Tamaki Amajiki x Reader
Buy me a coffee!! <3
It was always refreshing to show off your wings - you adored the stunned, utterly spellbound looks you received, as they shimmered beautifully in the sunlight. Yours was a transformation quirk, pertaining to butterflies. The wings that sprouted magnificently from your back were multi-coloured, seeming to change between shades, depending on your mood, or the intensity of the light. You could use them to fly, but they were delicate. They also appeared to let off an ethereal glow, illuminating any suffocating darkness, much like a torch or a blazing fire. When they fluttered, you could manipulate the wind, which made you a powerful opponent. Bright antennae protruded from your head, which you used to feel around, and, oddly enough, heighten your overall senses.
Nejire, your beloved sister, had a formidable wind quirk - an emitter type, which you loved watching her use. You thought the world of her, and often complimented her fighting technique and costume. She would always grin and return the gesture. You were in the same class throughout the entirety of your high school career, and you got along quite well with one of her closer friends. However, you hung around a different circle, and a certain butterfly enthusiast had never actually seen your quirk for himself. One day, when Nejire caught him staring intently at you, she informed him about your power. After that, he really wanted to see it, but was far too nervous to ask you for a demonstration, despite knowing that you would probably be more than happy to provide one.
So, when the whole class was forced outside to carry out some intense training, he decided to study you. From a distance, of course, because his crippling anxiety refused to let him get close to you. The teacher had everyone huddle together in a tight circle, with a large gap in the middle. He called you to the front, telling you to activate your quirk. You complied, showing off your massive, colourful wings, and antennae. The few of your peers who had been in the dark about your power gasped, their eyes widening. Tamaki was in this minority, and as he observed you, he made note of the shy way in which you tucked a stray lock of hair behind your ear, and the tiny smile that graced your lips. There was a timid, yet playful glint in your eyes. He felt his face heating up, the red quickly spreading to his cheeks and neck. He had always thought you were beyond beautiful before, but now, he was certain.
You were a goddess.
"Very good. Thank you, (L/n)." Your teacher said, allowing you to deactivate your quirk, and walk out of the circle.
Standing beside Tamaki, were his best friend, and your sister. The bluenette watched as her shy friend ducked his head, quietly shuffling away from your figure. She smiled mischievously, elbowed Mirio, and pointed at him, then at you. Both individuals wore a wide smirk, and they waltzed up to Tamaki, whistling and acting innocent.
Nejire cupped a hand around her mouth, whispering, "You like her, don't you?"
His face erupted. "W-What do you m-mean?"
"(Y/n)." Mirio chimed in, mimicking a dreamy voice, then laughing afterwards, prompting Tamaki to attempt to shield his face from all the negative attention.
Your sister giggled. "I can bring her over here. She'll talk to you!"
Before Tamaki could vocalise his many protests, Nejire had bounded up to you, engulfing you in a bone-crushing hug. She leaned into your ear, whispering something neither male could hear. You smiled sweetly, almost causing the ebony-haired teenager to faint. You then followed your sister to where they were situated, waving politely and striking up a conversation with Mirio. The blonde was eager and had a lot to talk about, but all Tamaki could focus on was your voice. It sounded like a choir of angels, singing a heavenly tune, so pure that it might reverse all the sins of humanity. Your lips, he noticed, looked plump and adorable. The gentle dents in your cheeks when you smiled sent his mind into a frenzy. Mirio said something Tamaki didn't hear, and pointed you in the direction of the severely anxious male.
Your steps were light and calculated, and you moved with the same delicacy as a butterfly landing on a flower petal. He strained to imagine how your lips would feel on his. You didn't look much like a fighter, but you were probably fierce. He wondered if you would apply the same strategy to a kiss - would it be forceful and rough, or tender and loving? Either way, he figured that he wouldn't mind. He had a sudden desire - an urge - to find out everything about you.
