LED Light Therapy

LED (light-emitting diode) is a well-recognised cosmetic and medical treatment that delivers a dosage of specific narrowband light to targeted areas of the skin to promote healing, stimulate collagen production and to treat a variety of conditions including acne and rosacea.

LED works by using evidence based, medically optimised, red, blue and near infrared wavelengths which have the ability to target specific cells and tissue.

Blue LED is primarily used in the treatment of acne. Blue LED works to fight off and destroy P.acnes, the  bacteria that causes acne in the skin. It is also proven effective in reducing pore size and balancing sebum production.

Red LED accelerates cell renewal and repair by stimulating fibroblasts to form collagen and elastin.  It is clinically proven to increase the body’s natural form of cellular energy (ATP) which kickstarts cells to regenerate faster. The red wavelength is the colour of choice for general skin rejuvenation. 

Yellow LED increases the production of red blood cells, which plays a vital role in improving lymphatic drainage, accelerating wound healing, and improving overall skin rejuvenation and hydration. It penetrates the skin just deep enough to reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen production, brighten the complexion, and improve your skin tone and texture.

NIR LED (near infrared) wavelength has even more photo-biostimulatory effects. Deep tissue penetration of NIR light stimulates a photochemical reaction within cells that triggers collagen formation and produces systemic healing effects. The process increases blood flow and oxygenation while improving mitochondrial function, energy production, and cell regeneration.

We highly recommend this treatment prior to any important life events to help manage acne and/or wound healing. Add this treatment onto any of your Kanvasd treatments for just $60 and enjoy your healed results sooner!
