• During the treatment

  LED Phototherapy is a non-invasive and pain free treatment that promotes a feeling of relaxation and wellbeing whilst rejuvenating the skin. Exposure to the light can increase serotonin levels which in turn help to relive stress, tension and headaches and any feeling of ‘heat’ is most often due to the stimulation of blood circulation.

  During your LED Phototherapy treatment your skin needs to be clean and free of all makeup. Skin care products and skin creams must be removed to allow the beneficial light to penetrate into the skin.

  LED Phototherapy is a heat free treatment that does not contain harmful UV wavelengths and therefore cannot damage skin tissue or create photosensitivity. It is clinically proven to be safe for all skin types, including darker skins and the most sensitive skin conditions.

• Following the treatment

  There is no risk of irritation, side effects or down time that may be associated with more invasive procedures. There have been no reported side effects in over 1,700 clinical studies and it does not harm the body in any way. LED Phototherapy treatment should be followed by the application of suitable skin care products including a sunscreen and makeup can then be applied.

• The Results
