LED Phototherapy: Single Session

Service Description

Twenty minutes under the Dermalux Compact Lite, a professional only clinical system. Blue light at 415nm targets the bacteria involved in breakouts, red at 633nm supports collagen and elastin, and near-infrared at 830nm calms inflammation and supports healing. Free with any other treatment. You can usually go back to your day straight after, and nothing touches the skin. You lie under the panel with your eyes covered. On its own, LED is a gentle treatment that needs consistency: a course of six to twelve sessions, two or three a week, is where the evidence sits for acne and inflammation. One session on its own will not transform anything, and we would rather say so than sell you one. Where it earns its place is alongside something else. After needling, a peel or a laser treatment it noticeably calms redness and speeds recovery, which is why we include it free with any other treatment. It is not for everyone. If you have a light-sensitive skin condition, epilepsy triggered by light, or take a medication that makes your skin sensitive to light, tell us at consultation, as LED may not suit you. Consultations are free at our East Finchley clinic, and we will tell you honestly whether a course is worth it.
