Opera LED Light + Galvanic Therapy Mask
The world renowned OPERA Mask is a low-level light therapy (LLLT) LED facial mask that utilizes 3 wavelengths to provide a multitude of skin rejuvenation treatments to the face and neck. The only LED Light Therapy mask with independent clinical studies, it also incorporates the use of galvanic micro-current, and nutrient filled hydrogel masks to further enhance results.
THE BENEFITS OF LED LIGHT THERAPY
The clinical benefits of LED (Light Emitting Diodes) treatment, often known as Low-Level Light-Therapy (LLLT), have been known for decades.
The OPERA mask emits a precise combination of LED light wavelengths, designed to provide optimum treatment. All the LED modes utilize Infra-Red light (830nm) in combination with visible light of selectable wavelength
The 830nm infra-Red light is invisible to the naked eye, but will penetrate deeper than other colors in the spectrum, leading to increased blood flow. This increased blood flow delivers elevated levels of oxygen and nutrients to the face and neck whilst helping remove waste products, and has effects such as:
• Combating the signs of aging [1][2][3][4]
• Nourishing the dermal and deeper lying epidermal cells[5][6][7][8][9]
• Accelerating the healing process [10][11][12]
In addition to the infra-red 830nm wavelength light emission, the OPERA can be programmed to emit either a red light of 630nm wavelength, a blue light of 415nm, or a combination of the two – a purple light of 415nm and 630nm wavelength.
630nm Red light is clearly visible to the naked eye and reaches deep into the skin layers. It causes a rejuvenation effect by stimulating collagen production, promoting cellular repair and increasing circulation; making the skin look more youthful.
415nm blue light is also visible to the naked eye and is proven to have anti-bacterial properties. These properties result in the destruction of bacteria such as those causing acne. The blue light also helps purify the skin, stabilize oil secreting glands and calm inflammation.[13][14][15][16][17][18]
Combining the two visible lights with the Infra-red allows treatment of complex skin conditions. (415nm, 630nm and 830nm) The mask operates at both wavelengths and then combines the two wavelengths for visible purple light. This purple light combines the properties of both the blue and the red light meaning a combined Acne and skin rejuvenation program.[19]
Galvanic Treatment & Hydrogel Mask
The Opera LED Light Therapy Mask features a GALVANIC MICRO-CURRENT function. The inside of the mask is fitted with removable galvanic ports / prongs which attach to the inside of the mask. These prongs sit on top of the skin’s surface and work by delivering a low level current to the 3 layers of skin.
The Galvanic mode delivers minute electrical pulses (micro-currents) designed to mirror the body’s own bio-electric field. This serves a dual purpose, as the current stimulates facial toning and the advantages of skin tightening and rejuvenation. All major muscles are tighten so the face looks reawaken and lifted.
The Galvanic treatment also works to improve blood flow and lymphatic drainage to the face, acting as an internal cleanser for the skin and helping to remove impurities. The current creates a positive charge which attracts and breaks up negatively charged toxins and impurities. These toxins and impurities would otherwise block glands and by removing them the face is left clean and nourished.
The impurities and toxins are removed by the body’s own immune systems and by cleansing the face after treatment. Thus the treatment simultaneously increases blood supply to the skins surface, delivering oxygen and nutrients to the cells while removing waste which helps to purify the skin.
An integral aspect of the Galvanic current treatment is the application of a unique Hydrogel mask (10 Hydrogel Masks are included with the Opera LED Light Therapy Mask, additional Hydrogel Masks may be purchased separately). The galvanic current passes through the Hydrogel Mask and massages the thick water based ‘gel’, and/or other customized skincare formulations, deep into the skins epidermis which has an ‘ultra’ hydrating effect. The therapy helps more of the ingredients pass through the skin’s barrier and penetrate deeper than would otherwise be the case, leading to wrinkle reduction and plumping and nourishment of the skin.
In summary Galvanic treatments benefits are:
• Skin nourishment
• Skin cleansing
• Toning of facial muscles, decreasing wrinkles
• Restoration of sun-damaged skin
In conjunction with the LED treatment the results are obviously further enhanced.
PRODUCT DETAILS
The world renowned OPERA LED Light Therapy Mask is the original LED mask and is a reputable, leading, worldwide brand.
The state of the art OPERA LED technology used within the OPERA LED Light Therapy Face Mask is scientifically proven to rejuvenate the skin by achieving specific wavelengths of LED light exposure.
This, combined with an additional galvanic mode, promotes the ultimate luxury facial that works at CELLULAR level for immediate and long lasting results!
The OPERA Mask has been used, and endorsed by celebrities across the world, such as Leanne Brown, Alex Gerrard, Jessica Alba and celebrity dermatologist Shani Darden. The mask is backed UK key opinion leader’s – Harley Street’s Surgeon and specialist Aesthetic Doctor, Dr. Sherif Wakil and “Skin Warrior” Emma Bennett.
As well as appearing on the Real Housewives of Cheshire and Orange County, and Showtime’s Billions. The OPERA LED Light Therapy Face Mask has also been publicized by major media powerhouses worldwide including Vogue, Harpers Bazaar, Us Weekly, etc. The OPERA Mask also made a star studded appearance on the Oscars 2017 red carpet.
LED’s provide a mechanism for Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) or “Photo Bio-stimulation” – also called ‘Phototherapy’. The effects of Phototherapy and LLLT are photochemical. When the correct intensity and frequency are used, the light energy photons, generated by the LED light sources, are absorbed by select chromophores in the tissue. This process stimulates mitochondrial activity and Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) production; promotes blood circulation and tissue oxygenation, leading to pain relief and cell proliferation, and facilitating the creation and extension of the anti-aging enzymes.
