Skin rejuvenation Skin rejuvenation using lightLow light energy inserted into cells proliferates and stimulates collagen production and induces collagen and elastic tissue synthesis. The Crystal 512 and Record 618 uses specific dose, intensity and wavelengths that enable it to stimulate the cells to produce more collagen and thus rejuvenating the skin.According to findings by Friedmann and co-workers (1993), low doses of light intensify the formation of a transmembrane electrochemical proton gradient in mitochondria. The process happens upon absorption of mitochondrial chromophores such as cytochromes, which are followed by calcium release from mitochondria into cytoplasm by a calcium/hydrogen antiport system and subsequently triggers mitosis and cell proliferation. Low light energy inserted into cells proliferates and stimulates collagen production and induces collagen and elastic tissue synthesis. Lubart and colleagues (1993) investigated the effect of light intensities on mammalian cells, they found that the induction of fibroblast proliferation at a constant dose depends on the applied intensity in a non linear manner. Moreover, they demonstrated distinct combinations of dose and intensity at which the induction of cell proliferation was maximal in a wavelength dependent manner. Van Breughel (1992) irradiated fibroblast cultures at a constant dose varying intensities and exposure time. Results show that the proliferation and collagen production could be only stimulated with medium intensities and exposure times. The Crystal 512 and Record 618 uses specific dose, intensity and wavelengths that enable it to stimulate the cells to produce more collagen and thus rejuvenating the skin. |

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), as most commonly employed by non-specialist
medical practitioners and beauticians, is a method of hair removal from
the body involving the use of a specially constructed xenon flash lamp
and focusing optics. The Intense Pulsed Light hair removal process has become very popular due to its cheaper and faster procedure compared to laser hair removal, which is often more costly and time consuming. The comparison of effectiveness between Intense Pulsed Light and Laser Epilation is debated by scientists, equipment manufacturers and practitioners but is generally accepted to be equivalent results. IPL is generally advertised as "permanent hair reduction" as opposed to "permanent hair removal" (these phrases are misnomers when applied to laser or IPL hair removal). |
