LED
At No.109 The Wellness Clinic, we provide a Light Emitting Diode therapy. The device uses four different coloured high-intensity LEDs to harness specific wavelengths of light to aid a multitude of skin conditions as well as promoting healthy skin function. The wavelengths are safe and effective to penetrate deeper into the skin layers to rejuvenate aging skin, diminish dark spots, lessen scars, effectively reduce breakouts and stimulate collagen synthesis for a visibly brighter and radiant appearance with regular use.
What can different LED lights help with
RED
Clinically proved to treat signs of aging and works to reduce inflammation, calm irritation, and strengthen the skin. Stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, whilst increasing cell regeneration for a more youthful looking appearance.
BLUE
Ideal for oily and acne-prone skin, blue light therapy balances and clarifies the skin by eliminating the bacteria that causes acne. The skin texture appears more refined and smoother with regular use.
YELLOW
Boosting collagen levels, yellow LED therapy hydrates the skin and helps promote collagen production. This is the choice for treating sensitive skin as it boosts circulation and lymphatic flow (draining toxins) as well as smoothing and comforting the skin.
GREEN
Calms inflammation of the skin. Perfect for dealing with pigmentation such as age spots and reducing appearance of broken capillaries over time.
Cycle of all where the coloured lights will alternate automatically.

You will be guided through an extensive consultation and answer any questions you may have. The treatment will begin with you lying down comfortably. Your skin will be cleansed with a gentle cleanser and warm water, a serum personalised to your skins needs will be applied.
