LED Light Therapy Benefits @ LUXE

What is LED Light Therapy?

It is a process that emits infrared lights on your face in different wavelengths or spectrums. What those wavelengths are is determined by the specific kind of treatment you’re looking for from LED light therapy.

If that sounds complicated, don’t worry too much, it is pretty straightforward. The light waves that are sent to your skin actually trigger certain reactions in your skin cells. These reactions are what, in turn, gives you the results you are trying to achieve. The reactions happen at the dermis layer of the skin. Your dermis layer converts the light into a fuel of sorts that the cells then use to do its job in healing the skin. Think of LED light treatment as a way to fill up your skin’s gas tank. LED light treatment speeds up your skins ability to perform its natural functions.

What kind of reactions will you get with the various light waves?

Red light

Red light helps increase collagen production. And since collagen is what makes your skin have that young supple look, this is one of the biggest benefits. The red light also increases blood flow to the skin and capillaries on the face. This promotes healing and rejuvenation, all things you want when it comes to having younger-looking skin. Red light is also used to treat scarring and rosacea. Why? Because the red light has the ability to deeply penetrate your skin, which means it gets past that first layer, stimulating healing through its ability to increase blood flow. Sounds pretty amazing!

Blue light

Blue light treats acne. Why? Because it is able to generate a high energy form of oxygen that attacks the bacteria in your skin. And that bacteria is what causes acne. And considering the high rate of success researchers have found in clinical studies, blue light as an acne treatment has proven results!

White light

Of all the lights, this is the most powerful, as it penetrates the deepest into your skin. White light is able to tighten your skin as its base layer and reduce inflammation. This gives your skin that smooth, healthy glow we all try so hard to achieve!

Amber light

While amber light may sound similar to red light in its benefits, think of it as more of a targeted light treatment. Amber light stimulates collagen and elastin production. While red light may provide the same benefit, along with a wide variety of other benefits, amber light specifically targets the skin cells and tissue that play a key role in giving your skin the young look you’re going for!

How LED treatment works

If you’re interested in getting LED light treatment and decide to go to a professional, you’ll find it a relaxing experience. Typically done after getting a microdermabrasion or some other form of facial, the esthetician will administer the light treatment directly on your face for about 15 minutes.

What Are Chemical Peels? A chemical peel is a skincare treatment that involves applying a chemical solution to the skin to exfoliate and remove the top layers. As the skin heals, the new skin that emerges is smoother and more radiant. Chemical peels can address a variety of skin concerns, from fine lines and wrinkles, to acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture. Myth 1: Chemical Peels Are Only For Severe Skin Issues Fact: Chemical peels come in different strengths, ranging from superficial peels that target the outermost layer of the skin to deeper peels that penetrate more layers. Whether you're looking to address minor skin imperfections or more significant concerns, there's likely a chemical peel that suits your needs. Even if your skin is relatively healthy, a light chemical peel can help maintain it's youthful glow and smoothness. Myth 2: Chemical Peels Are Painful And Require Extensive Downtime Fact: The level of discomfort and downtime associated with a chemical peel depends on the type of peel you choose. Superficial peels typically cause minimal discomfort, often described as a tingling sensation, and require little to no downtime. Medium and deep peels may involve more significant peeling and a longer recovery period, but the results can be more dramatic. Your skincare professional will help you choose the right peel based on your skin type and goals. Myth 3: Chemical Peels Are Unsafe For Sensitive Skin Fact: While some chemical peels might be too harsh for sensitive skin, many formulations are designed specifically for those with delicate skin. Ingredients like lactic acid, for example, are gentler and can be a good option for sensitive skin types. It's crucial to have a consultation with a licensed skincare professional who can assess your skin's needs and recommend the best type of peel for you. Myth 4: Chemical Peels Are Only For The Face Fact: Chemical peels can be applied to various parts of the body, not just the face. If you have concerns about areas like your neck, chest, hands, or even your back, chemical peels can be tailored to address those specific regions. This makes them a versatile option for anyone looking to rejuvenate their skin beyond just the facial area. Though we don't offer this at The Spa quite yet, we do hope to in the future! Why Consider a Chemical Peel? Chemical peels can offer a range of benefits, including: Smoother Skin Texture: By removing the top layer of dead skin cells, peels reveal the smoother, healthier skin underneath. Brighter Complexion: Peels can help reduce dullness and promote a more even skin tone. Improved Skin Elasticity: Regular peels can stimulate collagen production, which is essential for maintaining skin's firmness and elasticity. Acne and Blemish Reduction: Chemical peels can help clear up acne and prevent future breakouts by unclogging pores and reducing oil production. Diminished Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Over time, peels can help soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, giving your skin a more youthful look.
