The UFO 2 provides a unique addition to treatment menus with minimal impact on facial time
– Zoe Graham |
Swedish skin-tech company Foreo has upgraded its UFO LED light and thermotherapy device, which therapists can use before a facial to lock in extra hydration or which spas can retail, in an effort to give customers a refined and radiant complexion.
The UFO 2, launching in spas imminently, delivers thermotherapy (heat) to the skin five times faster than the first-generation model and is combined with cryotherapy and 10,000 T-sonic pulsations a minute to prep the skin for higher levels of dermal absorption.
Next, a Korean-formulated Power Activated Mask is secured onto the device and – for the first time – full-spectrum LED light – using up to eight different rays – can be used to stimulate different ingredients in the mask for a personalised service.
Red LED light can be used for anti-ageing, to activate cell regeneration, for example, while the selection of blue light destroys bacteria and can help with blemishes and green light can treat hyperpigmentation.
"The UFO 2 provides a unique addition to treatment menus with minimal impact on facial time [an application takes two minutes] and cost," says Foreo business development manager Zoe Graham. "It can stimulate the skin's dermal layers significantly better than hands alone."
