LED light therapy: What is it and its benefits?

What is LED Light Therapy?

LED (Light Emitting Diode) Light Therapy is a skincare treatment that uses a different wavelengths of light, including blue, green, red and purple. It is used to help fight a variety of skin issues such as acne, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.

How does the LED Light Therapy work?

LED Light therapy works by emitting low light wavelengths through the skin. This is 100% safe and is not using UV light. The light penetrates the outer layers of the skin, much like sunlight. When you are soaking up the sun, your skin doesn’t just absorb the heat from the sun, it also absorbs its light.

LED Light Therapy is pain-free and non invasive. The benefits vary by the light being used:
