What is an LED Facial and Will it Help My Skin?

 You may have heard about LED light therapy for skincare and you might be wondering if it is a good idea for you.  Light emitting diode, or LED, light therapy has been used for years by dermatologists to treat various skin conditions like acne and is becoming more popular for use by aestheticians in skincare treatment. LED facials offer many benefits for skincare and because they do not emit any ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths it is perfectly safe for use on all skin types.

LED light penetrates the skin at various depths depending on the type of light emitted. LED light therapy uses red light and blue light to treat various skin conditions. Blue light is more commonly used in treating acne as it reduces activity of the glands in your skin which produce oil, thus reducing oily skin and acne. Red light is commonly used by aestheticians during LED facials to address signs of aging such as sun damage and wrinkles. LED red light is thought to act on cells in the body that produce collagen by encouraging collagen production. Everyone loses collagen which decreases with age and contributes to signs of aging and wrinkles.
