What is LED Light Treatment?

As aesthetic professionals with years of experience, we’ve seen the remarkable effects of LED light therapy firsthand at Wellaholic. Our customers often ask us about this treatment, curious about its benefits and how it works. In this article, we’ll share our insights on the five brilliant benefits of LED light therapy. We’ve seen these benefits in action, both at Wellaholic in Singapore and during Serene’s time at Laser Clinics Australia. From reducing acne to smoothing wrinkles, LED therapy has proven to be a game-changer in skincare. We’ll explain how this non-invasive treatment can help you achieve healthier, more radiant skin.

visible light can have effective results on the skin, particularly in high-energy types, such as in lasers and extreme pulsed light (IPL)
Research shows that skin cells absorb particles of light (photons) and convert their energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary energy form used by cells. The resulting boost of ATP powers metabolic processes, synthesizes vital cellular components like DNA, RNA, proteins, enzymes, and fosters cell multiplication and balance restoration. In simpler terms, LED phototherapy provides compromised cells with added energy, enhancing their performance. For instance, fibroblast cells will produce more collagen and elastin, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and speeding up wound healing.

Exactly how does LED light treatment work?

The Impact of LED Light on Skin Health

From my experience, Daniel Belkin’s insights on light therapy in skincare are spot on. I’ve seen how LED light affects skin cells.

Each color of LED light can have a different benefit. For example, blue light can help with acne. It changes the skin’s microbiome. Red light can boost collagen. This makes the skin look younger and firmer. Yellow light can reduce swelling and speed up healing.

I’ve seen these effects first-hand in my work. It’s impressive how light can change skin health in so many ways.

Varied Effects of Different LED Light Colors

In my role as Aesthetic Director, I often discuss LED therapy with clients. Bruce Brod, a dermatology professor, explains how the color of LED light affects its efficacy. Blue light is proven to reduce acne. Studies show regular use helps a lot.

Red LED light aims to boost collagen. But its effects are less clear. It’s hard to see skin getting better over time. Measuring acne is easier than watching skin slowly improve. Brod says more research on red light is needed. For now, blue light is good for some acne types. Red light may help with fine lines and discoloration, but the changes are often small.

How long does it consider LED light treatments to work?

We’ve seen great results with LED light therapy at Wellaholic, but it’s important to understand that it’s not an overnight fix. Most of our customers start noticing small improvements after about 4 to 6 sessions. These changes might include smoother skin texture or a slight reduction in acne.

For more significant results, we usually recommend a series of 10 to 12 treatments, spaced about a week apart. This gives your skin enough time to respond to the light therapy between sessions. Some of our customers with stubborn skin issues, like deep wrinkles or severe acne scars, may need even more treatments to see the full benefits. Remember, everyone’s skin is unique, so the time it takes to see results can vary from person to person.

What is LED red light?

At Wellaholic, we often get asked about LED red light therapy. It’s a treatment we’re passionate about, and for good reason. LED red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of red light to penetrate deep into the skin. We’ve seen how it can work wonders for our customers, helping with everything from reducing wrinkles to easing muscle pain.

The science behind it is fascinating. Red light stimulates the mitochondria in our cells, which are like tiny power plants. This boost of energy helps cells repair and renew themselves faster. We’ve noticed that many of our customers at Wellaholic leave their sessions feeling refreshed and glowing. It’s not just about looking good – the therapy can also help with healing and reducing inflammation. We love seeing the positive changes in our customers’ skin and overall well-being after they try this treatment.

Blue LED light is usually made use of to deal with acne. It might do this by reducing activity in the sweat glands, so they create much less of the oil that can plug the hair roots, bring about acne. Blue light might also eliminate acne-causing microorganisms called Cutibacterium acnes.

What is LED blue light?

At Wellaholic, we often get questions about LED blue light from our customers. So, what exactly is it? LED blue light is a type of high-energy visible light that comes from digital screens and LED bulbs. It’s part of the visible light spectrum, with wavelengths between 380 and 500 nanometers.

We’ve noticed that many of our customers spend long hours in front of screens, whether for work or leisure. This means they’re exposed to more blue light than ever before. While blue light isn’t all bad – it can boost alertness and mood during the day – too much exposure, especially at night, can disrupt sleep patterns. That’s why we always advise our customers to be mindful of their screen time, especially before bed.

Am I a good candidate for LED light facial therapy?

At Wellaholic, we often get asked who’s a good fit for LED light facial therapy. The truth is, this treatment works well for most skin types and concerns. We’ve seen great results with customers dealing with acne, fine lines, and dull skin.

If you’re looking for a gentle way to boost your skin’s health, LED therapy might be perfect for you. It’s safe, painless, and doesn’t require any downtime. Even those with sensitive skin can usually benefit from it. However, if you’re pregnant or have certain medical conditions, we’d need to chat first. We always recommend a quick consultation to make sure it’s the right choice for your unique skin needs.

In my time in aesthetics, I've learned a lot about LED light therapy. I have seen five main benefits from it. First, it is gentle. This means many people can use it without pain. It works well for different skin problems too. It can help with aging, acne, and making skin healthier.
