What is LED Light Therapy and how does it work?

LED Light Therapy combines three lights: blue 415nm, Red 633nm and Near Infrared 830nm wavelengths to combat various skin conditions.

Blue Light:

The Dermalux and Celluma blue light helps to destroy acne bacteria by converting porphyrins (naturally found in acne bacteria) into a state that is harmful to them and kills them. This also normalises oil production, which reduces active acne, prevents future breakouts and improves skin clarity.

Red Light:

The red light accelerates cell renewal and repair. By increasing cell turnover and circulation, the red light triggers the production of collagen and elastin, increases skins hydration and plumps the skin. This kick start light, works by increasing circulation also helps the lymphatic system to eliminate toxins, offering immediate visible effects in the skins tone and appearance.

Near Infrared:

This light is all about repair and is the most deeply absorbed light by the skin and has similar effects on the skin as the red light. However, this light has additional healing benefits for soothing redness and irritation. Exposure to this light triggers the skins anti-inflammatory processes to expedite the skins repair and building strength of environmentally damaged and sensitive skin conditions as well as being effective in the treatment of age spots and hyperpigmentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many treatments will I need?

Many people see immediate results after just one treatment. However, we generally recommend that you have a course of six LED Light Therapy treatments to see maximum benefits.

Is LED light therapy safe?

People often say that their skin feels better immediately after being exposed to sunlight. This is because natural sunlight contains a spectrum of visible and invisible wavelengths, only some of which are harmful (ultraviolet).

Based on this, LED Light Therapy uses carefully selected near infrared, red and blue light to deliver the beneficial healing effects, moreover, it stimulates a cellular response, yet avoids the damaging effects of UV rays.

What does red light treat?

Red light has been proven to reduce lines, improve skin tone and texture. It stimulates the fibroblast cells which increase hydration, trigger the production of collagen and elastin, and plump up the skin.

What does infra-red light treat?

Infra-red light has similar effects and also soothes redness and irritation. Moreover, it has been clinically proven to accelerate skin healing, therefore it is an excellent therapy to follow other treatments, especially skin peels, laser and injectable treatments.

What does blue light treat?

Blue light helps to destroy acne bacteria. It does this by converting porphyrins, which occur naturally in the acne bacteria, into a state that is harmful to them, and kills them.

Blue light also helps to normalise oil production, which reduces active acne and helps to prevent future break-outs.
