LED light phototherapy is a gentle form of low laser therapy. Dermatologists prescribe blue, red & yellow wavelengths to gently & effectively treat conditions such as acne, rosacea, as well as promote collagen production. This can speed up wound healing & aid in skin rejuvenation.

What conditions can LED Light Therapy treat?
Light therapy or LED phototherapy can treat the following conditions-

Acne: the most frequent indication at Clinic Cutis is the treatment of acne. We employ LED, as well as vascular lasers & BBL to manage all forms of acne. Light activates chemicals produced by bacteria found in zits & pimples. This causes a chemical reaction that destroys bacteria.

How does it work?
This treatment works at a cellular level to stimulate the healing mechanisms in the skin. Red light stimulates collagen production, speeds up wound healing & reduces inflammation. This wavelength is frequently used post laser resurfacing or following skin surgery.

Blue light reduces acne bacteria, thus reducing breakouts. This treatment is ideal for patients wanting to avoid oral medications.