He seemed to be in a trance-like state, and didn't respond to the sound of your voice, nor your weird hand movements. Stealing a confused glance at Nejire and Mirio, only to get a thumbs up in return, you sighed, then proceeded to prod Tamaki's shoulder. Immediately, he appeared to snap out of his fantasy, staring at you with wide, bewildered eyes, that were overflowing with curiosity, timidity, and for some reason, guilt.
"Um...Amajiki?" You asked, watching as he began to tremble.
This alarmed you, especially when he only managed to stutter a response.
"Are you okay? Your face is red. Do you need to see Recovery Girl?" You questioned, trying to feel his forehead.
He stepped back. "No..." He whispered. "I-It's just..."
"Amajiki?" You clapped your hands together. "Nejire told me that you like butterflies?"
He nodded hesitantly.
"That's great! They're really amazing! My favourites are-" You started rambling on about facts and figures, overwhelming him with your extensive knowledge.
This was good; he wanted to learn more about you, and this way, he didn't really have to talk too much. He was free to listen to the sound of your voice, loving the way it almost lulled him to sleep.

Underneath the Underneath [2/?]
Temporary Blanket Disclaimer
First Chapter
AN: Not edited yet. Honestly, I’m just amazed I could write something this week with how brain-dead I’ve been feeling. Here’s hoping things calm down soon so I can get back to my stories!
AN2: Also, I got the opening scene from a comic I saw somewhere here on tumblr. Can’t remember the artist, but if someone finds it, let me know so I can credit that person as inspiration here.
“Oh, you beautiful lady…you’re amazing.”
Hana Inuzuka freezes in mid-step, halfway through the door into the back room of her uncle’s veterinary, wondering if she’s hearing things.
“You are just gorgeous,” the voice continues, warm affection colouring the words.
A frown on her face, she peeks farther into the room and then has to resist the urge to smack her palm into her forehead. Kakashi Hatake is crouched in front a small pen, where one of the Inuzuka hounds is curled up with her puppies, congratulating the dog.
“Women all over Konoha would literally kill to have you say stuff like that to them, but you reserve it for the dogs,” she remarks as she wanders into the room and begins checking charts. She’s only an intern, but it’s generally accepted that as soon as her formal veterinary training is complete, she’ll be in charge of the place.
“Dogs I get,” the masked man replies, not budging from where he’s scratching the mother dog behind the ears. “People are weird.” The animal makes a noise of agreement, tongue lolling out in amusement, and he pats her once more before straightening up. “So, how’s the patient?”
He’s referring to Bull, one of his ninken, who is in the quarantine room sleeping off anesthesia from a recent procedure.
“He’ll be fine,” Hana says. “Uncle Kōga says the treatment was a complete success and there aren’t any poisonous toxins left. But take it easy with him for a bit. No missions and plenty of rest and fluids.”
“I’ll tell the rest of the back the same, then.”
“And I want him back here in two weeks for a follow up. No excuses.”
Kakashi is notorious for being late or absent for most appointments, and she shoots him her most challenging glare. Considering she perfected it staring down three giant wolf hounds, she knows how impressive it is. Grown men have been reduced to tears at the sight of it.
But Kakashi just snorts.
“No sense in arguing, I guess. Seems like that’s a theme with your family.”
Hana blinks. “Huh?”
“I met your sister the other day,” Kakashi says mildly. “She’s…certainly a character.”
“That’s the nicest anyone’s ever put that before,” she replies, raising an eyebrow.
“Maybe unusual is a better descriptor,” he corrects. “What made her choose demolitions over working here with you?”
Hana continues to frown at him in confusion. She’s a little unsure, considering Kakashi doesn’t really talk to her much beyond matters related to his ninken. He’s not the type to waste words, and so small-talk seems very out of character for him. At least based on the observations of a completely objective bystander.
Eventually, she shrugs.
“She has her reasons,” she says. “Let’s call them philosophical differences and a stubborn streak, depending on who you ask.”
