How it works & what to expect

LED light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to support skin health — non-invasive, with no needles and no product injected. Most clients find it warm and relaxing; protective eyewear is provided.

Blue light reduces activity in the sebaceous (oil-producing) glands, which may improve acne symptoms, may help kill a type of bacteria that contributes to acne, and may help support the healing of burns.

Red light may help improve the appearance of scarring and signs of ageing such as wrinkles by acting on fibroblasts, and may help support collagen and elastin production and overall skin quality.

Most people with acne see an improvement, though not all acne is expected to clear completely. Individual results vary.

Risks & who it's not for

Not recommended for people who:

  • Are pregnant
  • Are taking certain photosensitising medications
  • Have a condition that may be aggravated by light exposure

Who it suits — and what it will not do

LED suits skin that is inflamed, congested or simply in need of support: it is calm, comfortable and has no downtime, which makes it useful on its own and useful straight after other treatments. It is one of the few things we can offer skin that is currently too reactive for anything more active.

What it will not do is worth stating. LED does not resurface, lift or remove anything. It supports the skin’s own processes gradually and works best as a course alongside a sensible routine rather than as a standalone fix for an established concern. Individual results vary.

It is not appropriate for people with photosensitivity, those taking medication that increases light sensitivity, or anyone with a history of light-triggered conditions — flag these at your consultation.

How often, and pairing it with other treatments

LED is cumulative. A run of sessions close together — often weekly for several weeks — tends to be more useful than an occasional one-off, with maintenance after that.

It pairs particularly well as a finishing step after skin needling or a peel, when skin is receptive and calming support is welcome. We will suggest where it fits in your plan rather than selling it as a standalone course.

Good to know

Does it hurt, and is there downtime?

Neither. You lie under the light with eye protection for the session — most people find it warm and relaxing, and you can go straight back to your day with makeup on.

Is it as good as an at-home LED mask?

In-clinic devices deliver more power over a larger area in a shorter time, so a course generally does more than home use. Home devices still have a place for maintenance between visits, and we are happy to say which is worth your money.

What is LED light therapy?

It is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to support skin health. There are no needles and no product is injected.

Is there any downtime?

Typically none — most clients return to their normal day immediately. Some people experience mild, short-lived redness.

What does it feel like?

Most clients find it warm and relaxing. Protective eyewear is provided for the session.

How many sessions will I need?

LED is usually performed as a series of sessions for best results, and is often combined with other treatments. Your plan is confirmed at consultation, and results vary between individuals.

Who is it suitable for?

Most skin types can be treated, but some light-sensitive conditions and medications are contraindicated — your practitioner checks this at your consultation.
