LED Light Therapy: How Can It Help Me?

LED (light emitting diode) therapy is commonly used by estheticians, dermatologists, plastic surgeons,
and pain management specialists for a multitude of health & beauty benefits.

Benefits of LED light therapy:

  • Pain Management

    • Chronic and/or arthritic pain, muscle spasms, joint stiffness, increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, ease muscle pain, enhance overall cell performance, improved exercise tolerance

  • Anti-Aging

    • Diminish wrinkles, rejuvenate skin, increased collagen

  • Skin Care

    • Sun damage, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, rough precancerous spots on the skin

  • Acne Treatment

    • Acne & acne vulgaris (scars)

  • Hair restoration

    • Thinning hair, hair loss, prevent further hair loss, Androgenetic Alopecia (pattern balding), and more!

  • Wound Healing

Pain Management

Low-level light therapy uses specific, proven wavelengths to stimulate tissue that have been shown to increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, ease muscle pain, relieve joint stiffness, and enhance overall performance.

Light energy spreads deep into the muscle and stimulates the release of nitric oxide, causing blood vessels to increase in diameter (vasodilation), and allow more blood flow, oxygen, and more to travel through your body efficiently.

The increase in oxygen & nutrients activates pain-relieving pathways, leaving you feeling more relaxed and less in pain.

Anti-Aging

As we age, we lose collagen, which can cause skin deterioration, arthritis, inflammation, chronic joint & muscle pain, and keratosis.

Red + near-infrared light wavelengths of light energy are clinically proven to activate the fibroblast cells, which enhances your body's natural ability to generate collagen and elastin.

People usually see a reduction in fine lines & wrinkles within 4-12 weeks.

Skin Care

Acne

Blue LED light therapy, especially combined with red light therapy, emits clinically-proven specific wavelengths of light, which kill acne-causing bacteria, lowers inflammation, and improves skin tone & texture from the inside-out.

Skin Conditions

People with a variety of skin conditions can benefit from LED light therapy: mild-to-moderate acne scars, sun damage, rosacea, psoriasis, eczema, rough precancerous spots on the skin, and more!

In just a matter of a few weeks, people have seen an overall improvement in skin appearance & reduction of lesions.

Wound Healing

Low light therapy has been shown decrease a patient’s recovery time + fight infection while reducing discomfort levels and enhancing overall outcomes.

It has been found to accelerate tissue repair, decrease wound size, accelerate closing wounds, as well as other benefits.

LED Light Therapy is helpful for wounds like:

  • Surface wounds existing at the outer 2mm of the skin

  • Diabetic ulcers

Hair Restoration

Light therapy for hair can be an effective treatment on its own or in addition to medication & topical prescriptions for optimal hair regrowth.

Photobiomodulation (PBMT) wavelengths in the visible red spectrum can increase cell stimulation, which helps restore and normalize cellular functions and reduce inflammation.

Light therapy is mostly used as a supplemental treatment to existing treatments and procedures (prescriptions, PRP, stem cells, transplant surgery, etc) for maximized hair growth, but can also be used on its own as an effective treatment for hair loss.

Okay, it sounds good! But, why else should I try it?