“I’ll take your word on that. Still, it’s interesting. There aren’t many Inuzuka who aren’t actively part of Konoha’s defensive forces, right?”
His tone is casual enough, but Hana has been a shinobi long enough to recognise even an informal interrogation. The question is…why? It’s common knowledge that her twin dropped out of shinobi training after her failed Chūnin Exam. There are records of that which anyone—especially a former ANBU operative like Kakashi—could find if they looked. And he doesn’t take interest in people without some actual purpose.
“It helps that she has a natural talent for being destructive,” Hana says, noncommittal.
“I believe that,” he says with a nod. “She gave me a few of her explosive tags to try.” Hana’s eyebrows shoot towards her hairline at this. “If I hadn’t been as fast as I am, I’d have lost a limb.”
“She gave them to you?”
“Yes?”
“For free?”
“No. To test out for her,” he says slowly, and then frowns. “But from your reaction I take it that’s significant somehow?”
“For Manako, sharing explosives is kind of like giving someone a friendship bracelet,” Hana informs him.
“What exactly did you do?”
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” Kakashi says abruptly, suddenly straight-backed and tense. He seems alarmed; she’s not sure how she knows it, because his entire face is covered, but he is.
Well, his hair kind of looks agitated, anyhow. Maybe that’s it?
Kakashi rubs the back of his head, almost sheepish, and edges to the door. “Anyhow. I have to check something. I’ll be back tomorrow morning to pick up Bull.”
“And then again two weeks to check up on him,” Hana agrees.
“Right!”
He vanishes into thin air.
“Because that wasn’t weird at all,” Hana says, making a mental note to ask Manako what that was all about the next time she sees her.
はたけ
“So, your new friend came by,” Hana begins apropos of nothing. She stands in her sister’s tiny kitchen, picking through a box of yakisoba and trying not to wrinkle her nose at the unwashed dishes in the sink.
Manako peers at her, a mouthful of noodles spilling over her mouth like she’s some kind of mutant jellyfish.
“Oo?” she mumbles, confused for a moment before her eyes light of. “Oh! A gah wih ah heh?”
She makes a demonstrative, up-and-down motion meant to mimic the masked jōnin’s hair, and Hana sniggers.
“Yeah, that’s the one. Though most people would recognise him just by the name.” Hana watches her carefully. “Looks like you made another wonderful impression on someone.”
Manako swallows.
“It’s what I do.”
“I guess it could be worse…Thanks to you, I have a stellar reputation around here. Everyone thinks I’m the good one.”
“It’s not my fault you’re boring.”
“Better boring than misanthropic.”
“You work with animals all day, you don’t get to pass judgement on my judgement of stupid people until you’ve worked in retail,” Manako reminds her.
“You’re the one who didn’t want to go into the family business.”
Her twin shoots her a single, unimpressed glare as though to remind her they are straying dangerously close to a topic that is not to be spoken of.
Hana dutifully changes the subject. “So, what do you think of him?”
“Who?”
“Kakashi.”
Manako shoots Hana a funny look. “Why would I think anything of him?”
“It’s not every day of the village’s most prolific shinobi walk into your shop. He could be good for business. Especially if you ever want to take over the place officially.”
“I doubt it. He didn’t come in to buy anything, he was just avoiding someone,” Manako points out. “That taijutsu master that has a thing for bodysuits, I think.”
Hana sniggers. “Gai? Yeah, I can see that.”
“That man exhausts me just existing within the same country as me,” Manako shakes her head.
“You can say that again…”
“Anyway, I took pity on broom-head and let him hang out for a bit.”
“And convinced him to test out your explosive tags, from what I heard,” Hana remarks innocently. “That’s impressive. Especially considering how famous the guy is for avoiding work. How sure are you that he’s actually going to do it?”
“Pretty damn sure. It’s all about knowing what people like,” Manako replies easily.
“Oh, ew, do I even want to know?”
“Probably not.”
