LED Light Therapy Treatments

LED Light Therapy is a skincare treatment that uses varying wavelengths of light. Usually near-infrared, red, yellow, green and blue or combinations of these, depending on your skincare concern.

LED Light Therapy uses colour wavelengths of visible light which have specific skin benefits. As a result of ageing, skin disorders or trauma, healthy skin cells are compromised and unable to renew themselves normally.

The skin uses the light as a source of energy to fuel the repair and rejuvenation of damaged cells, or, in the case of treating acne, kill bacteria. The energy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, boosts circulation and accelerates tissue repair.

Used before and after other skin treatments, LED Therapy speeds up healing, reduces downtime and accelerates results.

A course of LED Light Therapy is usually 10 sessions spaced at weekly or twice weekly intervals depending on your concerns. Expect your skin to continue improving for several weeks after your final treatment. For maintenance we recommend a treatment every 3 weeks

LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment which, when correctly used, medical studies show to have no adverse side-effects. It has been used effectively for more than 15 years for both aesthetic and medical applications.

Unlike other types of light therapy, LEDs produce a pure light wavelength and do not contain ultraviolet rays. This means they are safe for regular use and cannot cause sunburn or tanning of the skin.

LED Light Therapy commonly aids in:

• Increasing blood circulation
• Stimulating collagen production
• Assisting to heal wounds
• Helping to repair damaged skin
• Increasing RNA and DNA synthesis, helping damaged cells to replace more promptly
• Stimulating fibroblastic activity
• Killing bacteria that cause acne
• Comfort sore muscles, aches and pains
• Increasing oxygenation and restoration of the skin’s natural cellular activity, which keeps the skin renewed and fresh.

Undergoing treatment feels like lying on the beach and basking in the sun – but without the harmful UV rays! Your skin should get no more than slightly warm, but the “glow” sensation can last hours after your treatment.
