How Does LED Phototherapy work?
The LED Phototherapy uses light to stimulate cells, which start to activate their own vital functions and produce more enzymes. Photo-rejunvenation using the LED lamp activates photosensitive receptors in the cells to generate energy. From here, the photo rejuvenation leads to nourishment and regeneration of cells, on the face. Skin cells become gradually stronger thereby producing visible rejuvenation effect.
The treatment is pleasant and relaxing, it demonstrates high efficacy. Patients are exposed to regenerating light that not only rejuvenates and revitalise the skin, but also alleviates pain and exhibits anti-inflammatory properties.
Red Light 625nm
The red light is used to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin fibres. This helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and scarring. It also improves skin elasticity and texture. This specific wavelength can also be used to treat androgenic alopecia and can activate photosensitising agents.
Green Light 520nm
The green light has the effects of calming, anti-inflammation, and improving the water and oil balance of the skin. It also has the effect of calming nerves and can improve anxiety or depression.
Blue Light465nm
The blue light is used to treat acne and skin congestion. The blue light helps kill off p.acnes bacteria, which live on the skin. It’s when this bacteria grows out of control that acne breakouts occur.