Hana squints at her, trying to see beyond the casual tone figure out if her sister is joking or not. Manako doesn’t have the same reservations about certain behaviours as Hana does; she’s like Kiba and their mother in that respect. At the same time, she sets high standards for the people she gets close to.
And if she’s looking at this guy as friend material…
Hana chooses to tread carefully. Manako tends to be very guarded about her relationships, and even alluding to any serious interest in another person, whether it be a friend or something more, might cause her to torpedo that new relationship.  
Especially since what happened with Izumi.
Sadness creeps over Hana. She was never as close to the Uchiha girl as Manako was—they weren’t teammates, after all—but they were peers at the Academy. What happened to her was horrible.
Since then, Manako has been even pricklier than she was growing up, utterly isolated from everyone except Hana and Kiba.
But if she’s showing even this little bit of interest in being friends with someone? Even someone as weird as Kakashi Hatake?
Hana considers the very odd situation for a moment, and then nods to herself.
That settles it. Jōnin or not, the man has the emotional maturity of a fourteen-year-old boy, so at least they’d be on the same level, mentally. And he’s trained to deal with difficult cases, right? Being friends with Manako shouldn’t be too difficult to him.
Kakashi’s hypothetical feelings on the matter don’t factor into it, of course. Hana has a duty as the older sister to look out for her younger siblings.
Even if one of them is only three minutes younger.
“Well…as long as it wasn’t anything too weird,” Hana muses out loud, keeping an eye on her sister’s reactions. “I mean, it’s hard to tell with that mask of his, but he doesn’t look like he has much fun otherwise.”
“Nah,” Manako dismisses, waving her chopsticks. “He gets along with dogs. Dogs are fun. And he reads. So he probably has some vague idea about fun.”
“Things are so simple for you, aren’t they?”
“Life is way too complicated as it is. Keeping things simple keeps them real.”
“We’re shinobi, everything’s pretty real.”
“Speak for yourself. Proud dropout here. Maybe that’s why I don’t have to torture myself with in-depth philosophical issues.”
“At least not until the next family dinner.”
Manako snorts in annoyance.
They eat in silence for a bit.
“They tell stories about him, you know,” Hana says after a while, in a quieter and less jokin tone now. “The things he’s done…what he’s seen…”
“Eh, I bet he’s just as hoity-toity as any other jōnin,” Manako dismisses. “Though, he’s got some questionable reading preferences, so maybe not that stuck-up.”
“How do you know what he reads?” Hana asks, not so innocently.
“Because I’m blackmailing him to test out my equipment. Why the hell else do you think I’d give him free explosives?”
“Manako!”
“Well, it’s not exactly blackmail,” Manako considers. “It was more withholding a book he wanted to read. But then again, I did threaten him with spoilers, so maybe blackmail is the right way to put it.”
“I don’t know whether to be disappointed in you for blackmailing an elite shinobi, or to be disappointed in him for his terrible taste in literature. Especially if he’s borrowing something from you.”
“Don’t pretend like you’ve never read a romance novel in your life.”
“Romance, yes, soft-core pornography? Not really.”
“Prude.”
“Pervert.”
“Bitch.”
“Assface.”
“You realise we’re twins, right? You just insulted yourself.”
“It depends on the ass,” Hana sniffs. “Mine is nicer than yours.”
“Oh, screw that!” Manako cries, tossing her unfinished yakisoba on the counter and twisting to point at her posterior. “See this? This is gorgeous. It’s got all that padding that you’ve trained away.”
“So, what you’re saying is…you have a fat ass.”
Her sister growls and lunges at her.
つづく
Yes, I know it wasn’t terribly shippy, but I did warn you all that Kakashi and Manako’s relationship is really slow burn. It takes place over the course of years, and barring the minor failure of the Bechdel test in this chapter, neither character really thinks overly much about the other at this point in time.
Also, I realised that I’ve never really spent much time on Hana before, barring that one chapter in Unplanned. And I’ve never written her and Manako together, and I figure it’s time. Also, everyone thinks Hana is the good one…when she is clearly much more conniving than her sister, hee hee.
