LED Light Therapy
Support skin healing, calm inflammation, and improve overall skin health.
LED Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to target different skin concerns at a cellular level. It is a treatment with no downtime, often incorporated into broader treatment plans to support acne management, reduce inflammation, and improve overall skin quality.
Different wavelengths of light penetrate the skin at varying depths to help with skin healing, repair, and collagen production.
How does LED Light Therapy work?
LED Light Therapy uses low-level light energy delivered to the skin through a specialised LED device. Unlike lasers or peels, it does not damage the skin surface. Instead, it works by delivering light energy into the skin cells, where it is absorbed and converted into energy.
This process helps stimulate cellular activity, supporting the skin’s natural repair and regeneration functions. Different colours of light are used to target specific concerns.
What skin concerns can LED Light Therapy help with?
LED Light Therapy can assist with a range of skin concerns, including:
- Redness and inflammation
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Post-treatment recovery support
It is often used alongside other skin treatments to enhance results and support recovery.

What happens during treatment?
LED Light Therapy is a simple and comfortable treatment that typically takes around 20–30 minutes.
Your skin will be cleansed before you are positioned under an LED light device. The light is then activated and delivered to the skin for a set period of time. The treatment is completely painless, and most patients find it relaxing, with many describing it as warm and calming. Once the session is complete, you can return to your normal activities immediately.
