What is a Photo Facial?

March 20, 2012 By admin

 Light your Way to Beautiful Skin!! 

In the past two newsletters, I committed to writing more about our services and what we offer at Planet Beach League City. So, over the next few weeks, I’m going to focus on our services and why people enjoy them. This week, specifically, I’m going to talk a little about our Lumiere, or Photo Facial, treatment.

Lumiere, developed by a a company called Phototherapeutics, non-invasively improves the appearance of fine lines, skin tone, texture and overall clarity. Planet Beach’s Lumiere treatment, or “luminous facial” has been popular with our members since we introduced it in 2008, following the lead of our franchisor, Planet Beach Franchising Corp. The process uses concentrated red LED (light emitting diode) lights. The lights in our facial lamp are emitted at a wavelength of 633 nanometers, which accounts for their red color.

So, what are the benefits of Lumiere?

  1. It is effective and non-invasive. Customers have reported seeing improved skin tone, texture and overall appearance after just a few uses. In addition, there is no pain or down time.
  2. It is ideal for men and women of all skin types. Members have used our red light photo facials to treat symptoms associated with sagging or aging skin, skin discolorations, acne and more.
  3. It is convenient. A session lasts only 20 minutes, so our members literally come on their lunch break or after work.
  4. It is affordable. Many treatments people use to improve their skin’s overall appearance cost thousands of dollars, and the results do not last. The reason people like our red light phototherapy is that sessions are included in the membership. The only additional investment is the skin care products that are used in conjunction with this service, and a six-month supply of these products less than the cost for one high-end facial treatment, such as Botox or microdermabrasion. In addition, we do not employ aestheticians, which also brings down the cost of your investment with us even more.
  5. It is relaxing and private. Members enjoy much-needed along time when using this service and emerge feeling energized and refreshed.

Many of our members use our facial service on a weekly basis. Others use it as little as once or twice a month. If you’re already a spa member, hopefully, you’ve had the chance to try our Lumiere and are enjoying the results. It not, we encourage you to give it a try! Our friendly and knowledgeable spa consultants will be glad to talk with you about the benefits and schedule you for a service.

Now, for some quick housekeeping. How are we doing? Many of you have noticed how busy we’ve become lately, and we’ve been making plans to accommodate this growth. Over the next few weeks, we’ll continue to keep you updated on our plans to better serve you. One change we made recently is an investment in a new scheduling software, which we will begin fully utilizing on April 1. (Yes, we see the irony, too, but we don’t believe that date will be a bad omen!) Please continue to let us know how we can better serve you. Your comments are helping to make Planet Beach League City a better place for everyone.

We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and hope you make it a Great Week!

Photo Facials

March 30, 2011 By admin

Facials have long been considered a luxurious, yet beneficial treat.  The addition of red-light photo therapy to a facial regime is a relatively new concept that is producing lasting results for our clients.  Using LED (light emitting diode) red lights, red light photo therapy is used to renew collage and elastin production in the skin.  Prolonged use of red light therapy produces long-term results that are similar to microdermabrasion, chemical peals, botox and chemical peals, without the adverse side effects and complications.

Red light photo therapy is a non-invasive facial treatment that uses the skin’s own collage and elastin to help the skin repair itself.  Planet Beach Contempo Spa clients use this therapy with facial treatments that repair sun damage; prevent wrinkles; tone, tighten and firm the skin; eliminate scar tissue and discoloration and reduce the effects of acne and other related skin breakouts.  Clients can see results in as few as six treatments, and the treatments are quite affordable, compared with those offered at other day spas.
