How it works
LED light therapy is a painless and non-invasive treatment that uses light to deliver concentrated energy deep into skin tissues. It has powerful healing effects as it stimulates dermal blood flow and enhances the skin’s ability to repair itself, leaving skin smooth and healthy. LED light therapy is a short, comfortable experience and you will leave feeling fresh and relaxed.
The LED light therapy system comes in different wavelengths including red, yellow and blue, which are each suited to treating different skin concerns.

Benefits
Faster recovery from surgery
LED light therapy promotes new blood vessels and tissue formation as well as increased collagen production, leading to faster healing for injuries and wounds.
Reduced inflammation
Procedures or injuries often create inflammation which makes recovery longer and more painful. LED light therapy reduces acute inflammation and swelling, resulting in less pain and faster healing.
Natural pain relief
Non-invasive and drug-free, LED light therapy relieves pain naturally, without side effects of prescription pain killers.
Less scarring
Studies have shown significantly less scarring after LED light therapy for wounds, incisions and burns.
Boosted skin regeneration
Penetrating the skin, LED light therapy reduces oxidative stress, stimulates cellular energy production and collagen production. This helps our body power itself, regenerate and heal faster.
Enhanced overall skin health
LED light therapy effectively improves dermatological skin concerns like acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, dermatitis, sensitive and inflammatory conditions.
Frequently asked questions
How does LED light therapy work?
LED light therapy emits UV-free, beneficial light rays that energise cells and stimulate the body's natural healing process as well as collagen and elastin production.
Is LED light therapy safe?
LED light therapy is a non-invasive treatment which has been used safely and effectively for over 15 years with no contra-indications. It is safe for the eyes and it cannot be overused. In fact, two weekly sessions for at least four to eight weeks deliver the best results.
What can I expect during an LED light therapy session?
The sensation of LED light therapy is similar to lying in the sun without the damaging effects, during which a warm, pleasant feeling can be felt on the skin. For 20 minutes, you can listen to music, take a power nap or just relax. You will leave feeling warm, fresh and rejuvenated. In addition, LED light therapy stimulates the production of serotonin and is one of the most effective treatments for the winter blues.
What results can I expect from LED light therapy?
On your first LED light therapy session your skin will feel rejuvenated from increased oxygen and blood flow to the skin. After the first two weeks, your skin will appear smoother, brighter and more plump. After four weeks, your skin will be more even, tighter and firmer with a healthy improvement in tone, clarity and texture. These results will continue to improve up to four to six months after the LED light therapy treatments.
How much downtime will I need following LED light therapy?
How many LED light therapy sessions will I need?
The number of LED light therapy treatments required will depend on your individual skin concerns, which will be discussed during your consultation. Many patients see results after just one session, but several sessions are recommended for best outcomes.
How can I use LED light therapy to optimise my results from cosmetic procedures?
Add an LED light therapy treatment to any other cosmetic treatment to accelerate healing, reduce bruising and rejuvenate damaged and ageing skin. Optimum results are seen from a series of six treatments, but the best way to maintain results is to do a series of 12 treatments every six months.
