The Skin Eclipse technology represents a significant advance in aesthetic and integrative medicine and combines four separate techniques to offer holistic care for skin and mental health. The methods included are electroporation, electrophoresis, chromotherapy and lithotherapy.
1. Electroporation uses short electric impulses to improve the skin’s permeability. This technique facilitates the absorption of the active substances applied to the epidermis, thus optimising the skin treatments.
2. Electrophoresis allows for the transdermal transfer of substances, such as lightening agents, to reduce pigmentation marks and improve the general condition of the skin. This method is particularly effective for evening out the complexion.
3. Chromotherapy uses photobiomodulation to achieve an anti-aging effect. The coloured light penetrates the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin elasticity. This makes the skin visibly firmer and younger-looking.
4. Lithotherapy uses a polished quartz to massage and relax the skin, in the same way as a massage therapist’s hands. This process helps to both improve the skin texture and deeply relax the patient. The soothing effect of lithotherapy is beneficial for reducing stress and improving overall wellbeing.
Many patients are open to lithotherapy and, if we look into its history, we see that stones have been known for their therapeutic properties since ancient times, and are as popular for their beauty as they are for their benefits for the skin. In Ancient Egypt, the goddess Isis used a rose quartz roller to lighten her complexion. Many ancient civilisations ground crystals into powder and used it to exfoliate their skin. Nowadays, we know that most skin ailments have a psychological origin, such as stress. This is why minerals can be a valuable ally against the stresses and strains of daily life. Thanks to their gentle and protective energy vibrations, crystals rebalance the body’s vital organs and soothe the mind, recovering the harmony required for wellbeing and happiness.
In my clinical practice, where I specialise in lifts using tensor threads and collagen inducers, it was a natural step for us to include the Skin Eclipse technology. Skin Eclipse’s combined techniques are an ideal complement to the techniques I carry out, significantly improving the skin’s radiance and the patient’s mental health from the very first session. This approach fulfils the current patient demand for global and holistic healthcare, which encapsulates both aesthetic and psychological aspects.
The Rafaël institute in Paris, a centre for integrative medicine, also uses this technology to help cancer patients. These patients benefit from aesthetic treatments that help to reduce the damaging effects that the illness has on their physical appearance and mental health. It is an essential holistic approach that fulfils the requirements of patients seeking effective treatments that benefit their skin and wellbeing.
