- It’s the application of specific wavelengths of light energy to tissue to obtain therapeutic benefits.
- The energy delivered is then used to improve cellular performance.
- Light Therapy can be delivered through light emitting diode (LED) devices and has a variety of applications across many medical fields.
- The treatment is non-invasive, painless, requires no recovery time, and can be used on all skin types.
LED Light Therapy
- Remove any makeup, cosmetics or creams pre-appointment.
- Avoid treatment if taking photosensitive medications including Accutane for Acne.
- Each LED light therapy session takes about 20 minutes at a time.
- LED light therapy is noninvasive, so no recovery time is required. You should be able to continue with your everyday activities once your treatment is over.
- LED light therapy requires up to 10 sessions or more to achieve best results, each spaced out about a week apart. You may start to see minor results after your first session. Results will be more dramatic and noticeable once you’ve finished all of your treatments.
- Even after you’ve achieved the recommended number of sessions, your results aren’t permanent. As your skin cells turn over, you may lose some collagen and start to see signs of aging again. You may also start to see acne breakouts. We recommend maintenance treatment two/three times per year to maintain results.
