Lymphatic Drainage: Microcurrents can aid in lymphatic drainage, helping to reduce toxins and waste from the
skin, promoting a clearer complexion.

Glowing Complexion:The dual benefits of microcurrent and hydration may result in a radiant and glowing
complexion.
Non-Invasive Treatment: Microcurrent treatments are generally non-invasive, providing an alternative for
individuals who seek facial rejuvenation without undergoing surgery or more aggressive procedures.
No Downtime: Microcurrent and hydration treatments typically have minimal to no downtime, allowing clients to
resume normal activities immediately after the session.
Customizable Treatments: The machine often allows for customizable treatments, with adjustable settings to
cater to individual skin concerns and sensitivities.

Long-Term Anti-Aging Effects: Regular use of a microcurrent machine with hydration features may contribute
to long-term anti-aging effects, promoting overall skin health and resilience.
Improved Absorption of Nutrients: The microcurrent treatment, combined with hydration, may enhance the
skin’s ability to absorb and utilize essential nutrients, contributing to a healthier complexion.
5 LED Light Therapy: While not directly providing hydration, LED light therapy can be used in combination with
other machines to address various skin concerns. For example, red light promotes collagen production, which
may contribute to healthier and more hydrated skin over time.
Use of LED Light Therapy
1 Cleanse the Skin: Start by cleansing face to remove any makeup, dirt, or impurities. This ensures that the
light can penetrate the skin more effectively.
2 Choose the Right Device: LED light therapy devices come in various forms, including masks, wands, or
panels. Choose a device that suits your needs and is equipped with the specific wavelengths/colors for your
targeted concerns.
3 Follow Device Instructions: Read and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific LED light
therapy device. Each device may have unique features and usage guidelines.
4 Select the Appropriate Light Color:
Different LED light colors provide distinct benefits: Red Light (620-700nm): Stimulates collagen production,
reduces inflammation, and promotes overall skin rejuvenation. Blue Light (405-420nm): Targets acne-causing
bacteria, helps reduce acne and breakouts. Green Light (520-550nm): Calms irritated skin, reduces redness,
and helps balance melanin production. Yellow Light (570-590nm): Improves skin tone and texture, reduces
redness, and enhances lymphatic drainage.
5 Wear Protective Eyewear: Some LED devices come with protective eyewear. If your device includes it, wear
the protective eyeglasses to shield your eyes from the bright lights.
6 Position the Device: Place the LED device over your face, ensuring that the lights are in close contact with
your skin. Follow the device’s guidelines for the recommended distance.

7 Treatment Duration: The duration of LED light therapy sessions can vary. Start with shorter sessions and
gradually increase the time based on your comfort level and device recommendations. Typical sessions may
last between 10 to 30 minutes.
8 Relax During Treatment: Use the LED light therapy session as a moment of relaxation. You can lie down,
close your eyes, and let the lights work on your skin.
9 Consistency is Key: For optimal results, use LED light therapy consistently. Frequency can vary depending
on the device and your skin concerns. Some people use LED therapy daily, while others may use it a few times
a week.
10 Follow-Up Skincare: After the LED light therapy session, follow up with your regular skincare routine. Apply
serums, moisturizers, or other products as needed.

11 Be Patient: Results from LED light therapy may take time to become noticeable. Be patient and consistent
with your treatments for the best outcomes.
