Pair this with the funky device that will make you look like you’re futuristic in the year 2165, and you have the beauty treatment every beauty lover is desperate to try.

Here you are probably wondering how exactly can a device that emits bright LED lights aid to have a clearer and brighter complexion? Better yet, transform your skin?

If you are frustrated by things like wrinkling, sagging skin, acne and inflammation. LED light therapy is a must try for you! The beauty devices have been used by our favourite celebrities like Kourtney Kardashian and Jessica Alba. You’d have to agree when we say that innovative beauty products are so much more fun. We thought we’d give you the rundown on everything you need to know about LED light therapy. What it is, how it works, and any other must-know information about this life changing skin treatment.

What is LED light therapy?

LED means light-emitting diode. LED light therapy is a noninvasive approach that works by emitting infrared lights in different wavelengths/spectrums, which have distinct skincare benefits. Red light is the most frequently used light to promote circulation. Blue light kills bacteria.

During an LED light therapy at-home treatment, the device sends light waves deep into the skin to trigger natural intracellular reactions. Depending on which light is being used, the skin will respond differently. Using the red light, your skin responds by building, strengthening and maximizing cellular structure. Red light is additionally believed to target oil glands and reduce cytokines, which are responsible for inflammation and play a role in chronic acne. If you opt to use the blue light, specific wavelengths stimulate production of oxygen radicals that kill P.acnes bacteria.

And, all of this is done without damaging the skin.

How LED light therapy works

At home LED light therapy devices have been created so you can treat skin problems at home on your own. The light doesn’t cause any burns or skin damage, it is painless with no down time.

LED light therapy harnesses the healing power of light for complete skin rejuvenation. LED light therapy works on a cellular level to tackle a huge range of skin concerns. It is really quite incredible!

What are the benefits of LED light therapy?

People are turning to LED light therapy to fix skin problems such as acne. In fact, it works well for a variety of skin conditions, from eczema, to rosacea, and so much more.

Light therapy has an extensive list of amazing benefits such as;

  • Stimulates collagen production
  • Smooths fine lines and wrinkles
  • Reduces redness and inflammation
  • Prevents breakouts by killing the acne-causing bacteria
  • Minimizes pores by regulating oil production
  • Improves appearance of scarring by promoting skin cell healing
  • Brightens skin and dark spots
  • Smooths skin texture
How to Prepare for LED Light Therapy

It’s always recommended that the skin must be cleansed and clean without any make up before LED light therapy treatment. For in-clinic treatments you will be required to wear protective eyewear to protect your eyes from the light.

LED Light Therapy vs. Microneedling

Micro-needling is another popular facial treatment to rejuvenate the skin. It can improve signs of ageing, acne, scarring and pigmentation.

The needles create microscopic wounds on the top layer of the skin and ignite the body’s natural defence is to repair the wounds, causing collagen regeneration to create new tissue and the result is a fresher, younger looking appearance.

The benefits are the same as LED light therapy, but a little more invasive.

Often facial treatment in-clinics include the combination of LED light and microneedling in one visit to effectively treat multiple skin concerns. The treated skin is exposed to LED light therapy after micro-needling or microdermabrasion to maximise results. LED light is clinically proven to stimulate cellular activity, therefore encouraging collagen production. LED light therapy will further reduce fine lines and wrinkles , improve scarring, clear blemishes, improve skin tone, and repair sun damage. Some experts might label this combination as the “perfect pair”.

At-Home vs. In Clinic

Research and clinical studies have proven that LED light therapy treatments can effectively treat a multitude of skin concerns and provide transformative results. But the results are cumulative, meaning you won’t see long-term benefits from that single salon trip you treat yourself to every so often.

In order to see long-term results then regular appointments are required, and these regular in-clinic trips are not only time consuming, but can be very expensive. If regular appointments aren’t an option, investing in a good quality at-home LED light therapy device could be the answer.

Though in-clinic LED panels are more powerful than at-home devices, it doesn't mean an at-home device won't be effective or offer the same benefits.

At-home LED devices are an excellent way to bring expensive in-clinic treatment to the comfort of your home for a fraction of the price. Remember, LED treatments deliver cumulative results, commitment is key. So this is why particularly at-home LED devices are worth your investment. They allow you to perform regular LED light therapy treatments on your skin at home, which means you’ll be able to see short term results and get long term benefits.

Are At-Home LED devices safe?

The testing for at-home devices is actually more rigorous than professional ones because the device is being cleared to use without the presence of a professional – there's a higher-level burden of proof to show efficacy and safety because a consumer is in charge of their own treatment.

An at-home device like the Q-Rejuvalight Pro Facewear is a seriously effective option to invest in.

Q-Rejuvalight Pro Facewear offers a three-minute treatment with a combination of 100 red LED lights and 62 blue LED lights; is non-thermal and does not use UV light. It’s equipped with an automatic shut off feature, heat regulators and timer.

Unlike any other device on the market, the Q-Rejuvalight Pro Facewear comes with a compatible iOS/ Android app which allows you to totally customize every treatment according to your skin concerns. Whether it be programming red lights on your forehead and eye area whilst having blue lights on your chin and nose.

With a device like this, you are able to perform daily LED light therapy treatments, totally customized to your own skin, and get maximum benefits. It’s a certain way to transform your own skin without the trips to the salons and “clinical” price tags.
