Blue Light Acne Therapy: A Common Fixture in Facial TreatmentsBlue Light Acne Therapy: Technology for the Skin Science has taught us that the skin is an organ in its own right. It breathes, sweats, and shelters. It also is sensitive to its surroundings, of which light is a big part. Technology has advanced to a point where acne can be eliminated thanks to the wonders of blue light acne therapy. Specifically, blue light acne therapy works on the premise that Vitamin D is very important to the overall health of the skin, which is true. The blue light acne therapy is meant to invigorate the skin by increasing blood flow. Thus, the result is healthier skin, which naturally should lead to a clearer complexion. Blue light acne therapy can come in several different forms, but for the purposes of having the process done during a facial, it is usually done in the form of a wand. An aesthetician will clean the skin, and then shut off the surrounding lights or dim them. The aesthetician will then wave the wand over the areas where the acne is the worst, thus beginning the process of evening out the skin. The process is not meant to be painful, but to experience a tingling sensation is normal. After the blue light acne therapy process is over, the skin will be washed again. A mask will be put on the face, drawing out oil and dirt, the usual contaminants that cause acne. Then it is time to relax for about 20 minutes to half an hour. Once the mask has dried, the mask will be washed off, and your skin will feel rejuvenated. For optimal results, a facial should be gotten at least once a month. However, it is important to note that a facial should not be done too much, otherwise you will get dry, irritated skin. It should be noted that facials are not the only ways to combat acne. Using a daily face wash, and getting lotions from a dermatologist are just two of the ways that acne can be combated. With the proper care, your acne will soon be diminished and, eventually, gone. |