The OPERA LED Light Therapy Mask emits wavelengths in the non-visible infra-red light 830nm, visible red 630nm, blue 415nm, and pink light 415nm + 630nm that penetrate the skin at varying depths to cause a specific and desired response. The benefits of Low-Level Light Therapy are numerous and depend upon the wavelength of the light being absorbed. Put another way, blue light in the 415nm range of the spectrum has completely different effects on the tissues than red light in the 630nm range.
The primary effect of LLLT (Low Level Laser Therapy) occurs when light is absorbed in ‘cytochrome c oxidase’ a protein within the mitochondria of each cell.
When cells get stressed (perhaps due to disease, injury or ageing) the mitochondria produces nitric oxide (NO). This competitively displaces oxygen from the mitochondria, consequently reducing ATP (an essential intracellular cellular energy and extracellular signaling molecule) and causing an over production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which leads to oxidative stress. Oxidative stress increases inflammation and cell death via the gene transcription factor NF-Kb.
Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) of the correct wavelength and density, dissociates Nitric Oxide allowing oxygen back into the cell, so ATP is restored and oxidative stress reduced.
Once normal mitochondrial function is restored by LLLT then cell metabolism improves, and the cells normal function is restored.
The Science behind the ‘OPERA’ LED Face Masks and LED LIGHT
How OPERA LED light therapy aids the recovery process:
The OPERA mask has been years in the making – to ensure the final product maximizes the clinical benefit for the user.
Initially marketed under the MILUX trade name, research was performed by the “Korean Institute for Skin and Clinical Sciences” and published on March 16.
Numerous studies (PubMed currently registers 5352 studies on Low-Level Light Therapy) have demonstrated the positive effects LED light therapy provides as a mechanism for LLLT has on the body’s own natural recovery by speeding up cellular metabolic activity. The LED lights in the OPERA Mask help to aid the recovery process via exposure of the skin particularly if the skin in the area is damaged.
The effects of Photo-therapy and LLLT are photochemical. When the correct intensity and frequency are used, the light energy photons, generated by the LED light sources, are absorbed by selected chromophores in the tissue. This process stimulates mitochondrial and Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) production; promoting blood circulation and tissue oxygenation, leading to a reduction in inflammation, increased lymphatic flow and cell proliferation, while also facilitating the creation and extension of the anti-aging enzymes ultimately resulting in wrinkle, skin rejuvenation, toning, tightening and texturing.
Among clinical applications, non-healing wounds can be healed through restoring the collagenase imbalance and normal wounds heal faster when treated with light-emitting diodes resulting in less obvious scarring.[20][21][22][23][24]
The OPERA Mask’s Light emitting diodes (LEDs) help to increase the production of the skins protein collagen, which helps improve skin rejuvenation including reducing redness, dryness and inflammation.
The specific wavelengths used in the OPERA Mask also stimulates the movement of macrophage cells. Macrophage cells are a type of white blood cell that work by engulfing and digesting cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes and anything else that does not have the types of proteins specific to healthy body cells. They also play a critical role in nonspecific defense (innate immunity) and also help initiate specific defense mechanisms (adaptive immunity) by recruiting other immune cells such as lymphocytes.
Another great response to OPERA LED light is skin proliferation (growth of new tissue) and increased angiogenesis, which refers to the formation of new blood vessels. This process controls and manipulates blood flow to the site of the injured tissue which helps to form and remodel vascular structures.
In short, the specific wavelengths of LED light used within the OPERA Mask has a profound effect when addressing cellular growth and repair but importantly does not directly change the compound of each cell, it has a stimulating effect, therefore is completely non- invasive.
How The Opera Mask LED light therapy aids skin recovery:
As a result of LEDs ability to increase metabolic activity within the cells, LED’s have a positive effect on the bodies natural skin recovery process. Not only has the OPERA LED Light Therapy Mask proven to help reduce muscular pain and it’s related effects, it also helps to directly aid the recovery process.
Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) helps to increase the production of collagen, a key protein that is a building block of the skin and one which is required for skin repair, including reducing redness, dryness and inflammation. The Opera LED Mask also stimulates the movement of macrophage cells, a type of white blood cell that works by engulfing and digesting cellular debris, foreign substances, microbes and anything else that shouldn’t be present and does not have the proteins specific to healthy body cells. These macrophages also play a critical role in non-specific defense (innate immunity) and also help initiate specific defense mechanisms (adaptive immunity) by recruiting other immune cells such as lymphocytes. Beyond increasing inflammation and stimulating the immune system, macrophages also play a critical anti-inflammatory role and can decrease immune reactions through the release of cytokines. Macrophages that encourage inflammation are called M1 macrophages, whereas those that decrease inflammation and encourage tissue repair are called M2 macrophages. This difference is reflected in their metabolism; M1 macrophages have the unique ability to metabolize arginine to the “killer” molecule Nitric Oxide (NO), whereas rodent M2 macrophages have the unique ability to metabolize arginine to the repair molecule ornithine.
Another beneficial cellular response to LED light is skin proliferation (growth of new tissue) and increased angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels). This process controls and manipulates blood flow to the site of injured tissue within the body which is a prerequisite to form and remodel vascular structures.
In short, the Opera LED Light Therapy Mask has a stimulating effect the produces a profound impact on all aspects of cellular growth and repair, this without directly changing the compound of each cell. Therefore this therapy is risk-free and completely non-invasive.
The LED and Galvanic therapies can be delivered together (sequentially) or as completely separate treatments; giving you even more scope for more treatment variety and a greater return on investment.
