What are the Benefits of a Swedish Massage?

LED stands for light emitting diode and can be used for a type of light therapy that is known for providing many healing benefits to various skin conditions. LED light therapy facials are commonly used by experienced aestheticians and dermatologists. LED light therapy can regenerate the skin and treat different skin conditions including acne. LED light facials use different wavelengths of red and blue light without any damaging ultraviolet (UV) rays.


LED Red Light Facial Benefits


LED red light provides many benefits when used in LED facials such as reducing signs of aging by reducing wrinkles and can also reduce signs of scarring. LED red light addresses cells in the body called fibroblasts, which are responsible for making collagen. Collagen is a protein that helps to heal the skin and is found in the skin’s connective tissue.  Collagen production decreases as people age which causes the skin to lose elasticity and show signs of aging like sagging skin. LED red light therapy is thought to encourage collagen production by acting on these fibroblasts.


LED Blue Light Facials


Blue light from LED is thought to reduce activity of the sebaceous glands which produce oil in the skin. Blue light LED facials help to reduce this oil production and kill certain types of bacteria in the skin which helps to reduce inflammation and treat acne.

LED light facials penetrate the skin at different levels based on the type of light used to repair damage and help heal skin. LED light facials can be used for different skin issues including:


  • Sunspots and sun damage

  • Dull skin

  • Signs of scarring

  • Dermatitis

  • Eczema

  • Psoriasis

  • Acne

  • Wound healing

  • Skin inflammatory conditions

Just because cooler weather comes with fall and winter months, and maybe we do not wear the strappy sandals of summer, this is no reason to not continue with your pedicure foot treatments.  The way your feet look after a pedicure is only one small benefit of quality foot treatments.  A wonderful bonus is that your feet look amazing, and you can show them off in warm, summer months.
