WHAT CAN LED PHOTOTHERAPY HELP WITH?
LED Phototherapy involves applying low-level light energy, using specific wavelengths, to help encourage or control biological processes.
Or, in non-scientific terms: by shining particular types of light, at particular frequencies ("wavelengths"), onto the skin, we can help encourage certain "good" biological processes (like boosting the production of collagen) and reduce "bad" biological processes (like reducing the amount of bacteria on the skin).
Your skin is made up of three specific layers:
-
the epidermis - the top layer of the skin
-
the dermis - the middle layer of the skin
-
the subcutaneous layer
Blue light can reach into the epidermis, red light can reach into the dermis, and near infrared light can reach all the way into the subcutaneous layer. Scientists have been studying how these blue, red and near infrared lights can affect the body for almost fifty years.
HOW DOES LED PHOTOTHERAPY WORK?
When it comes to making changes, the light has to be at a specific frequency, and that's what scientists have been studying.
Blue light - at a frequency of 415 nanometers - can kill bacteria on the skin that causes spots and acne without the irritation that comes with using medical washes and creams. It can help with reducing inflammation, and can also calm problematic skin problems like psoriasis. Using blue and red light (at the right frequencies) together has been shown to improve spots and blemishes by up to 76%.
Red light - at a frequency of 633 nanometers - can increase accelerate skin renewal, increase blood circulation and oxygenation, stimulate the lymphatic system and help restore optimum cell function.
Near infrared light - at a frequency of 830 nanometers - can help rejuvenate skin, calm redness and irritation, manage the body's inflammatory response, reduce hyperpigmentation and help accelerate healing. In fact, near infrared light has been shown to boost cell regeneration by up to 200%!
Using light at other frequencies won't have the same effect - even if it's the same colour, it's these specific frequencies that have been studied.
WHY WAVELENGTHS MATTER
There's lots of LED Phototherapy devices, but at LED By Light, we are proud to use the Dermalux Flex MD. This is a FDA approved, medically CE certified device for the trvatemten of acne, psoriasis, wound healing and musculoskeletal pain.
The blue, red, and near infrared light emitted by the Dermalux Flex MD is sent out at the most clinically studied wavelengths.
Because it uses light, it's non-invasive and carries no downtime. It's pain-free (although the skin can feel slightly warm during or after treatment)
THE DERMALUX FLEX MD AT LED BY LIGHT, SPALDING
Your treatment is personalised for you, but the standard recommendation is to have a course of 12 treatments, with 2 or 3 treatments a week. This would mean:
-
3 treatments a week for 4 weeks
-
2 treatments a week for 6 weeks
With inflammatory conditions like acne, redness or psoriasis, there should be at least 24 hours before treatments, but with general skin rejuvenation conditions can be taken in daily succession.
Results from this initial course of treatment can last for several weeks, but regular maintenance treatments may be necessary to extend the results.
After the initial course of treatment, you may wish to have "boost" sessions: individual treatments or a short course of 3 treatments to revitalise or calm irritation.
