You may have purchased expensive over-the-counter skin products and treatments hoping to improve the health and appearance of your skin. Maybe you want to banish wrinkles, or minimise discolouration. Maybe you need an effective product to win the war against breakouts.
You are not alone. Consumers put a lot of their hope and their money into the latest, greatest products, hoping to find a solution to their personal skin issues. Sometimes, the results fall short of the promises.
Before you give up hope of finding the right product, you may want to consider LED light therapy. LED light therapy is a safe, effective, non-invasive treatment that can transform your complexion.
The Benefits of Light Therapy
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) penetrate the skin. Your skin responds as the LEDs stimulate your skins natural reaction. The reaction of your skin is determined by the colour of the light. LEDs do not get hot, so the exposure to these lights will not burn your skin and will not expose your skin to UV radiation.
Each colour LED represents a different wavelength in the spectrum. Each colour provides different benefits.
Fight Acne with Blue Light
Acne is caused by dead skin cells that trap bacteria in your pores. The trapped bacteria triggers an immune system response. This response is what forms the acne when your immune system targets the bacteria and tries to eliminate it.
In the lab, more than 99.9 percent of acne-causing bacteria is eliminated by blue LED light. Blue light is not quite as effective on the skin as it is in the lab, but the results are still impressive. The blue light penetrates below the skin surface and kills the bacteria, preventing the reaction of the immune system and preventing the acne from forming.
Blue light therapy works quickly. Some people who have tried blue light for their acne have noticed visible results within 24 hours.
Blue light therapy is also shown to help treat some forms of skin cancer, reduce acne scars, and reduce depression.
The Anti-Aging Benefits of Red
Most signs of ageing seen on the face are the result of collagen loss. You may try to supplement your collagen with creams and lotions, but the molecules are too large to absorb into your skin.
For anti-ageing benefits try red light therapy. Studies show red light to be an effective source of skin rejuvenation. Red light absorbs 8-10 mm into your skin and stimulates the production of collagen. With the increase of collagen and elastin, wrinkles smooth, fine lines plump and fade away. As the skin is revitalised, your face can appear firmer.
Red light therapy is also used to reduce inflammation, speed wound healing, and control hair loss.
Banish Dark Spots and Hyperpigmentation with Green
Age spots are caused by the overproduction of melanin deep within your skin. Since age spots are most often found in the areas exposed to sunlight, they are believed to be caused by UV damage from repeat sun exposure.
Green light therapy reduces dark spots and hyperpigmentation by decreasing the production of melanocytes, the melanin forming cells found in the lower level of the dermis. These melanocytes are responsible for creating age spots. As less melanin is produced, the dark patches fade. Green light therapy can also be used to lighten freckles, reduce inflammation and calm redness.
More than one LED therapy can be used to benefit your skin. Red light therapy can be used to stimulate collagen, followed by green light therapy to reduce hyperpigmentation. LED therapy is safe and effective, and there is no risk of damage to the skin.
