Radio Energy Therapies

So, as usual, I have been reading about the new technologies in the beauty industry. I am completely fascinated with the new technologies that have occurred over the past few years that are non-invasive surgeries.

Something that I have been reading up on is 'Radio Energy Therapies.' One of the new technologies is the Thermacool non surgical face lift by 'Thermage.' This company uses the new technology of radio energy to give someone a face lift. It is approved by the FDA and in just one treatment you look longer by reducing wrinkles, etc. Another technology introduced is the Hands by Thermage which tightens the skin in your hands. The reason why they wanted to do this for the hands is because over time, your hands get worn out. You use them all day long, typing, exercising, writing, picking things up, etc. So, by using a Capacitive Radio frequency beam, it uses heat to get to the deepest layer on your skin to provide long lasting improvement. One of the reasons why people use this hand procedure is because it only requires one visit, unlike laser treatments. It is a one time, non surgical procedure.

Radio energy therapies are used in traditional Chinese medicine practices. It China, they use this therapy to perform a traditional massage. They use it to influence the acupoints on the body to remove blockages and promote free flow throughout the body.

I mean, if I was given the opportunity to have a radio energy based massage I would definitely want to do it. Having someone not touch your body, but have the same effect and feel afterwards, or an even better feeling of relaxation, would be cool to experience. I think its really neat that these non-invasive procedures can happen, especially with the massages you can receive. As for the same with lasers, I find it fascinating that you can have treatments like this to remove or tighten something on your body that you do not like, and there is no in-patient procedure. I really am curious to see where these technologies are going.

The Technology of Beauty- Laser treatments

So, it took me awhile to figure out what exactly I wanted to blog about, but it came down to something that I am vary passionate about; Health/Beauty Products.

Woman and some men are always wanting to look younger and feel better about themselves as they age. You hear about more and more people going under the knife to make themselves look younger, but now all you need to do is get laser treatment.It is so incredible to me that a light put on your face or on a mark on your body can make you look younger, or be removed in a matter of minutes. And the most incredible thing about this all is that it doesn't involve any form of knife being cut into your skin.

There are different type of lasers such as the 'Fraxel Laser' which can build up your collagen by making it tighter, reducing the appearance of wrinkles, age spots, sun spots, etc. There is also the 'Titan Laser,' which is a face lift done by a laser. It uses light energy to target the dermis where collagen forms directly beneath the surface of the epidermis. It causes new collagen growth and helps tighten and firm the exciting collagen. Another form of laser treatment that blows my mind is the 'Pearl Fractional Laser." This laser is used for photo-aging. It is used for immediate and long term use by using a wavelength of light.

There are many different other forms for laser treatments but these three to me stand out. When you think about wanting to look younger and how about twenty years ago that was never an option, you can no just go get a light put on you to have whatever you want it to do! This technology to me is just amazing. The fact that people can go do a simple procedure such as these and go back to their everyday life as if nothing happened, is mind boggling. Granted- its expensive, but the fact that we have these procedures today is pretty cool to me. I question where laser treatments will be in ten years from now. It will definitely be around still, but maybe hospitals will use it more to do surgery's without using an actual knife. We will have to see.....
