EQUIPMENT CORNER Curing units with a proven safety record
When the effect of UV curing is studied, mindfulness is required to keep facts relevant and accurate to the in-salon recommended gel curing conditions, the absence of which may result in confusion and uncertainty about UV nail gel curing.
With research on its UV curing equipment dating back to 1996, followed by tests in 2009 and 2012, c brings a track record of reliability and safety to the table.
The phrase “safe when used correctly” validated all study results. To ensure proper use, BIO SCULPTURE insists on training its nail technicians and prescribes curing times specific to its brand of products and lamps.
BIO SCULPTURE ‘s new LED units use a narrow range of UV-curing wavelengths. These wavelengths are different from what BIO SCULPTURE recommends for gel curing conditions and properties:
• The lamp’s design was based on independent safety testing and UV emission in the non-damaging visible light spectrum.
• BIO SCULPTURE manufactured products, including its curing lamps, are compliant with the strict guidelines of the global cosmetic regulatory authorities, based on broad and reliable scientific studies underpinning the safety of correctly designed and used UV nail products and curing lamps.
Understanding UV curing
Both UV LED and fluorescent UV lamps emit UV light, and although they essentially work the same way, they differ in the spectrum of wavelengths emitted. The curing reaction occurs because the product’s photo initiators absorb specific wavelengths and convert them into energy needed for the product to solidify or cure.
Earlier lamps, generally referred to as “UV units,” emit a broader spectrum of UV wavelengths, while the brand’s latest LED design lamp produces a limited, more precise range of UV wavelengths. The latter allows for a more specific curing reaction, in which the diodes target the photo initiators in our custom-designed gel to cure much faster than earlier UV units.
Ultra Curing Unit
