This simple, yet effective treatment can help with a total skin rejuvenation that it sounds almost too good to be true. Since it’s such a simple and easy treatment, we get many questions on this treatment. How does it work? Does it hurt? Do I really just sit under a light? Lucky for you, we’re here to shed some light on this fabulous treatment. 😉

 

What is LED Light Therapy?

LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that harnesses the healing power of light to help with a total skin rejuvenation. It can be an effective stand-alone treatment but is also a great add-on to almost any medi-aesthetic treatment or procedures.

 

How does it work?

The LED lights used in this treatment target deep into the skin cells to help heighten their internal functions and photo-stimulate dermal blood flow. With two unique LED lights to choose from (yellow or blue), your treatment will be able to be customised to you and your skin goals. Your technician will be able to advise you on which light and wavelength is right for you!

 

What does it do?

LED Light Therapy can help induce faster healing, decrease pain, reduce acne and more! It helps photo-stimulate blood flow to the dermis layer of your skin. This can then cause an increase in collagen and elastin production. Studies all over the world have also shown how this treatment can help reduce pain and speed up the healing process of the skin, hence why it’s such a great add-on to many treatments.

 

What is the difference between blue light and yellow light?

Blue light LED works by killing a type of bacteria called Propionibacterium acnes. This bacteria lives below the surface of the skin and can be responsible for acne. Yellow light is great for overall skin rejuvenation and anti-ageing concerns.

 

Who can get this treatment?

Everyone! This treatment is non-invasive and is suitable for all skin tones and skin types. This treatment is also safe if you are pregnant or breast-feeding – so bring on the yummy-mummy skin!

 

What can I pair this treatment with?

This treatment is a great add-on to treatments such as Microdermabrasions or peels. It is also a great add-on to your injectables treatment, as it could help speed up the healing process and reduce bruising.
