What is LED Light Therapy & How Does it Work?
Your skin has been designed by nature to draw inspiration and information from light. As you may remember from high school science class, light is energy and energy is heat. Throughout its three distinct layers (epidermis, dermis, hypodermis), skin reacts to light and heat energy. At certain wavelengths, light penetrates to different depths where it encourages structural protein development, tightens skin, and heals blemishes.
At Pure Skin Care, our customizable LED light therapy sessions are tailored to client concerns. Light and heat energy promote blood flow, supercharge tissue repair, decrease inflammation, and reduce chronic pain—all without needles or scalpels. Better still, LED light therapy is capable of killing harmful bacteria that acne and other chronic skin conditions use for fuel. With just a few minutes of your time and the right wavelength of light, LED light therapy can treat dozens of skin concerns non-invasively.
What Does LED Light Therapy Treat?
Light Color & Effect - The Science of LED Light Therapy
To understand LED light therapy, it helps to remember that light affects different colors in different ways. Our skin gets its color from a naturally occurring pigment called melanin.
Red light affects the skin’s fibroblasts—cells responsible for promoting healthy connective tissues. Blue light, meanwhile, kills bacteria and may even reduce sebum production in those with oily skin. At Pure Skin Care, we’ll speak with you about your goals, concerns, and treatment history. Afterward, we can suggest a course of LED light therapy that’s tailored to your goals. Call us today at 801-810-4397!

At the moment, there’s still a lot we don’t understand about how individual cells react to different wavelengths of light.

Yes, thanks to its non-invasive methods, LED light therapy is safe for the vast majority of clients. LED light therapy uses multiple wavelengths of light to target individual skin concerns. Ultraviolet (UV) light is not used in this treatment.
It should also be said that the light energy is not as powerful or as concentrated as it may be for laser skin resurfacing, laser hair removal, or other light-based treatments. There is no risk of burning, singeing, or pain, placing LED light therapy among the safest non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatments.
To us, our skin looks like one solid mass. As potent as the skin barrier may be, it can be penetrated by certain forms of energy. Light energy, for instance, penetrates skin to different depths depending on its wavelength.
Red light has a longer wavelength, but can’t penetrate skin very deeply. Blue light, on the other hand, has a shorter wavelength and can penetrate skin better than red light. By understanding these principles and how they relate to heating connective tissue, supercharging collagen, and destroying bacteria, we can use LED light therapy to great effect.
