy it is possible to achieve skin correction and effectively treat many skin disorders before being earmarked for dermatology.  

One of the major advantages of corneotherapy is that it is largely free from side effects in comparison with pharmaceuticals.

As Dr Kligman once said: “Whenever you see inflamed skin, regardless of its cause, it means that the stratum corneum is leaky and permeable. But, if you repair the stratum corneum, that tells the underlying tissues that they don’t have to keep reacting like there’s danger in the environment.”  At Sole Revival we have developed a unique and effective range of treatments and products to restore balance to the stratum corneum and promote ongoing healthy, balanced skin.

Recent clinical studies* have shown that not only barrier disorders like acne, rosacea and atopic dermatitis respond particularly well to corneotherapy, but cornification disorders may also be treated with success. An important precondition of a healthy stratum corneum seems to be the presence of Phosphatidylcholine. This substance plays a significant role as a natural component of the cellular membranes.  Moreover in its native form, it provides the linoleic acid for the formation of ceramide 1.

Phosphatidylcholine is also an essential element for the transformation of ceramides into sphingomyelins. It is an interesting fact that the fluidity of the skin barrier layers may be increased with linoleic acid containing Phosphatidylcholine.

Skincare, what you should know

There is so much information on social media where the stronger the skincare products are the better. But when it comes to active ingredients such as Vit C, Retinol, AHA's and Vitamin A, this information can be very misleading and actually ruin your skin, turning healthy skin into compromised skin that is sensitive and inflamed. The belief that unless you're experiencing dryness and flaking on a regular basis that your results are going to plateau and the ingredients aren't working hard enough for you is not correct. When your skin becomes compromised it’s a clear sign to take it easy and nourish your skin with non active products to improve your skins health. If you over-do things, particularly with AHA's and Vitamin A, you risk impairing you’re skins natural barrier.

Remember our skin is an organ not a muscle, it does not need to be pushed beyond its limits to become stronger.

Collectivity our skins microbiome are what keep our skin healthy. They regulate water loss and cell turnover, as well as protecting us from free radicals and pollution.

When we see acne, rosacea, sun damage, wrinkles ect, it’s a sure sign that our skin is not operating the way it should and it requires correction. Knowing exactly what is required to correct the skin is the key, this is when a good therapist, knowledgeable in how cells function can help you. They will tell you, there is no quick fix. Most of the skin issues we see occur in the epidermis, so the first port of call should be perfecting how those layers are being formed. Once we do that all the skin issues will start to correct themselves over time. Wrinkles and loss of elasticity are dermal ( surface) issues but really it began in the epidermis long before it became visible.

Remember less is more and consistency and importantly patience is key. Get skin savvy and find yourself someone who has invested their time into educating themselves to understand what it is your skin needs. When I recommend a product to you it’s not to sell you something, it’s to help you. Customised skin care programmes are the way of the future.

Think about the analogy of the marathon runner. If you were asked to run a marathon with no training or preparation would you do well, not likely, in fact you would do yourself damage. It’s the same with homecare products, they are your personal trainer, setting you up for success. With preparation your less likely to risk injury as well as downtime and recovery time.

Would you like a younger, fresher face, without surgery? Consider Radio Frequency, the non-surgical facelift.

Radio Frequency Facial. What are they? 

People in their 30s considering anti-ageing treatments and maintenance procedures may find radio frequency facial rejuvenation an attractive proposition. It is quick, relatively affordable and requires little down time.

Those who, like Gwyneth Paltrow, would rather stay away from invasive cosmetic surgery and anti-wrinkle and dermal filler injection treatments opt for radio frequency as it is a non-invasive treatment option.

Radio frequency treatments improve the skins elasticity, the skin quality and the tightness. Resulting in a more youthful appearance.

Who is it suitable for ? They are suitable for those who have mild to moderate skin laxity in the face. People of any skin colour can be treated with radio frequency devices.

You are a candidate for radio frequency treatments if you desire any of the following:

  • To lift the brows and tighten the skin on the forehead

  • To thicken and tighten the skin under the eyes

  • To lift the upper cheeks

  • To lift (slightly) and diminish enlarged pores on the cheeks and mid-face

  • To reduce jowls and sagging along the jaw line

  • To tighten skin and diminish wrinkling on the neck

WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO  SEE RESULTS? 

Collagen remodelling is reformation of the skin’s scaffolding and does take time.  However clients claim they can see & feel improvements immediately after the treatment. In general though we tell clients to expect to see an  improvement over 4-6 weeks, in that time you will notice a change in your skin’s tone, as collagen tightens, scars remodel and skin drainage improves. This change will continue for several months after RF Treatments.

In general though we tell clients to expect to see an  improvement over the next couple of days and this will continue for 4-6 weeks, in that time you will notice a change in your skin’s tone, as collagen tightens, scars remodel and skin drainage improves. This change will continue as your collagen has now increased. Every RF treatment you receive increases your collagen production and it is this cumulative effect that turns back time and erases the signs of aging.

What is the best anti-aging Facial ? skin needling or radio frequency?

What is the best anti aging treatment available?

Without a doubt the Skin Needling and the Radio Frequency non-surgical Facelift are both excellent. But if the thought of needling your skin is just too much for you opt for the RF.

As we get older our muscles shrink causing surrounding fat and tissue to take on a 'drooping' appearance. When facial muscles begin to shrink the shape of the face itself changes and can be very ageing. Unlike other treatments on the market, the 'Radio Frequency treatment works at the deeper level of the muscle, not simply at the surface level of the skin. By rebuilding the underlying muscle mass which supports the skin layer, the face itself becomes 'lifted'. Fine lines and wrinkles on the surface of the skin then become reduced or eliminated. The radio frequency treatment also stimulates the body's natural production of collagen and elastin, further enhancing skin tissue and accentuating a more youthful appearance.


The radio frequency facelifting treatment is a natural way to exercise facial muscles which unlike the body are particularly difficult to exercise effectively even with extensive manual manipulation. Originally developed for those suffering from Bells Palsy and Strokes it was discovered that when the treatment was applied to the 'drooping' side of the face that it actually lifted higher than the unaffected side. The results can be remarkable. For 24-48 hours after a treatment the muscles continue to work and regenerate themselves.