Comments and constructive criticism are much appreciated, and very motivating—and if you enjoy my writing, check out my original stories as they are posted on patreon!

The feelings and ideas of the artist will also be taken into consideration. Art has been described as tool and the vehicle for the communication or expression of emotions and thoughts.

photographer rights
fotograf "That's a terrific picture, you must have an incredibly good digital camera!" This sort of is the perception of most who don't actually know anything in regards to taking pictures. It's about the same common sense as expressing "that was a great meal, you need to have an excellent cooktop!" After you have been a photographer for many years (and even marketing taking photos products for a while) I've heard this document many times. Whenever I was trying to sell, consumers would consistently arise with me and say similar documents. Usually the one I possibly heard one of the most was "My pal Tom features a [put in camera title in this article] high-end camera and he receives great images so I wish to choose the same 1. Practically with out fall short the same stated buyer would come rear a couple of weeks afterwards whining since "one thing should be bad with all the digital camera you available me for the reason that pictures aren't as effective as Tom's." I might constantly respond with "may well I see the high-end camera?" and would then find out if they minded generally if i got a handful of images. I would personally place the digital camera either in aperture concern option or guidebook, change the settings based on the picture which i wished to produce, touch the shutter link, and after that display the consumer the picture. They could usually follow-up with something like "Seriously, that appears wonderful, how come my pictures don't seem that very good?" Which I would commence the very long talk about how exactly I take advantage of a digicam as a instrument to make the style I want rather then simply being dependent on a high-end camera to carry out the many contemplating in my opinion. Due to peoples, typically erroneous, thinking about taking photos I've decided to develop a selection of 101 factors that many of us have to employ a expert digital photographer instead of according to their "close friend using a wonderful digital camera." This checklist - in no unique purchase - is mainly centered on photography but can include any sort of taking pictures. A Professional Photographer 1. creates images, he doesn't obtain a photo and "expect it will come out." 2. has invested years studying every facet of setting up a photos. 3. is familiar with which camera lens to implement by which circumstance. 4. is able to set your camera for your consistent appearance no matter what area (wedding, party, outdoors, etc.) 5. understands how to correctly utilize a flash for gentle, even lighting effects. 6. knows when you should use several flashes to make a stunning scenario. 7. is able to generate a landscape appear "normal" instead of like he was by using a flash whatsoever. 8. is aware what aperture to set his camera lens to for that seem that will make you peer the perfect. 9. is aware of what shutter speed to set to grab the background gentle, create the sensation of motion, or freeze out an item set up. 10. will sometimes devote a few hours retouching one photograph to ensure it is ideal. 11. is familiar with when you should use out high-end camera lights (strobes) to develop a certain seem or equally lighting a small group of people today or possibly a bedroom. 12. manages specialist equipment. 13. has put in about the same amount or higher for *each individual* lenses which he owns than he have for his digital camera human body. 14. operates several digicam body in case of tools malfunction. 15. understands to backup his photographs to many spots to protect yourself from personal computer accident problems. 16. has put in considerably more on add-ons Backdrops , Mild Stands , Remote Controls for Flash , Storage area Cases , Umbrellas , Tripods , Tripod Heads , and so on.) than he performed on his digital camera(s). 17. spends a good deal of time and money creating a web page, promoting, and advertising and marketing. 18. will gladly invest several many hours achieving to you, addressing issues, emailing, going through every detail of the wedding ceremony, scouting the area(s), etcetera. to guarantee that it is all totally accomplished the way you want to buy. 19. will talk about a "picture collection" together with you in order that practically nothing, or no person gets left out. (You will know you've acquired an granddad Joe, however, your professional photographer doesn't if you do not explain to him.) 20. are going to be professional about consuming shots in the new bride and bridesmaids as they are getting all set. 21. knows how to straight multiple people to be photographed to make sure that every person looks fantastic (no closed down eye, yawns, men and women concealed associated with other individuals, and so on.) 22. won't be having on the reception like grandfather Joe. 23. is able to seize the time. (not when you're drawing outside the very first kiss but appropriate when your lips contact) 24. is able to put together a marriage album in order that it not simply demonstrates good images, but explains an incredible scenario. 