What Is LED Light Therapy?
LED light therapy is light activation of cell receptors, which delivers powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue. Red, Blue and Infrared lights utilise specific wavelengths and are chosen according to the desired therapeutic effect.
This groundbreaking technology originating from NASA, uses Light Emitting Diodes (LED’s) to bathe your skin in soothing wavelengths of light that penetrate deep into the dermis. They enhance cellular metabolism, accelerating the repair and replenishment of damaged skin cells, and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin fibres.
It is often combined with Microdermabrasion, Chemical Peels, Extractions and other Facial Treatments to improve results, reduce inflammation, acne and speed recovery.
They are safe for any age, skin type and colour, and can be used on any area of the body (face, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, etc).
What Can It Treat?
Our LED light therapy treatment is similar to the Omnilux, and is a safe and effective method to repair and rejuvenate all skin types, and provide anti-aging benefits. It is non-invasive, requires no downtime and is incredibly relaxing.
Over time your skin appears healthier, smooth and radiant with an improvement in fine lines, wrinkles, elasticity, firmness, hydration, redness, inflammation, pore size and breakouts.
What Are The Benefits?
- Fibroblasts are stimulated to produce new collagen and elastin fibres improving fine lines, wrinkles, pore size, elasticity and firmness.
- Hydration levels are increased up to 300% with each treatment so your skin looks dewier and more plump.
- Increased oxygen and blood flow facilitates improved healing mechanisms by providing nutrients and growth factors to repair and rejuvenate all skin types.
- Used after injuries or cosmetic procedures to speed healing time and reduce redness and inflammation.
- Stimulates and activates metabolic functions in the skin improving its overall appearance and health.
- Anti-bacterial properties help reduce acne breakouts and infection.
- Reduces inflammation improving the appearance of redness associated with rosacea, breakouts, acne and scarring.
Who Are The Best Candidates?
Any skin type and colour and is safe to have during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
Contraindications (Reasons why may not be suitable for you)
- Epilepsy
- Light sensitising medications such as Tetracyclines
- Photo-allergic.
How Many Treatments Do You Need and How Often?
Multiple sessions are required at regular intervals for optimal results. Just like exercising, the more treatments you have, the better your skin looks, and the firmer it becomes.
We recommend 2-3 treatments a week for 4-6 weeks to achieve optimal results.
What Does It Feel Like?
The procedure is very calming and relaxing and is very similar to enjoying the warmth of the sun on your face but without its damaging rays.
What Can You Expect After The Treatment?
Some people notice their skin will look immediately fresher, brighter, clearer, more relaxed, plump, hydrated and firmer, though it predominantly makes gradual, gentle changes over time.
It is these immediate benefits that make LED treatments popular just before special events.
After Care
No specific after care is required.
Possible Side Effects and Complications
LED light therapy is a very safe and effective treatment for all skin types and there has been no evidence of complications
How Do You Maintain The Results?
