Bioelectrical Impedance Measurement

BioElectrical Impedance Measurement (BIM) measures the electrical conductivity between specific points on the body by creating a "circuit", and then measuring the flow of electricity between those points. BIM devices have been consistently used in medicine to non-invasively obtain important health information. Some of the more recognizable devices include EKGs and EEGs used to measure heart and brain function. You may also be familisa with BIM assessments to determine body fat analysis. There is substantial scientific information supporting BIM Testing. Your health professional has been trained to use BIM to secure valuable detailed information about your body that will assist in more accurately determining the best course of action for your individual needs.

About HydraFacial......


"HYDRATION TRULY IS THE ESSENCE OF LIFE"
"When our cells are not fully hydrated they cannot function at their optimal level. This leads to much of the tissue damage that we call aging. You need to repair the tissues in your body that are losing (water)...,utilizing topical products that encourage healthy cell turnover plus a mix of antioxidant, anti-inflammatories and hydrating ingredients."
                                                                     Dr. Howard Murad, MD


    HydraFacial is a NEW breakthrough in aesthetic technology. The HydraFacial takes its name from the root word Hydrate: "to cause to take up moisture": This ability to moisturize the skin separates the HydraFacial from all other skin resurfacing procedures. The HydraFacial removes dead skin cells and impurities while simultaneously bathing the new skin with cleansing, hydrating and moisturizing serums. The treatment is soothing, refreshing, non-irritating and immediately effective.
    Hydration is the foundation of healthy, radiant skin. Irritation of the skin has been proven to increase the signs of aging. The HydraFacial is a hydrating & non-irritating treatment.
    The HydraFacial treatment is designed for all skin types. Even the most sensitive skin easily tolerates the HydraFacial treatment. Your skincare professional may custom-blend the treatment serums for your unique skin condition.
    The HydraFacial treatment is a fast, efficient treatment that takes as little as 15-20 minutes. There is no discomfort during the procedure - it is often described as feeling like a "cool paintbrush moving slowly over the face".  You may put on make-up and return to your normal activities right after the treatment since there is no downtime.
    Many people report seeing visible skin refinement and an even, radiant skin tone after just one treatment. The smooth results and hydration may last for five to seven days or even longer. A series of six treatments, one treatment each week, is recommended for improving the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and oily/acne-prone skin. After your first series of treatments, you may want to maintain your results with a HydraFacial treatment every two to four weeks.
    No matter what other treatment you may desire, starting with the HydraFacial will greatly enhance your results. This is the Cadillac of treatments!

About LED Lightwave Therapy.....


   

As technology advances for cosmetic treatments, it becomes easier and more cost-effective to maintain a youthful appearance. LED Light Therapy is non-ablative, non-invasive, painless and involves absolutely no downtime. It is safe for all skin types and all ages. This natural process uses gentle  Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to improve the appearance of aging, sun-damaged and acne-prone skin without causing injury to the skin. Enjoy healthy, more youthful looking skin with LED Light Therapy.
The LEDs are callibrated to the optimum wavelengths for best possible results. After cleansing your face and applying eye-protection, your skin care specialist will expose the affected area to the LED lights for a specific time.
Lightwave Therapy can stimulate your body's own natural regenerative system, accelerating the replenishment and repair of collagen and elastin, to restore a youthful appearance. The process requires pure beneficial (UV free) light, which is converted into cellular energy. This energy is used to optimize and revitalize the health of the damaged tissue. This process is also known as "PhotoBioStimulation tm" or Cold Laser.

What is LED (Light Emitting Diodes) Light Therapy?
Light therapy is the application of light energy to the skin for therapeutic benefits. It is a natural photobiochemical reaction similar to the process of plant photosyntheses. NASA's space program has proven that LED light therapy (near infra-red) promotes wound healing and human tissue growth. Red/Infrared light enhances cellular metabolism, accelerates the repair and replenishment of damaged skin cells, as well as stimulates the production of collagen- the foundation of a healthy and smooth skin. Blue light affects p. acnes bacteria, the causative agent of acne, which reduces the incidence of acne. Together they work to produce healthy looking skin!

What are the Benefits of LED Light Therapy?
Promotes collagen production.
Smoothes skin texture; improves skin firmness and resilience.
Restores skin's natural cellular activity.
Reduces the appearance of aging and damaged skin, such as fine lines, wrinkles and superficial hyperpigmentation.
Generates heat to temporarily increase local blood circulation.
Compatible with other skin rejuvenation techniques.
Reduces the incidence of acne.

LED Light Therapy can reduce and even reverse the appearance of aging and damaged skin, resulting in a significant and noticeable cosmetic enhancement. Lightwave tm  is the first and only advanced light therapy system specifically designed for esthetic applications for the entire body.
Lightwave Therapy can help you improve the appearance of tired, flaccid skin (including breasts and abdomen), stretch marks, orange peel and cellulite. Lightwave treatments can help restore skin tone by stimulating lymphatic drainage. Results include a younger looking, smoother and toner body. Lightwave Therapy is not limited to certain body areas; treatment can be aplied to one or more areas simultaneously that are simply in need of cosmetic enhancement. Lightwave Therapy significantly enhnaces all other anti-aging treatments including microdermabrasion, HydraFacial treatments, chemical peeling, and anti-cellulite regimens.

What Results May I Expect?
Many patients notice immediate results while others manifest results after two or more treatments. Typically fine lines and folds are reduce and brown spots are less noticeable. Many report their skin looks soft and smooth and that they look younger. Usually oily skin areas are less oily, and incidence of acne is reduced.

How Many Treatments Are Needed?
A series of three to six treatments scheduled one week apart is recommended. After optimal results are achieved, one or two treatments per month are suggested to maintain the achieved results. Each time you have a treatment, your skin will benefit.

Results may vary from person to person. Results depend on physical condition, age, skin color, skin tone, diet and lifestyle. Noticeable changes are typically achieved in 8-10 treatments over a multiple week period. Consistent treatments are required to achieve and maintain a youthful appearance.

Is There Any Downtime or Discomfort?
The treatments are comfortable, and there are no adverse effects. There is no redness or irritation so you can  return to your normal activities immediately.

 Lightwave Therapy is effective for cosmetic enhancement of the entire face and neck, focusing on reducing the appearance of fine lines and superficial wrinkles by hydrating the skin. Lightwave lifts, tones and restores your youthful appearance with 100% natural looking results. Lightwave Thereapy can also reduce the appearance of facial scars, burns, sun damage, sunspots and even pregnancy mask.
