from the Winter 2005 issue
With the explosion of new procedures in skin rejuvenation important information sometimes can get lost in the shuffle. One of our new treatments for the early signs of sun damage is the GentleWaves® Skin Fitness System. GentleWaves uses a phenomenon called photomodulation to improve the texture and appearance of aging skin. Low intensity, light-emitting diodes (LEDs) activate skin cells with pulses of non-thermal light energy similar to the way photosynthesis allows plants to convert sunlight into cellular building blocks. The pulses of light cause the skin cells to produce more collagen and less of the enzymes, such as collagenase, that break down dermal tissue.
The GentleWaves treatment can also enhance the collagen-stimulating effects of many of our other skin-rejuvenating procedures. To highlight this fact, we have created several specially priced treatment packages when you combine a series of same day, back-to-back procedures and GentleWaves Classic treatments. Those special combination packages are:
| 8 microdermabrasions and 8 GentleWaves Classics | ||
| 5 CoolTouch 3CT™ treatments and 5 GentleWaves Classics | ||
| 5 FotoFacials™ and 5 GentleWaves Classics | ||
| 5 FotoFirms™ and 5 GentleWaves Classics | ||
| 5 FotoFacials™ and 5 Microdermabrasions | ||
| 5 FotoFirms™ and 5 Microdermabrasions |
