rejuvenation involves a variety of advanced applications of light
energy to
skin cells to revitalize and recondition skin health and appearance.

use light as the means of treatment. Science has proven that
the skin responds positively to the application of specific types
of light and that the cells of the skin can be stimulated to
assume a more normal function during the aging process.
