Fountain of Youth Body Treatment

After spending a week at the beach and definitely getting too much sun, I decided it was time for a visit to Alamance Esthetics to undo some of the damage. Alamance Esthetics has recently added body treatments to their list of services, so I decided to try the Stem Cells Phyto-Elite Intensive Body Contouring Wrap along with a Hydrafacial. I loved the whole experience and have scheduled another appointment already! As we age, it’s so important to take the best care of our skin…and not just facial skin. It feels great to take a day for self care…you’ll be so glad you did! Keep reading to find out a little more about my experience at Alamance Esthetics!

What is a Stem Cells Phyto-Elite Intensive Body Contouring Wrap?

This 3-in-1 exfoliating, contouring, and regenerating wellness experience, infuses your skin with the latest de-aging actives and natural plant stem cells blended with green coffee, avocado, shea butter and other potent ingredients. Proven to dissolve unwanted fat and cellulite deposits while reducing skin sagging and repairing sun damage,

Your treatment begins with toning and lifting body-brushing to release trapped fluids and exfoliate the skin. A trouble-zone targeted, firming Pevonia stem cell body wrap is next. You will enjoy a stress-relieving scalp massage while relaxing in this supremely hydrating wrap. The wrap is removed with warm towels to prepare your skin for a luxurious application of nourishing, contouring hydration.

After I was wrapped in the body wrap, I fell asleep. It was a very relaxing afternoon.

I’ve been getting Hydrafacials for quite a while now and swear by them for the best looking skin. One of the things that is included at Alamance Aesthetics when you get a Hydrafacial is Celluma Red Light Therapy. I’m positive that I slept through the whole thing…I vaguely remember the light changing but nothing else. I think I needed the relaxation as much as the treatments! Read more about Celluma Red Light Therapy below…

What is Celluma Red Light Therapy?

…the application of specific wavelengths of light energy to human tissue to obtain therapeutic benefits, Celluma ranges from 465 nanometers to 880 nanometers. With this range of light therapy we are treating everything from acne, and wrinkles to wound and bone healing.

Red wavelengths penetrate deep into the skin’s dermal layer to specifically target cells at the source. The energy absorbed by the cells is then used to naturally improve cellular performance.

Low-level light therapy is delivered through light emitting diodes (LEDs), and it has the potential to treat a variety of skin and pain conditions.

How does red light therapy work?

Like plants absorb sunlight to power photosynthesis and boost tissue growth, human cells can absorb light wavelengths to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. Red light therapy also boosts circulation to deliver oxygen and nutrients to living tissues.

In other words, human cells can absorb particles of light (photons) and transform that energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main source of energy that cells need to power metabolic processes. The resulting elevation of ATP is then used to upregulate cellular performance and repair tissue damage.

When your body absorbs particular wavelengths of light energy, it converts that energy to produce more ATP, thus boosting the body’s natural ability to regain and maintain vitality.

What can red light therapy do?

Red light therapy is constantly being tested and trialed to evaluate its efficacy for a number of different treatments, and the FDA currently recognizes light therapy as a proven solution for acne, anti-aging, and pain management.
