It is a machine with narrowband light doses to successfully treat a variety of skin conditions. Cells in our body contain receptors that absorb light, which leads to increased cell energy to accelerate the normal cellular process.
The basic premise of LED skin therapy is that different colours trigger different reactions beneath the epidermis, and penetrate the skin at varying depths. Blue light is generally used to kill the bacteria that causes acne, providing an effective treatment for blackheads and whiteheads, whereas wavelengths of red light are normally used to speed up healing and stimulate collagen production, simultaneously shrinking enlarged pores and tightening the skin.
LED treatments are painless, non-invasive, and require no downtime. An LED treatment is great for targeting areas that are hard to hit with Botox and injectables, bringing out the plumpness and reducing the appearance of crow’s feet and other wrinkles.”
The treatment can be used as a stand-alone treatment or be used to offer a more luxurious facial, or at the end of dermaplaning, micro-dermabrasion, chemical peels, needling, lasers to enhance their effectiveness
