LED Light Therapy

What is LED Therapy?

LED (Light Emitting Diode) is a non-invasive skincare treatment that uses varying wavelengths of light to treat different skin conditions. So how does light help skin heal? The diodes emit light in different colours, typically red, blue, and near-infrared. Each colour penetrates the skin at different depths and targets different skin concerns by stimulating the cells that produce collagen and elastin - Those wonderful proteins that help to improve skin elasticity, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and promote a more youthful appearance.
