Photo Rejuvenation Treatment is the answer for achieving glass-like skin. Celebrities like Angelina Jolie and Khloe Kardashian swear by this treatment to be the reason why they have baby-smooth-looking skin. A non-invasive, anti-aging godsend treatment to reduce the appearance of sun damage, fine lines and wrinkles, and increases collagen production.
If you’ve had your fair share out in the sun, then you may have noticed little brown spots on your skin. Personally, before I understood the importance of SPF and that laying out in the sun to get a tan was probably not the best idea, I now have little sunspots all around my face that I don’t like the look of when I am trying to achieve that natural no-makeup-makeup look. Besides getting sunspots, the harsh ultraviolet rays from the sun can also decrease collagen production in your skin resulting in premature wrinkles and fine lines (no thank you, pass me the SPF and an extra-large sun hat!).
This is where Photo Rejuvenation comes in to help achieve radiant and youthful skin, a light-based technology called Variable Pulsed Light (VPL) that not only treats sun damage, it can also treat broken capillaries and reduce redness, so if you suffer from rosacea – this treatment is right for you.
How does Photo Rejuvenation work?
The process of the treatment begins with prepping the skin through a good cleanse, applying a soothing gel, and protecting the eyes with eye shields. The treatment takes around thirty minutes where light will be pulsed around the facial area. You’ll feel a heat sensation and the light pulses feel almost like slight tapping.
Variable Pulsed Light means your Skin Therapist can choose a variety of wavelengths to suit what is necessary for your skin type. After your treatment is over, the rest of the treatment involves attentive aftercare for prime results. This means, SPF, SPF & SPF, layer it up! Always aim for SPF 30+ and remember to not stay out in the sun for long. Use a light cleanser and applying Vitamin C to your skin post – Photo Rejuvenation treatment helps with the healing process.
