To end up here, you must have typed into your search engine, “facelift without surgery Pickering” or “dermaspa Pickering”?  Well, don’t leave, as I promise not to disappoint and give you some cutting edge technological information that will sincerely impact a more youthful look in only 20-minutes.

In Beauty-Full Spa’s Facial section, you will see this description for the “LEDs-FIR 20-Minute Express Face-lift.”

This 20-minute express face-lift fits comfortably into a ½ hour or hour lunch break.  LEDs (light emitting diodes) working in conjunction with FIR (red and infrared light therapy) plus heat deliver long-term lifting results and sometimes even instant results to facial tissue.  This facial face-lift is designed to significantly reduce the visual effects of age without any side effects. The research behind this facial was originally conducted by NASA.  Using this type of heat therapy provides a variety of anti-aging results, including collagen production and cell regeneration. The human body, while not able to perform photosynthesis, can use light rays for various health benefits, such as the long waves of light in infrared therapy. As we age, cellular activity decreases, but with the correct wavelengths of LED light in the range of 750 nm to 940 nm, underlying dermal cells may still receive rejuvenating care. Red and infrared light waves stimulate collagen production to promote natural skin cell growth, reducing wrinkles and fine lines to reveal healthier, younger looking skin. $45

The back story.

For many Baby Boomers weaned on Star Trek and Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), much of what they were exposed to as science fiction is now the new reality in 2019.  Reality check:  In 1968, it would still be another three years before the PC (the personal computer) was designed and invented by John Blankenbaker of Kenbak Corporation in 1970 and first sold a year later in early 1971.  Today’s Sc-Fi speaks to the colonization of Mars in less than two decades.

To push these lofty goals forward, new technologies are consistently being released into the scientific communities and in some rare cases introduced into the mass consumer marketplace.

One such example was derived from two critical questions those being, 1) What treatment protocols will be used for astronauts injured or taken ill on long-term space flights?  2) What sustainable method is required to grow food in zero gravity with limited sunlight during space flights?

During the time of the now retired Space Shuttle Fleet, NASA was able to grow plants on board by using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in the zero-gravity environment.  They also discovered that LEDs encouraged cells to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate). Many people have been led to believe that the food they consume goes through the dietary track and is broken down and used by the body as energy.  Not true.  The human body converts the carbohydrates, dietary fats and dietary proteins into the universal substance referred to ATP.  In 24-hours the human body manufactures and uses an estimated 150 pounds (68 Kgs) to 200 pounds (91 Kgs) of ATP.  For example, when the brain wants you to move a muscle, enzymes breakdown the ATP to release the energy required to trigger this movement.  It is ATP that allows your heart to beat, your lungs to inhale and exhale, turn your head, etc.  It is your first source of energy and is the primary fuel that does not require any oxygen to function.  Thus, discovering that LEDs encourage the production of ATP was a significant discovery.

NASA’s scientists next added infrared (red) light with the LEDs and found that the skin after suffering trauma healed quickly.  It didn’t take long to prove the hypothesis beyond any reasonable doubt.  The combination of the LEDs and FIR did increase the production of ATP which ultimately fueled healthy cellular growth and overall functioning of the fibroblast cells that fully captialized the collagen on site to rebuild human tissue.  Additional research showed remarkable results and the science of Biophotonic or Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) came to be. Both of these terms are interchanged frequently to describe the delivery of light (radiation) energy to treat a variety of medical conditions.    This new technology is used today as a safe and natural method of treating a variety of skin and pain conditions such as acne, anti-aging, pain and most importantly has no recovery time, and is suitable for all skin types.  Devices include hand held and a term tossed around frequently is Cold Laser, (a LASER is an acronym meaning, Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation).

Please note that collagen must be present for these devices to assist in the rebuilding of cells.  Please click on this link to find out more about Hydrolyzed Collagen Protein drink which is available at Beauty-Full Spa Pickering.

Fact, the human body stops manufacturing collagen after the age of 25.  Collagen can only be eaten from animal tissue sources and once in the body is converted into 21 different amino acids.  Sorry plant eaters, collagen cannot be taken from plants regardless of of how many times it is spoken, this is one fact that cannot be spoken into existence, it is truly fake news!

Two notions in life, “we don’t like what we don’t know,” and “we only accept what we understand”.  Now that you have the back story, why not call Beauty-Full Spa at 905-420-0020 and book your 20-Minute Express LEDs-FIR Express Facelift now!
