frequently asked questions
If you are considering LED Light Therapy, explore some of the questions clients ask us most often. We look forward to helping you get the elite services you need.
- What is LED light therapy and how does it work?
LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive aesthetic treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity and promote skin rejuvenation. It works by delivering light energy to the skin cells, which helps to increase collagen production, improve blood circulation, and reduce inflammation, resulting in a healthier and more youthful complexion.
- Is LED light therapy suitable for all skin types?
Yes, LED Light Therapy is considered safe and does not cause any pain or discomfort.
- How long will it take to see results?
The timeframe for noticeable results with LED Light Therapy can vary depending on individual factors and the specific skin concern being addressed. You may start to see improvements after just 1 session, but we recommend a series before significant results become apparent.
- Are there any side effects?
LED Light Therapy is generally considered safe and well-tolerated with minimal risk of side effects. It does not involve UV radiation or thermal damage, unlike some other light-based treatments. However, some individuals may experience temporary redness or mild skin sensitivity immediately following a session, which typically resolves within a short time. It is always advisable to consult with a qualified professional to assess any potential risks or contraindications specific to your individual circumstances.
- How long does an LED Light Therapy session take?
LED Light Therapy sessions typically last 10-35 minutes, depending on the specific treatment area and desired results. It is a quick and convenient treatment that can easily be incorporated into a skincare treatment or alone.
- How many LED light therapy sessions are needed?
The number of LED Light Therapy sessions required can vary depending on individual goals and skin conditions. Generally, a series of 6 to 12 sessions, spaced a few days to a few weeks apart, is recommended to achieve optimal results.
