LED EXPLAINED
WHY THE LIGHT WAY
IS THE RIGHT WAY
LED EXPLAINED
LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. It uses colour wavelengths of visible light, each offering specific benefits for the skin. LEDs emit therapeutic wavelengths of light energy to energise skin cells, stimulating the production of collagen, elastin, and antioxidants while improving blood and lymphatic circulation.
Different light spectrums penetrate the skin at varying depths and produce distinct effects. Various LED lights address multiple skin problems and imperfections.
LED light therapy is a fundamental beauty treatment that enhances and maintains the results of your entire skincare routine. It helps your skincare products work more effectively and complements in-clinic treatments. When used as part of a bespoke skincare regimen, LED light therapy can provide the perfect foundation for great skin every day.
INFRARED EXPLAINED
Red and infrared light (NIR) can penetrate the skin more deeply than almost any other light wavelength. Infrared light's key characteristic is its ability to reach deep layers of the skin, offering greater pain relief.
Red light therapy devices that combine both red light and near-infrared light offer potent healing potential by incorporating a range of therapeutic wavelengths. These wavelengths can target diverse issues. For example, red light wavelengths penetrate the skin to promote collagen production and wound healing. In contrast, near-infrared light reaches deeper into body tissues to more effectively target deep wounds, muscle pain, or joint pain.
Infrared light is safe, natural, non-invasive, and painless, offering a broad range of health benefits.

LEARN MORE ABOUT LED LIGHT THERAPY
LED therapy can benefit most people who want to improve the appearance of a range of skin conditions or just generally anyone looking to restore skin’s radiance and make their skin look younger and healthier.
An improved lifestyle and skin regimen combined with a monthly maintenance treatment is sufficient to enhance and maintain results.
No, LED Therapy is completely painless.
It delivers light energy at specific wavelengths to your skin — without heat, needles, or discomfort. Most people describe the experience as relaxing and soothing, similar to lying under gentle warmth. There’s no downtime, no irritation, and no sensation beyond a soft, calming glow.
Infrared light penetrates deeper than visible wavelengths, reaching the skin’s lower layers where renewal begins. It stimulates circulation, supports collagen production, and enhances cellular repair from within. Unlike surface-level treatments, infrared light works below the skin’s surface to promote long-term rejuvenation, firmness, and vitality - the kind that radiates naturally.
LED Massage Therapy combines the restorative power of light with the benefits of gentle vibration.
While LED light energises skin cells and supports renewal, the massage function boosts circulation, promotes lymphatic drainage, and helps relieve facial tension. Together, they enhance absorption of skincare products and leave the skin visibly smoother, firmer, and more luminous — an inside-out rejuvenation experience.
Consistent LED Light Therapy delivers visible and progressive results.
Skin appears brighter, smoother, and more refined as cellular energy increases and collagen synthesis is stimulated. Over time, fine lines and uneven texture diminish, tone becomes more even, and the complexion regains its youthful radiance. With regular use, results continue to build — revealing skin that looks revitalised, balanced, and naturally luminous.
