LED light will activate the skin’s photoreceptors and allows the skin cells to absorb its energy. In treatments the LED works penetrates the skin to treat issues from the inside out.

LED works in the deep layers of the skin to inhibit bacteria formation, stimulate collagen and reduce inflammation

The different wavelengths will combat different issues and the practitioner will tailor the treatment to suit the client, making it excellent as everyone is therefore a client!

No skin care on earth can penetrate as deeply as LED, and it is a non-invasive procedure! Which means no known side effects and no down time.

BLUE LIGHT– acne

P. acnes is the bacteria that causes acne, and it is known to produce a large amount of porphyrins within the bacterial cell.

These porphyrins can be photosensitized with Blue LED to create an oxygen molecule. P. acnes is an anaerobic bacteria, which means it can not live in the presence of oxygen.

So when P. acnes is in the presence of Blue LED these porphyrins create an oxygen molecule, which ends up killing the P. acnes bacteria.

RED LIGHT– anti-ageing/reduces inflammation/speeds up healing

Red LED is beneficial in healing inflamed acne, wounds, cuts, scars and infections.

It is also recommended as a post-care treatment after fractional laser, dermal rolling or needling, chemical peels, electrodessication and micro or dermabrasion for quicker healing and better results.

The LED red light has been proven to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, smooth skin texture, improve skin elasticity, increase circulation and lymph drainage and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and superficial hyperpigmentation.

NEAR-INFRARED– hyperpigmentation/anti-ageing

Near infrared is invisible to the naked eye, but they are integrated into all the LED modes on the illumination LED face mask.

Near infrared is also beneficial in healing wounds, cuts, scars and infections along with stimulating the deeper tissues, resulting in a healing effect on muscles deep in the subcutaneous tissues.

Helps to treat serious hyperpigmentation (even pigmentation that has leaked into the dermal layer) to achieve a brighter clearer skin tone

THE SCIENCE

The extra cellular matrix is made up of glycosaminoglycan’s (mainly composed of hyaluronic acid), collagen and elastin. The LED works to stimulate fibroblasts that will regenerate these important components.

LED also works to improve oxygenation, blood circulation and aid in lymphatic drainage. Light energy from the LED penetrates beneath the skin and is absorbed by the proteins in the cells beneath the skin. These cells release nitric oxide, the body’s natural vasodilator, after just 20 minutes of the treatment blood flow is increased to nerves and other tissues, this then boosts circulation for several hours. The blood will work to feed the skin with vital nutrients.
