Radiancy LHE – THE SCIENCE OF LIGHT & HEAT ENERGY LHE

Radiancy LHE (Light, Heat, Energy) delivers effective and safe skin care. Non-invasive, non-abrasive treatments have no down time with clinically proven results with proven safety and efficacy for all skin types. This is especially suited for Skin Types V-VI. This Phototherapy is inherently safe and its flexibility enables it to be used for a wide variety of applications. These include for:

• Psoriasis care
• Acne clearance
• Skin tightening
• Skin rejuvenation
• Wrinkle reduction
• Collagen renewal
• Vascular and pigmented lesion treatments
• Hair removal

THE DEVELOPMENT OF PHOTOTHERAPY

Phototherapy uses light to heal or treat a medical or aesthetic condition. Phototherapy balances wavelengths, intensity, and exposure (pulse) duration to tailor each treatment to specific needs and conditions. In the early 80’s, a new method of light-based therapy, selective photo thermolysis, was developed. The theory of selective photo thermolysis maintains that by optimizing certain application parameters, the practitioner can target a specific chromophore while minimizing the effect on surrounding tissue.

Most light-based technologies, like laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL), rely on light energy to effect clinical changes while they filter out the subsequent heat. They filter out the heat created by the light flash or pulse. Because they filter out the heat instead of using it, they require extremely high fluences for clinical efficacy, high fluences that require skin cooling techniques to protect the client from burns. Radiancy felt there had to be a better way.

THE LHE DIFFERENCE

LHE advances the principles of selective photo thermolysis by utilizing the dual energy pathways of light and heat to gain the greatest advantage of the light/heat relationship. Patented internal filters protect the skin and proprietary algorithms take full advantage of the skin’s thermal absorption characteristics. These innovations create the exact balance of light and heat necessary to achieve clinical efficacy in a variety of clinical applications. Because it uses low fluences, LHE’s natural fusion of light and heat creates a far more efficient photo thermal technique.

The addition of direct heat increases overall effectiveness and lowers fluence to ultra-safe levels. Lowering fluence allows us to eliminate the need for skin cooling techniques, simplify the treatment process and minimize the risk of harmful side effects, making it safer, easier and more cost effective. This unique balance of light and heat also enabled effective treatment for more difficult hair (i.e., salt-n-pepper) and skin types.

Skin Types V-VI and sensitive, and Asian skin could now comfortably and safely benefit from phototherapy treatments. A specialized LUA (light unit assembly) for these skin types further enhances safety and comfort without compromising results.
