LED Light Therapy is a therapeutic technique that uses specific wavelengths of light to infiltrate the skin at various depths to induce different biological responses. This painless, non-thermal treatment stimulates the skin's natural healing processes without causing damage.
LED Light Therapy is versatile, with different colours of light targeting specific skin issues: blue light fights acne-causing bacteria, red light promotes collagen production and reduces inflammation, and near-infrared light accelerates healing and reduces pigmentation.
Undergoing LED Light Therapy at Aesthetix Medical Clinic is straightforward, comfortable, and quick, making it an ideal enhancement to your skincare routine. The process begins with a consultation to review your skin concerns and determine the most suitable light spectrum for your treatment.
Next, your skin is gently cleansed to remove makeup and impurities, optimising the therapy's effectiveness. Safety goggles are provided to protect your eyes from the intense LED light during the therapy session, and you’ll relax as the chosen LED Light is applied to your skin. This noninvasive treatment bathes your skin in therapeutic wavelengths, allowing for deep penetration and beneficial effects.
Following the session, a skincare specialist may apply a serum or moisturises to augment the therapy’s benefits and sunscreen to safeguard your skin. Finally, you’ll receive personalised advice regarding the necessary number of sessions and any additional follow-up care or treatments to leverage the therapy’s advantages.
The number of LED Light Therapy sessions can vary according to individual skin concerns and goals for optimal results. Usually, a series of treatments are recommended to achieve significant improvements.
Acute conditions like acne require more frequent sessions, perhaps twice a week, while maintenance or anti-ageing treatments may be spaced further apart, usually once a week for about 4-6 weeks.
LED Light Therapy offers a wide array of benefits, making it a versatile and effective treatment for various skin concerns:
