Bishop reports.
There’s a myriad of light therapies available for those looking to rejuvenate
the skin and counter the visible signs of ageing. With so many different
technologies available, determining the best skin treatment can sometimes
be a difficult decision.
This decision can be made easier, however, when there is a history of
predictable, consistent and effective results and clinical research backing a
certain therapy or device. Omnilux, distributed in Australia by True Solutions, is
one such device.
Omnilux is a light therapy that kick-starts the body’s natural processes to
reverse the signs of skin ageing and treat common skin conditions. Not only
is it backed by many years of medical research, it is used by more than 3,300
dermatologists and plastic surgeons worldwide and is documented in over 60
peer-reviewed publications. Simply put, Omnilux has a history of clinical success
that exceeds any other light therapy device.
By using Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to deliver specific wavelengths into the
skin, Omnilux triggers certain reactions in the epidermis and deeper dermis. This
is effective in achieving significant results – that are well documented – in skin
rejuvenation, acne treatment and anti-ageing.
Sydney cosmetic physician Dr Saras Sundrum has been using Omnilux in
her clinics for the past 10 years. ‘Omnilux is the only proven TGA-approved LED
device with years of research and written papers behind it,’ she says. ‘Our clients
love the non-invasive nature of it and the immediate results – it is very relaxing.’
The Omnilux system includes three different wavelengths: Omnilux Plus –
near infrared 833nm; Omnilux Revive – 633nm; and Omnilux Blue – 415nm.
The wavelength is selected depending on the concern being treated, and each
wavelength excites particular cellular activity in the dermis and epidermis to
promote healthy skin function.

Unlike other light systems, Omnilux delivers one precise wavelength per treatment
– compared to using multiple wavelengths in a single treatment. This means the
skin cells are stimulated in the same way throughout treatment, preventing any
cell confusion or counter-activity and delivering direct, consistent results.
This being the case, some practitioners do choose to alternate Omnilux
