How does LED light work to help improve skin?

L.E.D. stands for “light-emitting diodes”, which are clinically proven to rejuvenate all skin types. Whether you have dry, sensitive skin, uneven tone, acne, oily skin, visible pores or a combination, LED light therapy can help improve the appearance of your skin.

Simply shining a red light on your face won’t do the trick, and here’s why. LED Light therapy helps improve the appearance of skin by altering cellular activity. You might hear people talk about what “colour” they’re using on their skin, but it’s the frequency of light that matters. This is what’s able to penetrate through your skin and encourage regeneration on a cellular level.

By using various wavelengths of these light-emitting diodes over the face, the cells in the dermis layer of the skin convert that light to energy, using it as “fuel”. The fibroblast cells in the dermis layer then produce collagen and elastin, which give us fuller, plumper skin together with healing and rejuvenation. Different colours work for specific skin benefits, which is why you’ll see various colours of light used, with blue for acne and antibacterial properties and red for wrinkles, fine lines and inflammation. L.E.D. Face Mask treatments are not unlike Dermapen Microneedling treatments in some ways. Both work by triggering your skin’s healing response to create customised regeneration, repair and rejuvenation. They work excellently together to produce even better and faster results.

The only type of “downtime” you can expect with a LED treatment is a blissful 15 minutes out of your schedule.

What skin conditions is it useful for treating?

LED light therapy is clinically proven to help get rid of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as target other common skincare concerns.

It’s the perfect beginner-advanced treatment for those looking to reduce the signs of ageing, acne-causing bacteria, redness, sun damage and pigmentation, treat dehydrated and inflamed skin, as well as scar healing.

As a bonus, LED therapy also promotes the production of serotonin. This naturally occurring chemical is essential for sleep, wellbeing and happiness.
