| How Does it Work?
Beneficial sunlight is a primary source of cellular energy for most life forms on earth. The red spectrum light energy emitted from the StarLite® device is the same wavelength as the sun’s healing rays without the skin-damaging ultraviolet A and B wavelengths. The condensed light provided by the StarLite® low-level laser can stimulate cellular processes including more effective and faster cell renewal and the absorption of vital nutrients needed for repair. | | | | Visible light breaks down into a rainbow of colors. StarLite® is the same wavelength as the cold red segment of the spectrum and generates no heat, unlike surgical lasers which are higher on the scale. There is no heat or other physical sensation during or following laser use. The laser can even be used on sensitive skin without redness or irritation. Reduce the appearance of age spots, sun damage, fine lines and other effects of aging in the comfort of your own home without surgery, injections or pain. Use it for just 10-15 minutes a day. You will see an almost immediate softening of the skin as StarLite® begins its magical work. Try it on one side of your face and notice the difference. Small imperfections and scars will appear less rough and pronounced after a short time. Blemishes will show improvement in just a few days of use. If used on the lips, they become softer in a few minutes and
fuller over time. The effects of StarLite®’s light energy reveals more dramatic improvements in 7 to 30 days. The effect is cumulative up to about a 60-day time frame. After that point, continued, but less frequent use will help maintain your beautiful skin. | |

| There are more than 100 double-blind positive studies confirming the clinical effect of low level laser therapy and more than 2500 research reports published on the use and efficacy of low level lasers according to the Swedish Medical Laser Society. Here is a sampling to help you understand the subject better. A Structural Approach to Non-ablative Body Rejuvenation

Originally printed in:
US Dermatology Review 2006 - December 2005 “The trend in cosmetic surgery and dermatology has been away from ablative, or destructive, processes and toward technologies and techniques that spare tissue and promote growth. Unlike their ablative counterparts, non-ablative treatments require multiple sessions, but are well tolerated and require no downtime. With the increasing amounts of clinical data and scientific studies, the techniques of non- ablative rejuvenation, producing safe and effective treatments for an ever-growing population of aging patients, are being refined.

BACKGROUND: Multiple modalities have been described for skin rejuvenation, including ablative and nonablative therapies. Because of the prolonged recovery period associated with ablative procedures that injure the epidermis, nonablative skin treatments have grown increasingly popular. Various laser- and light-based systems have been designed or applied for promoting skin remodeling without damage to the epidermis. METHODS: Studies investigating the use of nonablative procedures for facial rhytids [wrinkles] or acne scarring with clinical, histological, and objective quantitative measurements are systematically reviewed. RESULTS: Nonablative treatments are associated with clinical and objective improvements for the treatment of facial rhytids and acne scarring. Dermal remodeling seems to occur as a result of thermal injury, leading to dermal fibrosis without epidermal disruption. CONCLUSIONS: Although results are not as impressive as those of ablative treatments, nonablative procedures are effective in the treatment of photoaging and acne scarring. As technology in nonablative therapies continues to evolve, future laser and light sources may yield even more favorable results.
Clinical, histologic, and ultrastructural changes after nonablative treatment with a 595-nm flashlamp-pumped pulsed dye laser: comparison of varying settings.

BACKGROUND: The flashlamp-pulsed dye laser has been used for nonablative dermal remodeling. OBJECTIVE: We conducted a study analyzing the clinical, histologic, and electron microscopic findings after treatment with different flashlamp-pulsed dye laser settingss in the same subject. RESULTS: Most subjects showed mild to moderate improvement after flashlamp-pulsed dye laser laser treatment. There was no statistical difference in the clinical, histologic, or electron microscopic findings with a variety of laser treatment settings. CONCLUSION: Nonablative dermal remodeling can be accomplished with not only a variety of different technologies, but also with the same laser using markedly different settings.
