How can LEDs be used in skin treatment?

LED stands for light-emitting diode, and much research has shown that it has promising results for wound healing and human tissue growth. LED treatments are now used in medical practices and spas to treat issues such as dermatitis, eczema, acne, signs of ageing, wrinkles, sun spots, scarring, psoriasis and other inflammatory conditions. LED treatment works by using different wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin at different depths to trigger a biological effect.

Red light

Different biological effects can be achieved, depending on how deep the wavelength of the light penetrates the skin. Red light is thought to act on the fibroblasts, which are skin cells responsible for producing collagen, and this can have a significant beneficial effect. Fibroblasts become compromised with age, meaning that collagen production reduces, decreasing the elasticity of the skin so that it is no longer tight and firm. Therefore, red light therapy can be used to combat the signs of ageing of the skin and even stimulate hair growth in females with pattern hair loss.

Blue light

Blue light therapy does not penetrate as deep as red light does, but it is used in the treatment of acne. Blue light is thought to work on the sebaceous glands so that they produce less oil, which could otherwise clog hair follicles and result in acne. With blue light, we can reduce acne and the bacteria on the skin, which causes acne to help achieve a clear complexion. Alternating between blue and red light is beneficial as it kills the bacteria and targets inflammation simultaneously.

To put together an individually tailored treatment plan for you at skin clinic surrey, we will take a quick medical history check to ensure that you are not on any medication that may make your skin sensitive to light. LED devices can become warm on the skin. LED treatment may not be suitable for you if you suffer from melasma, epilepsy, or photosensitivity or if you are pregnant, under the age of 12, or using any type of steroids; in such cases, we can discuss other treatment options. Different patients require a different number of treatments to help improve their skin, and by maintaining a good skincare routine at home, you can help enhance the effects. We recommend 4 to 6 sessions for the best results. Each treatment lasts 30 minutes, and a great advantage is that there is no recovery time. It is a non-invasive and comfortable procedure, so speak to us at Skin Studio UK today and let us create a treatment plan for you.
