Maria Hess, Péter Kőrösi, József Skárta, Krisztián Imre 1 Medical Observation 2010 Medical Observation at Dr. Ferenc Gódor’s Beauty Center 2 Medical Observation: Summary In 2010, Dr. Ferenc Gódor, a well-known dermatologist in Hungary, conducted a medical observation study for the purpose of skin rejuvenation with collagen fluorescent lamp technology. Background & Objective: Visible red light is an increasingly popular methodology for the purpose of skin rejuvenation. The objective was to clinically assess subject’s perception to red light therapy and the effect of collagen lamps on the participant’s skin and body. Method: Eighteen subjects with fine lines or wrinkles in the facial and/or décolleté area received 25 to 30 red light (633nm) lamp treatments (20 minutes per session, 2 x per week) using LightTech’s red fluorescent lamps. Results: All subjects responded positively to the red light exposure and reported a visible and felt improvement of their skin. 3 Opinions & Observations We started our Red Light Project in Hungary, cooperating with a local dermatologist. 18 clients started to use the red light bed with 32 red lamps. The therapy was scheduled for 30 sessions. All subjects used the bed 2 x per week for 20 minutes. The study took place in a dermatological clinic, where the doctors could examine the clients’ skin changes after each session. The study was thoroughly documents. Clients were photographed before and after 15-20 sessions. After 15-20 sessions clients were asked about their feelings, their opinions and the opinions’ of their relatives and friends. 4 Opinions & Observations (cont.) Questionnaire: Filled out by the dermatologist and clients after 20 and after 30 sessions to evaluate the skin changes and other results influencing the client’s health. Dr. Gódor’s first finding: After 4-5 sessions a positive change in the subjects’ skin condition occurred. Elasticity increased and skin was noticeably moist and had softened. The anti-aging effect was kicked-off, even if the wrinkles did not disappear, yet. Reaction of subjects: All users are satisfied with results in regards to skin energizing, relaxation and skin vitalization. 5 Before & After Photos Agnes, Budapest (Photo: after 23 sessions) “After about five sessions with the collagen bed I felt that my skin became much more soft, smooth and elastic. I never felt any pain after a session and my skin was never red or swollen, which was great as I could get back to work right away. Even my relatives and friends recognized the change in my skin and I already recommended everyone to try collagen beds as well. 6 Before & After Photos Agnes, Szentendre (Photo: after 23 sessions) “I feel the change but the surrounding people are giving my even more and stronger feedbacks about the change of my skin” 7 Before & After Photos Maria, Dunakeszi (Photo: after 20 sessions) “I am working in the beauty center as assistant so most of the therapies are available for me but none of them was so effective like this.” 8 Before & After Photos Zsuzsanna, Budapest (Photo: after 18 sessions) “I do not feel big change in the quality of my skin but no doubt that it’s relaxing to use the red bed.” 9 Before & After Photos Maria, Dunakeszi (Photo: after 22 sessions) “I was very skeptic at the beginning but now the pictures are speaking instead of me. And this is the most important!” 10 Additional Information The reached anti-aging result or effect may last about 30-90 days. Maintenance is crucial and vital for long-term success. Recommended are 2 sessions for 15 minutes after the basic therapy phase. Red light therapies with fluorescent lamps are free of pain, free of UV and have no reported side effect. Congenital skin defects such as warts, flecks, moles can not be treated. Red lamps are affordable vs. other anti-aging techniques. The rejuvenescence effect of red light fluorescent lamp technology is comparable to Lasers, IPL or LED treatment. Only cheaper, pain-free, natural and absolutely non-invasive! 11 Creams & Enhancing Light Therapy Products In March of year 2003 Association of US Dermatologists is proposed to use antioxidant creams and vitamins to increase effectiveness of body rejuvenescence and body cosmetics. Anti-oxidant creams (vitamins A, E, C, K and Alpha-Lipoic Acid) may be used after cleaning the skin either before or after a collagen light therapy. Further, the preuse of hyaluronic acid, acetyl hexapeptide-3 (argireline), ellagic acid and aloe creams may also enhance the desired anti-aging effect. For instance: Argireline is a synthetic anti-aging ingredient derived from natural proteins used as a topical alternative treatment to Botox. Hyaluronic acid is a substance that occurs in the body’s connective tissue. It provides lubrication as well as cushioning between the cells and was proven to be beneficial on the tone and texture of a healthy and hydrated looking skin. 12 Further Possible Red Lamp Applications Wound healing 13 Further Possible Red Lamp Applications Sport Performance Improvement 14 Péter Kőrösi’s “Own” Red Light (633nm) Test Results Péter Kőrösi, an employee at LightTech: “When I want to sell a product to my clients, I have to be convinced that it works.
