As we age, we begin to notice our skin showing signs of time, sun damage, and lifestyle choices. These facial imperfections can detract from our appearance and well-being. Lumenis One� Photorejuvenation ONE offers dramatic improvement to multiple conditions creating younger, smoother, and healthier skin with little or no downtime.
What makes PhotoRejuvenation ONE with Lumenis One� special?
Lumenis One� is a true fourth generation Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) system with patented state of the art technology that optimizes power, pulsing, and light delivery to provide maximum results, comfort, and safety. Lumenis invented IPL and continues to prefect it. With more clinical papers and more physicians using Lumenis IPL systems, Lumenis IPL is the Gold Standard, and Lumenis One� is the flagship system.
How does Lumenis One� work?
Lumenis One� delivers a special range of wavelengths of light in customizable pulses through a sapphire tip gently onto your skin. The light is absorbed either superficially by broken capillaries and dark pigment or deeply by larger vessels and collagen. Dilated capillaries coagulate, pigmented lesions darken then slough off, and new collagen fibers are laid down, giving the skin a renewed and more youthful appearance.
What areas can be treated?
Photorejuvenation ONE with Lumenis One� can be used to treat any area of the body, most commonly the face, neck, chest, and hands.
How is photorejuvenation performed?
A cold gel is usually applied to the area to be treated, and you may be given dark glasses or goggles to protect your eyes from the bright light. The smooth, cold surface of the Lumenis One IPL handpiece is gently touched to your skin, and pulses of light are applied. You may feel a slight stinging like the snap of a rubber band. An anesthetic cream can be used, but it is seldom required. Each treatment takes about 20 -40 minutes. In general, excellent long-term results can usually be achieved with a series of treatments.
