DETOX^TM TREATMENT

A treatment performed before surgery to reduce the bacterial load and prepare the skin for surgery.

HOW IT WORKS

The Detox™ treatment utilizes blue light (417±10nm) to penetrate the skin and target sebaceous glands, where it triggers a powerful antimicrobial response.

Detox™ works by exciting naturally occurring porphyrins inside bacteria, leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS)—highly reactive molecules that destroy bacterial cells. By eliminating harmful bacteria and balancing oil production, Detox™ helps create a cleaner, healthier skin environment, reducing the risk of breakouts and post-procedure complications.

Key Benefits

Eliminates Acne-Causing Bacteria

The Elixir Detox™ Treatment's Blue Light technology effectively targets and reduces bacteria that cause acne vulgaris. This action helps lower skin inflammation, aiding in clearer skin.
Safe Pre-Surgery Skin Preparation

By emitting a specific light wavelength, the treatment plays a crucial role in pre-surgical care. It reduces bacterial load, oils, toxins, and skin secretions, creating a cleaner and more sterile surface for surgery.
Enhanced Post-Surgery Recovery

The treatment's ability to cleanse and sterilize the skin promotes safer surgical procedures and smoother recoveries. It significantly reduces the risk of post-surgical infections and complications.
