COURSE RECOMMENDATION:  An intensive course of 12 treatments are generally recommended for all indications at a frequency of 2 sessions per week  for optimum cell activation.


TREATMENT FREQUENCY:  A 24-hour time period between treatments is generally recommended for inflammatory conditions such as acne, redness and sensitive skin, however for general skin rejuvenation, treatments can be taken in daily succession.  


COURSE FREQUENCY:  Due to cell activation, results can last for several weeks following a course of LED treatments. However, regular maintenance treatments are advised to extend your results as part of an on-going skin health programme. 

There are some circumstances, medical conditions and medications in which LED may prove to be unsuitable.


Before coming in for LED, here are some questions you may need to consider: 

  • Are you pregnant? LED systems have NOT been tested on pregnant women and therefore the risk to the foetus or pregnant women is unknown. 
  • Are you taking or applying topically any prescription medications? Certain medications can induce photosensitivity and may be contra-indicated for the treatment.
  • Have you started using any new skin care products in the last month? Certain ingredients such as vitamin A are known to increase light sensitivity and skin can go through change as it adapts to new products. 
  • Are you currently taking St John’s Wort or other herbal remedies? Taken in regular high doses, this may increase the risk of a phototoxic reaction.
  • Do you smoke? Do you have an outdoor lifestyle/activities? Do you use sunbeds? Clients who smoke, use sunbeds or have regular sun exposure are advised that additional LED treatments may be required to achieve the optimum result.
