LED Light Therapy For Skin Rejuvenation
Originally used by NASA to grow plants in space, LED therapy is now a popular natural and safe treatment used to regenerate skin. The benefits of LED therapy include treating active acne, stimulating collagen, regulating oil production, minimizing redness, fine lines, and wrinkles. It has also shown to be effective in treating sun damaged skin, age spots and uneven skin.
LED therapy does not include UV lights. This makes it safe for all skin types and tones with no risk of skin damage.
Using light in the visible spectrum of blue, yellow, green and red, as well as light invisible to the eye, penetrates deep into the skin making it a perfect natural skin rejuvenation therapy. The light is absorbed by receptors in the skin and each colour of light stimulates different responses in the skin.
What colour LED do I need?
Red Light: Skin penetration depth: 1-6mm
This is the deepest penetrating colour and results in skin cell regeneration, increased oxygen content in the blood for improved circulation, improved wound healing for acne, treatment for allergic dermatitis, promotion of collagen production, improved wrinkles and fine lines, and an effective treatment for maturing skin.
Red LED light is also thought to reduce severe inflammation while improving blood circulation to the skin.
This light has strong antibacterial properties and can be used for the treatment of acne (without irritating it), the reduction of oil production, prevention of future breakouts and offers a UV-free alternative for the treatment of eczema and psoriasis.
Sometimes blue and red light is used in conjuncture to:
- Help treat acne
- Decrease scarring
- Promote anti-inflammatory effects
Reduces the production of melanin and breaks down melanin clusters on the skin resulting in beautifully even skin. Green light therapy also sterilizes the skin, increasing the growth of new cells leaving you with smoother, younger skin.
Yellow Light: Skin penetration depth: 1-2mm
Promotes lymphatic drainage, improves damaged pigmentation and relieves rough and dry skin conditions by replenishing the skin's cell energy. Yellow light therapy also promotes skin immunity and is effective for treatment and prevention of cold sores.
Just like going to the gym on a regular basis to see results all LED skin rejuvenation therapy will require consistency. At least 4-6 treatments are recommended, but this can be very dependent on the client's skin.
Unlike other skin rejuvenation treatments there is no downtime. Skin can be safely treated on a weekly basis and works best when paired with other treatments like cosmetic acupuncture.
