How Does The NLite® System for Wrinkle Reduction through Laser Collagen Replenishment Work?
The NLite® system for wrinkle reduction through laser collagen
replenishment uses a specific wavelength of yellow laser
light to stimulate your own collagen growth. The procedure
is non-ablative, which means it does not cut or burn the
outermost layer of skin. Instead, the laser targets the
layers of collagen beneath the skin's surface. No anesthesia
is necessary for this procedure, and normal treatment time
is less than 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area
and the number of wrinkles to be treated. The majority of
people cannot see any visible marks on their skin after
the procedure. You can then return to your normal activities
without feeling self-conscious or worrying if anyone can
tell you have just had a cosmetic procedure. Gradually,
over a few weeks, your new collagen forms and fills the
voids causing wrinkles, reducing their depth. The result
is smoother, younger looking skin.
Little to No Pain
The procedure causes little to no pain, and no anesthesia is necessary. Most people describe the feeling as a warm sensation.
Fast and Convenient
The procedure is very fast, requiring an average treatment time of less than 30 minutes, depending on the size and number of wrinkles to be treated.
Safe
The procedure is cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). You wear protective eyewear during the treatment. The procedure is safe and there are very few, if any, side effects associated with this procedure.
Effective
Studies presented at major medical conferences show that wrinkles visibly improve with a single NLiteš treatment. Many people see results even before the full effect at about 90 days. Your physician may recommend a second treatment for optimal results.
FDA-Cleared
In January 2002, the FDA cleared the laser for the treatment of wrinkles. It is the first laser specifically cleared for non-ablative wrinkle reduction.
Collagen
Collagen is found as a layer of proteins beneath the surface skin. It is a major component of connective tissue that gives strength and flexibility to the skin. Loss of collagen can occur with age and contribute to the formation of wrinkles.
Versatile
NLite® is suitable for men and women of all ages and most skin types.
