LED ... LIGHT THERAPY 

What is LED light Therapy ? 
Do the different colours mean different things ? 
What is it good for ? 

LED or Light Emitting Diode ..

  • LED therapy is a non-invasive skin treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to support overall skin health. It is still a medical treatment.

  • ​Different wavelengths penetrate the skin at varying depths and are used to assist natural cellular processes, helping to calm inflammation, support healing, and aim to improve the appearance of the skin over time.

  • Originally developed for wound care, LED therapy is now widely used in aesthetic practice as part of a broader treatment plan. While the outcomes can vary between individuals, it may assist in improving skin clarity, texture, and overall skin condition.

It is not a simple process ~ Light energy is absorbed by the mitochnondria (the powerhouse of the cell) LED works through a process known as

photo-biomodulation, where light energy interacts with the skin to support normal cellular function..( Regeneration and collagen synthesis.)

 

  • So it aims to help you have decreased inflammation, faster healing, and improved skin function over time. 

  • Different Colours of LED respond in a different way.

  • It is crucial to remember that results are not guaranteed and can vary between individuals.
