LED light therapy
"LED light therapy is a modern treatment technique that uses specific wavelengths of light to treat various skin problems. When using devices such as Celluma and Healite, the skin is treated all year round with no downtime."
LED light therapy mode of action
In LED therapy, monochromatic LED light (one wavelength) is emitted onto the skin. It is a gentle biostimulation to improve cell function and blood circulation, as well as for skin rejuvenation. The treatment is suitable for all skin types and can be carried out all year round. It is known through the use of LED masks at home.
The treatment takes between 10 and 20 minutes and should be carried out at least every 1 to 2 weeks, preferably twice a week
The mode of action of LED light therapy varies depending on the device used. Celluma and Healite both use three specific wavelengths - blue, red and near-infrared - but with different effects.
Celluma uses blue light to surface acne bacteria, red light to reduce sebum production and improve collagen and elastin production, and near-infrared light to increase microcirculation, reduce inflammation and relieve pain.
Healite uses blue light for its antibacterial effects and to improve skin clarity, red light to increase collagen/elastin building and improve skin hydration, and near-infrared light to rejuvenate skin, calm redness and sensitive skin, and promote tissue repair.
LED Light Therapy Treatment Options
LED light therapy can be used to treat a variety of skin problems, including Acne, Rosacea, Hyperpigmentation and Hair loss. The treatment options can vary depending on the device selected. Certain wavelengths also improve the appearance of the skin and have anti-aging properties.
- The blue light (415 nm) has strong antibacterial properties and provides effective treatment for all types of Acne, without irritation of the skin. An interaction with the P. acne bacteria leads to a photodynamic reaction that leads to the destruction of the bacteria. It also helps reduce sebum production and improve skin clarity.
- Powerful antibacterial effect
- Treats all types of acne
- Helps regulate sebum production
- Soothing effect on problem skin
- The red light (633 nm) stimulates the stimulation of collagen in the skin and gives good results of skin rejuvenation and improvement of skin appearance. It also stimulates blood circulation and the lymphatic system, which eliminates toxins and accelerates healing. The effects after the treatment are visible immediately in most cases; the skin is hydrated, plump and with youthful radiance.
- Increases collagen and elastin synthesis
- Reduces fine lines
- Improves skin tone and texture
- Increases the natural moisture
- Improves microcirculation
- Makes you shine
- The Near Infrared Light (830 nm with 590 nm photosequencing) together with red light ensures optimal rejuvenation results. It is the deepest absorbed wavelength that targets the inflammatory processes in the cells. This accelerates tissue healing and reduces scarring. NIR has a strong anti-inflammatory effect and gives the skin strength in sensitive conditions such as Acne, Rosacea and Psoriasis. It is also clinically proven in the treatment of hyperpigmentation and supports the delivery of topical products through increased cell permeability.
- Advanced regenerating treatment
- Powerful anti-inflammatory effect
- Reduces redness and irritation
- Improves pigmentation
- Helps restore vessels
- Relieves pain
We were also able to achieve good results in the Hair loss as a single therapy or in combination with other therapies.
LED Light Therapy Procedure
The course of treatment also differs depending on the device used.
At Celluma is analyzed before the treatment, which wavelength is the right one for the patient's skin problem. The therapy should be performed on clean, dry skin and lasts about 25 minutes. After the treatment, suitable care products are presented.
At Healite Depending on the treatment area, the treatment takes place either in a semi-sitting or lying position. The eyes are covered with special glasses if necessary and the skin is thoroughly cleaned. The treatment lasts about 15 minutes and make-up can be reapplied immediately after the treatment.
In both cases, it is recommended to perform a series of treatments to achieve the best results. The exact number and frequency of treatments varies depending on the skin problem and the device used. Certain treatments can also be carried out at home using LED masks.
