Understanding LED Light Therapy

LED light therapy uses different colors of light to treat skin issues. It can help with acne, aging, and other skin problems.

This treatment is pain-free and easy to add to a facial service.

Basic Principles of LED Light Therapy

LED therapy works by shining light on your skin. Different colors of light do different things:

• Red light (630-660 nm): Boosts collagen and reduces wrinkles

• Blue light (415-495 nm): Kills acne bacteria

• Green light (495-570 nm): Calms skin and reduces redness

The light goes into your skin cells. It makes them work better and heal faster. Your skin soaks up the light like a plant soaks up sunlight.

LED therapy is safe for most people. You don't feel heat or pain. It doesn't use UV light, so it won't damage your skin.
