LED Light Therapy
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and Blue Light) designed to repair damaged skin and significantly reduce the P. acnes, the bacteria responsible for causing inflammatory acne vulgaris. 15 minutes of Blue light first enters the sebaceous glands and singlet oxygen is created. Singlet oxygen then in turn kills the bacteria. Next, the client is exposed to 15 minutes of red light. This acne treatment aids in the healing process of the skin and prevents infection and scarring from occurring.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) specifically designed to address inflammation associated with trauma and/or an allergic reaction that causes discomfort with a focus on clients who experience persistent problems such as joint and muscle discomfort. It is also used within 72 hours of any traumatic event including post-surgical interventions to reduce scarring and encourage normal tissue formation.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) that focuses on skin retraction by increasing circulation and bringing nutrition to damaged tissue. This program is particularly effective over the abdomen, neck and upper chest. Treatments should be applied twice per week and may require between ten – fifteen treatments.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) is designed to increase blood circulation and bring more nutrients to the skins surface which helps to keep the skin from breaking down. It also helps to normalize dry or oily skin, achieving an overall improvement in skin tone and texture.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) uses powerful Infrared and red light to stimulate the reduction of fibrotic tissue and the replacement of normal tissue. Clients usually notice softening of scar tissue. They also notice flattening and widening of the scar. This is a normal sequence in scar reduction. With several more sessions the flat, wide scar will become thinner and remain flat. Some scars may appear to be resistant to this program (hypertrophic and/or keloid). If this is the case, a customized LIGHTWAVE treatment protocol and/or additional treatment options may need to be considered.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) intended to improve discoloration caused by sun damage, chemical build-up, and chemical reactions from chemical peels, and excessive use of skin damaging products. This process normalizes the melanin within the skin. The amount of treatments needed vary depending on the amount of damage to the skin, the thickness of the skin and the age of the client. Severe conditions such as Melasma may be best treated with a combination therapy of topical ointments such as hydroquinone and/or IPL and/or laser followed by LIGHTWAVE Therapy.
LIGHTWAVE proprietary LED light Therapy session (Red and/or IR Light) designed to re-hydrate the face, and increase collagen and elastin formation resulting in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. It aids in decreasing flaccidity, lifting sagging tissues and restoring skin tone and texture resulting in an overall improvement erasing years from the face. Ten treatments are recommended. Maintenance once a month or as needed can prolong the youthful appearance.
Red light (wavelength 625nm-660nm) penetrates human tissue superficially, with approximately 80% of the energy being absorbed in the first 2cm. Red light energy has a significant effect on mitochondrial stimulation, which increases the production of ATP and in turn boosts fibroblast activity. This leads to an increase in cellular turnover, superficial circulation, and an anti-inflammatory emission.
Blue light (wavelength 405nm-450nm) provides a very superficial penetration even with a high- intensity narrowband light source. It is primarily absorbed by the epidermis of the skin. Once it is absorbed, blue light targets P. acnes by stimulating porphyrins which then produce intracellular singlet oxygen and thus inducing bacterial death.
Infrared (IR) light (wavelength 800nm – 900nm) energy penetrates tissue at a greater depth than the blue and red light. Approximately 50% penetrates to 8cm and decreases to less than 1% at 20cm (NASA study). Infrared energy is known to heat tissue and its effects are well documented for therapeutic pain management. For cosmetic applications, IR stimulates the NaK+ pump which increases cell membrane permeability; facilitating equilibrium of cellular pH, while increasing nutritional absorption and elimination of waste byproducts.
(TLi) Topical Light Infusion
This treatment is exceptionally effective at addressing the signs of hormonal aging such as brittle, dehydrated skin. Our unique hydra-fortifying mask delivers a high dosage of ceramides and peptides to strengthen collagen fibers and restore the skin’s natural barrier function. This sensitive skin formula helps to prevent transepidermal water loss (TEWL), improve skin tone, firmness, suppleness and boost nutrient exchange to improve the overall health of the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This treatment is extremely effective at increasing cell turnover and improving cellular communication resulting in improved tone, texture and overall skin health. Our retinol mask delivers a high dosage of retinol with little to no irritation and redness. It will assist in the stimulation of collagen production to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
This treatment is ideal for congested and oily skin. The concentrated gel based mask contains several Power Pure ingredients designed to reduce inflammation, detoxify the skin tissue and reduce unsightly blemishes resulting in an overall improved look and feel of the skin.

This results oriented 20 minute treatment allows the delivery of potent ingredients which have been shown to increase circulation, lipolytic activity, firmness, elasticity and skin density resulting in the appearance of smoother, firmer skin.
This treatment rejuvenates and tightens the skin, boosts collagen production, and fights free radicals. This concentrated mask contains a multi-mineral chrono-energizing complex, known as Sepitonic®M3. Sepitonic®M3 re-energizes the skin by enhancing its oxygenation and stimulating cell respiration and the synthesis of the cell’s energy mediators (ATP, DNA, Proteins). Within 24 hours, these newly revitalized skin cells begin the process of producing collagen, glycoproteins, and elastic fibers in the skin’s extra cellular matrix.
This powerful peptide nutrient mask boosts the skin’s hydration levels and delivers potent antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory ingredients to instantly revive aged and photo-damaged skin resulting in a healthy glowing complexion. It also contains Aldenine®, a remarkable anti-aging peptide designed to restore elasticity and protect the skin from aging.

This treatment is intended to boost skin remodeling using a potent vitamin C serum and GHK copper peptide cream. This serum and cream based combination will help soften, smooth, fade and reduce the appearance of scars including burn scars, surgery scars, acne scars and plastic surgery scars. Please note this setting is usually most effective with new scar.
This treatment utilizes kojic acid and vitamin C to improve discoloration caused by sun damage, chemical build-up, chemical reactions from chemical peels, and excessive use of skin damaging products. This Topical Light Infusion (TLi) process helps to normalize the melanin within the skin. The amount of treatments needed vary depending on the amount of damage to the skin the age of the client but most individuals respond well to 8-10 treatments.
