LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. It uses colour wavelengths of visible light, which have specific benefits for the skin. The LED emits therapeutic wavelengths of light energy to energise skin cells. It stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and anti-antioxidants and improves blood and lymphatic circulation.
Different light spectrums penetrate the skin in different depths and have different effects. Various LED lights help various skin problems and imperfections.
LED light therapy is a fundamental beauty treatment that enhances and maintains the results of everything else included in your skincare routine. It helps your skincare products be more effective as well as in-clinic treatments.
When used as part of a bespoke skincare regime, LED light therapy can help provide the perfect foundation to everyday great skin.
INFRARED Explained
Red and infrared light (NIR) can penetrate the skin deeper than almost any other light wavelength. The key characteristic of infrared light is its ability to penetrate even the deep layers of the skin, providing greater pain relief.
Red light therapy devices that combine both red light and near infrared light offer potent healing potential because they incorporate a range of therapeutic wavelengths. These wavelengths can target diverse issues. For example, red light wavelengths can penetrate to the depth of the skin, promoting collagen production and healing wounds, while near infrared light is able to penetrate deeper into the body’s tissue to more successfully target deep wounds, muscle, or joint pain.
Also, infrared light is safe, natural, non-invasive, and painless. Thus, it may be able to provide a broad range of health benefits.
The Depth of Red Light Penetration
Red and infrared light can penetrate the skin deeper than almost any other light wavelength. Take a look at the diagram below sourced from a clinical study of light penetration.

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 Light Therapy is completely non-invasive and does not hurt. All you will feel is a tiny bit of warmth.
Infrared light is the most deeply absorbed wavelength. It increases cell permeability and absorption, smooths lines and wrinkles, improves elasticity, helps reduces pain and inflammation, accelerates wound healing, and heals cystic acne.
Stimulating the facial muscles with regular massage helps to bring oxygen to that area as a natural form of anti-ageing skin care. More blood flow to the area increases collagen production, which gives a heathy and natural glow to the complexion.
Every session of LED light therapy stimulates the body to increase the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid – the three key elements of healthy, bright, and radiant skin.
The results can vary, depending on the individual and skin concern but overall, with consistent regular treatments, results can last 6 – 12 months following a course of LED Light Therapy Treatments. Because LED light therapy works on a cellular level, you will leave looking radiant and glowing.
