A cooling tip is applied to the skin’s surface. The LimeLight device produces a bright beam of light that heats up the skin and is absorbed into the underlying layers of the skin where new collagen is stimulated to grow thus improving skin tone. This treatment also coagulates and removes dilated capillaries and brown spots on the skin without bruising.
