Dermalux LED therapy uses clinically proven wavelengths to stimulate your skin's natural cellular processes, promoting healing and rejuvenation from within.

Stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin for firmer, younger-looking skin
Reduces inflammation and promotes faster healing of damaged tissue

Dermalux LED light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light (red, blue, and near-infrared) to stimulate cellular processes in the skin. The light energy is absorbed by cells, triggering natural healing responses, increasing collagen production, reducing inflammation, and eliminating acne bacteria. It's completely non-invasive and works at the cellular level to promote skin health.
Dermalux LED therapy is non-invasive, painless and suitable for all skin types and tones, with no known side effects. Unlike some laser treatments, there's no risk of burns, pigmentation changes, or downtime. You may experience a mild warming sensation during treatment, which is completely normal.
Dermalux LED effectively treats acne and breakouts, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, rosacea, post-treatment recovery, dull or tired skin, uneven skin tone, and general skin rejuvenation. Different light wavelengths target specific concerns - blue light for acne, red light for ageing skin, and near-infrared for healing.
Each Dermalux LED session lasts approximately 20 minutes. This includes a brief consultation to determine the best light combination for your skin concerns, positioning under the LED panel, and the actual light therapy treatment. The session is completely relaxing - many clients use it as a peaceful break in their day.
You'll notice an immediate glow after your first session, but optimal results typically require a course of treatments. We recommend a course of 6-10 sessions, one to two a week. Maintenance sessions monthly help sustain benefits long-term.
Many clients notice improved skin clarity and radiance immediately after their first treatment. For acne, improvements typically begin within 2-3 sessions. Anti-ageing benefits like improved texture and reduced fine lines become apparent after 4-6 treatments. Progressive improvements continue throughout your treatment course and beyond.
Absolutely! LED light therapy enhances other treatments beautifully. It's excellent post-microneedling for healing, after facials for enhanced results, or following chemical peels to reduce downtime. We often incorporate LED into comprehensive treatment plans. The healing properties of LED therapy make it ideal for post-treatment care.
Your session begins with a skin consultation to select the optimal light combination. You'll lie comfortably while the LED panel is positioned above your face. The treatment is completely relaxing - you may feel gentle warmth. Many clients find it so peaceful they nearly fall asleep! There's no discomfort, and you can resume normal activities immediately after.
There are minimal restrictions with LED therapy. Before treatment, avoid fake tan and arrive with clean skin. After treatment, apply SPF if going outdoors (though this is always recommended). You can apply makeup immediately if needed. Unlike other light treatments, there's no photosensitivity or special aftercare required.
LED light therapy is suitable for virtually everyone - all ages, skin types and skin tones. It's perfect for those seeking natural, non-invasive skin improvement, anyone with acne concerns, those wanting anti-ageing benefits without downtime, and people looking to enhance other treatments. Even pregnant women can safely receive LED therapy.
Each wavelength targets different concerns: Red light (633nm) stimulates collagen production for ageing skin, improves circulation, and reduces fine lines. Blue light (415nm) eliminates acne-causing bacteria and regulates oil production. Near-infrared light (830nm) penetrates deepest for healing, reduces inflammation, and enhances overall cellular function. We often combine wavelengths for comprehensive benefits.
LED therapy is highly effective for acne treatment. Blue light specifically targets and destroys P. acnes bacteria without affecting healthy skin. Many clients see reduced breakouts within 2-3 sessions, with significant improvement after a full course. Unlike harsh acne treatments, LED therapy is gentle, doesn't dry the skin, and actually promotes healing of existing blemishes.
Book LED on its own, or ask about adding it straight after microneedling or a facial to cut recovery time.
