LED Light Therapy
Everything you should know about one of the industry’s most popular at-home treatments
The LED Revolution
First used by NASA in the 80s to assist with plant growth, after much clinical development, LED has now become an increasingly accessible treatment for a number of skin concerns. Using a combination of coloured wavelengths, LED light therapy triggers the body’s natural repair and rejuvenation process.
Professional LED treatments can set you back quite a bit. However, it’s now possible to achieve salon-quality results from LED light therapy whilst in the comfort of your own home - thanks to continuous technological advancements.