25. understands how to match colour of his display lighting effects into the colour of the background gentle (tungsten, phosphorescent, out-of-doors within the color, etc.) 26. will keep on top of the most recent trends in taking photos styles to make sure that he has the capacity to supply whatever that a customer may want. (feel red red wine glasses with a black and white track record ) 27. maintains track of the most current electronic editing and enhancing tools in order to make unique and customized artwork so that you can delight in. 28. can snap motion picture. 29. has been doing this well before. He's not in your wedding ceremony to "process his photography" 30. will permit your invitee be a visitor. Granddad Joe would actually have the ability to experience the wedding ceremony rather than staying burned out about ensuring he becomes all the pics which he feels you have to have. 31. will typically invest close to 5 time Just before the wedding event in preparation, and in between 40 and 60 hours Following the wedding ceremony enhancing pics, making designs, framework, developing slideshows, producing wedding party albums, affirming orders, speaking with the clinical, and so on.

Does LED Light Therapy Really Improve Skin?
When I first heard about the use of LED light therapy as a treatment for rejuvinating skin, I was intrigued. It seemed like an effective way to get glowy and younger-looking skin without needles—plus, celebrity facialist Joanna Vargas famously created an LED light bed that's Vogue-approved and sought-after by A-listers, so it had to be good.
But my interest was really piqued when I learned that LED light had the power to help banish blemishes and breakouts (my problem skin is basically the bane of my existence). Since I'd do anything for a clearer complexion, I put LED light therapy to the test, and (spoiler alert) loved the results.

Yes, LED Facial Treatments Do Work (But Not In A Flash)                          
If you follow any celebrities on Instagram, chances are you've come across a picture of an LED treatment before.
You know that strange-looking serial killer mask that retails for about $2,000? That's it. Or perhaps you've thought of trying one of the many at-home handheld devices, such as the Quasar MD Plus that Kim Kardashian uses (apparently, she's "really big on laser facials"). Or maybe you've seen someone wearing funky protective eyewear at a medispa or doctor's office and all kinds of bright lights were involved? Yep, that would be it as well. LED skin treatments all the rage nowadays. Here's what you need to know about them.
Blue light or red light?
There are various kinds of LED facials available on the market today, and the technology is rapidly evolving. Some skin treatments involve the use of blue light, while some only use red light.
The basic premise of LED skin therapy is that different colours trigger different reactions beneath the epidermis and penetrate the skin at varying depths. Blue light is generally used to kill the bacteria that causes acne, providing an effective treatment for blackheads and whiteheads, whereas wavelengths of red light are normally used to speed up healing and stimulate collagen production, simultaneously shrinking enlarged pores and tightening the skin.
LED treatments are painless, non-invasive and no downtime is required. According to Sacha Bourdage, Director of Laser Services at the Victoria Park Medispa in Montreal, Canada, "people are looking for a lot of alternatives these days... An LED treatment is great for targeting areas that are hard to hit with Botox and injectables, bringing out the plumpness and reducing the appearance of crow's feet and other wrinkles."

Do LED light facials really work?
The treatments can last a mere few minutes, depending on the type of technology used. That's right! Perfect during lunch hour, much?
OK, but do they really work?
Dr. R. Glen Calderhead, one of the world's leading experts in phototherapy and photosurgery, seems to think so. In a recently published study, he states that "low-level light therapy (LLLT) with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) is emerging from the mists of black magic as a solid medico-scientific modality, with a substantial buildup of corroborative bodies of evidence for its efficacy and elucidation of the modes of action. Reports are appearing from many different specialties; however, of particular interest to plastic surgeons treating the aging face is the proven action of LED-LLLT on skin cells in both the epidermis and dermis and enhanced blood flow. Thus, LED-LLLT is a safe and effective stand-alone therapy for patients who are prepared to wait until the final effect is perceived."
