How will light therapy help to improve the elasticity of skin? <\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Increases circulation and the formation of new capillaries<\/strong>. <\/strong>This brings an immediate healthy glow<\/strong> to the skin, as new capillaries mean more oxygen and nutrients to each skin cell.<\/li>\n
  • Increases lymph system activity.<\/strong> This reduces swelling and puffiness, as the lymph system is actually made more efficient over time, resulting in healthier skin overall.<\/li>\n
  • Stimulates the production of collagen and fibroblasts. <\/strong>Collagen is what is responsible for the elasticity, firmness, and fullness of your skin. The increased production of collagen and fibroblasts is what smooths the texture of the skin.<\/li>\n
  • Causes the release of ATP, or raw cellular energy.<\/strong> This provides energy to the cells to make the most of the additional blood, oxygen, nutrients, detoxification, growth, and repair.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
    \n

    As we age, our skin<\/strong> naturally loses some of its elasticity<\/strong>. This is especially noticeable on the face, neck, and arms. Reasons for this include the destruction of collagen<\/strong> and elastin fibres<\/strong> in the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Experts credit the role of the mitochondria<\/strong> in skin cells for the potential benefits of light therapy<\/strong>. The mitochondrial chromophores allow skin cells to absorb light. A study in the journal Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery notes how the skin cells absorb light particles helps them to produce adenosine triphosphate<\/strong> (ATP), the energy source for all cells. The extra energy is thought to help cells better respond to damage and rejuvenate themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The red and infrared light therapy<\/strong> used in the Photizo Blush<\/strong> has been shown to help with improving the overall elasticity of skin, creating a smoother and more youthful appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
