There’s really isn’t anything quite like an LED facial for an amazing glow. LED light facials have become more and more mainstream over the years capturing the likes of Kate Hudson and the Kardashian-Jenner’s because of their ability to promote cellular growth leaving you with fresher, brighter more relaxed, hydrated, and energized skin. Read on for everything you need to know about LED light facials.

What is LED Light Therapy?

LED therapy is a non-invasive and pain free beauty treatment that exposes your skin to light energy, which is then in turn, absorbed into the skin’s surface at various depths. This stimulates positive reactions within the skins layers enhancing cellular growth which offers a healthy, youthful glow.

Depending on wavelengths and the types of light used, this treatment has a variety of benefits and may assist with anything from ageing skin and acne to more complex skin problems like rosacea.

Is LED Light Therapy The Right Treatment For Me?

Simple answer: Yes. Accurate answer: Completely, and here are the reasons why.

LED light therapy is a quick, pain-free and diverse treatment that’s suitable for all skin types. Your role? Kick back under a light screen while the device does all the heavy lifting – And no, we promise you won’t come out with a red tomato face. In fact, most of our clients pop in during their lunch break for a little pick-me-up.

LED therapy also uses different types of light to trigger unique responses from the body and treat a variety of skincare issues. Just like that. Whether you’re looking to treat acne scars or stumble across a non-invasive way to lift your skin and reduce wrinkles, there is an LED light treatment for you available at Gold Coast Skin Boutique.

To break it down, the three main types of light are:

Blue Light:

This type of light is generally used to combat acne as it contains antibacterial properties to minimise oil production and prevent future breakouts without irritating the skin.

Red Light:

A highly common type used in LED therapy, red light works to reduce redness and inflammation whilst it hydrates the skin. It also stimulates cellular repair and increased circulation to the face. It is also known to treat rosacea which has been said to be a godsend for most rosacea clients as it promotes skin healing and calms sensitive skin.

Yellow Light:

There’s good reason most skincare experts speak to the importance of collagen. This natural protein is the glue that holds your skin together and keeps you looking young and youthful. Put simply, yellow light is a must for your anti-aging toolkit. This light contributes to boosting collagen production as it smooths fine lines and wrinkles. It also is the pioneer for promoting skin elasticity as well as treating cystic acne and speed up any wound healing. Needless to say, our yellow light offers the best of worlds with respect to blue and red light therapy… prepare yourself for facial treatment addiction.

LED light therapy is a cutting-edge treatment that combines beauty and science to provide gorgeous skin and remind you why skin care is (literally) a beautiful thing we should all prioritise and nurture.
