Quick and totally painless, the GentleWaves LED system stimulates collagen production and improves the tone and texture of the skin. The device uses specially coded light emitting diodes to modulate the activity of cells in the skin. The Gentlewaves is great for reducing fine lines and wrinkles and for improving skin elasticity. It is often combined with other laser treatments for maximum effectiveness. No downtime is expected and no anesthetic is utilized.
How does the GentleWaves LED Photomodulation System Works
GentleWaves is the first device to break the code of LED Photomodulation technology. The key to the science behind GentleWaves lies in using gentle light energy at specifically selected proprietary codes for optimum effectiveness. The modulated light is then delivered to target treatment areas by sophisticated pulsed technology. GentleWaves is not only able to stimulate the body to produce collagen but can reduce the level of the enzyme in the body that breaks collagen down.
