BE YOUR OWN BEAUTICIAN

With technology becoming increasingly sophisticated, beauty conglomerates and brands are releasing state-of-the-age facial treatment devices that one can use without fuss in our own homes. One such is the Dr Dennis Gross’ DRx SpectraLite FaceWare Pro, a wrinkle-reducing and acne-fighting LED device for the entire face.

Like the LED light therapy treatment offered in dermatology clinics, the DRx SpectraLight FaceWare Prouses different wavelengths of light in red and blue LED lights to help rejuvenate the skin. You can adjust the treatment settings according to your needs; the red lights help reduce fine lines and wrinkles by penetrating deep within the skin’s dermis to stimulate collagen, while blue lights destroy bacteria that cause acne and reduce redness and inflammation. You can use either setting or, in tandem, for three minutes daily across 10 weeks for optimal results. To take it further, follow up each treatment session with a peel, serum and moisturiser.

While it does all the work for you, it doesn’t mean that you can slack off on your skincare routine. Think of the treatment as an additional step in your skincare regime that gives you that extra boost.
