What is LED Light Therapy?
LED light therapy is a skin rejuvenation treatment that exposes skin to different wavelengths of visible light to address a variety of skin conditions and boost overall radiance. The LED treatments are effective complement to facials, laser treatments, chemical exfoliations and microneedling, they also help aid the recovery process by killing bacteria, reducing inflammation and promoting human tissue growth and wound healing process.
- Red light is useful in anti-aging treatments due to its collagen-building effects. It can help minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while mildly tightening skin. Thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties, it’s also suitable for soothing the irritation of rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema.
- Blue light is a proven-effective acne treatment that reduces breakout-causing bacteria and soothes inflammation.
- Yellow light has more shallow penetration, so it’s useful for surface skin concerns, like sun damage, redness, and visible blood vessels.
- Green light, while less studied and less commonly encountered, may accelerate wound-healing activity.