So, yes -- but not overnight.
And the price is rather steep, too: count on average $50 to $300 per treatment. And although some customers who've undergone blue light therapy claim that most of their dimples disappeared after a single treatment, Bourdage advises caution: "It's not a cure. It's a treatment." Typically, you'll need at least four treatments before you start noticing results. In order to rejuvenate the skin's appearance, improve its texture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, a few weeks will be required. The good news? The benefits are cumulative, and one treatment per year is normally sufficient to maintain the results afterwards.
You can do it at home, too: according to prominent New York City aesthetic medicine expert Dr Z. Paul Lorenc, using a pharmacy-bought LED skincare device can be a great alternative to clinical-grade treatments: "Probably the biggest pro is that it works. Studies conducted using LED for acne and anti-aging showed significant improvement in both. The biggest con is that you have to commit to using it every day. This needs to become part of your daily skin care regimen. For some this may be a burden!"
For patients that lack discipline, opting for a more powerful machine might be a better option: "Light is measured in nanometers, and LED lights have different depths. Devices like the one that we have here can only be used in medispas or on a medical level... It all comes down to the expectations you have," says Dr. Lorenc.
"LED light has demonstrated significant efficacy for various skin pathologies," says Bourdage. "The LED light by itself can stimulate specific cell lines and improve certain aspects of the skin, and the technology can be further improved when combined with light-absorbing chromophore gel, which allows the LED light to penetrate deeper into the skin. We use Lumibel to reduce the appearance of crow's feet, marionette lines, forehead lines and pore size. For patients with acne-prone skin, we offer a treatment called Lumibel."
Here's how a typical LumiBel light-emitting diode session unfolds: the patient comes in after having her picture taken and lies down on an examination table, where the aesthetician uses a gentle cleanser to remove any makeup or impurities before applying a special gel onto her face. The multi-LED LumiBel blue light system is then used to activate the gel, converting the light from the lamp into different color wavelengths. The light panels can also be used on other acne-prone body areas, such as the chest or back.
Although the machine never actually touches the skin, the patient must wear protective eyewear. At Victoria Park & other medispas, small stickers can be placed over the eye area in order to treat crow's feet. "How can you expect the LED light to treat your crow's feet if you're wearing these huge goggles?" exclaims Bourdage. Indeed... Make sure you keep this in mind when booking your next appointment! Don't be afraid to ask the receptionist if stickers -- not just goggles -- are available at your local medical spa or dermatologist's office.
This particular treatment lasts nine minutes (most LED treatments are over in less than twenty minutes), during which a warm, pleasant sensation can be felt over the entire face. While you're there you can listen to some background music, mediate, even take a power nap -- honestly, the whole process really isn't as freaky as it may sound.
After the treatment, once the gel is delicately removed, a moisturizer is applied along with an SPF to protect the skin from UV rays. Flushing very rarely occurs. That's right, you're free to walk around town or go right back to work -- no one will ever guess what you were doing just a few minutes before. "Most of our patients find it relaxing!" Bourdage candidly points out. And based on their comments and the technology's commercial success, it certainly seems like it's here to stay.
What is LED Light Therapy?
First off, let's talk about what LED stands for: light emitting diode. Without getting too technical, an LED is a light source that emits infrared light (and thereby, heat) when activated, exactly like the machine pictured below. LED light therapy is most often administered via single light units or formations of panels that are directed at the skin from a few inches away. The benefits come from exposure to the light; there is no machine-to-skin contact when the panels are involved. It can also be administered through a handheld wand that you would expose skin to in the same way. Most spas use the panels, because they cover more surface area, while the hand-held devices are a more practical option for at-home use.
LED lights come in different spectrums, including red, white, and blue infrared.
