WHAT IS LIGHT EMITTING DIODE THERAPY?
Light Emitting Diode Therapy, commonly known as LED therapy, is a form of phototherapy which involves the application of low power monochromatic and non-coherent light to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and dark spots. According to NASA® studies, LED Light Therapy stimulates the skin”s fibroblasts to produce 150% to 200% collagen and elastin proteins. Unlike laser technology that relies on high-power coherent light to create heat energy, LED triggers the body to convert light energy into cellular energy without thermal injury to tissues. Unlike laser resurfacing, light therapy is non-invasive, causes no inflammation and requires no special post treatment procedures. It has been proven in the medical field to be a highly effective treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin and the improvement of skin texture, as well as brown spots associated with aging and sun damaged skin.
