LED therapy – Light treatment to regenerate and soothe the skin

What is LED therapy?
LED therapy (or photobiomodulation) is a non-invasive technology that uses light to stimulate skin cells.
Unlike lasers or pulsed light, LED does not heat the tissue: it emits cold light at different wavelengths that gently penetrate the skin and trigger natural biological reactions.
It is a gentle, relaxing treatment that is surprisingly effective at restoring radiance, regulating inflammation and supporting natural repair processes.
How does LED work?

Each colour of light acts on a different depth of the skin:
Red light (630-660 nm) – stimulates collagen and elastin production, improves firmness and reduces fine lines.
Blue light (415 nm) – targets acne-causing bacteria, purifies the skin and soothes inflammation.
Yellow light (590 nm) – promotes circulation, restores radiance to the complexion and reduces redness.
Infrared light (850 nm) – acts more deeply to stimulate cell regeneration and healing.
The secret of LED therapy lies in regularity: cells ‘read’ this light and activate their repair mechanisms, as if the skin were regaining its natural rhythm.

What skin types is it suitable for?
LED treatment is suitable for all skin types, including the most sensitive, reactive or acne-prone skin.
It is an ideal option for:
Mature skin showing loss of tone or fine lines;
Oily or acne-prone skin, with inflammation and scarring;
Sensitive skin suffering from redness or mild rosacea;
Dull, tired or dehydrated skin after stress or sun exposure.
At our Beauté Laser Laval centre, LED is often combined with other treatments such as OxyGeneo, microneedling or anti-ageing treatments to enhance results.
Visible Benefits
From the very first sessions, skin appears brighter, softer, and soothed.
After a complete program (6 to 10 sessions), the results are cumulative:
Increased collagen production;
Improved elasticity;
Reduction of acne and blemishes;
Faster healing;
Reduction of redness and sensitivity;
Visibly radiant and even skin tone.
LED therapy works painlessly, without heat, and without interrupting your daily activities.
What to Expect During a Session
A session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes.
After gentle cleansing, the skin is exposed to light tailored to its specific needs: red for anti-aging, blue for acne, and yellow for brightening.
The treatment is pleasant, often described as a "light break": very gentle warmth, calm breathing, and a profoundly relaxing effect.
For lasting results, a course of 6 to 8 sessions, spaced one week apart, is recommended, followed by a maintenance session per month.
Combination with other treatments
LED therapy perfectly complements modern aesthetic treatments:
After microneedling, it soothes the skin and accelerates recovery.
Combined with OxyGeneo or a gentle peel, it enhances radiance and hydration.
After laser hair removal, it reduces redness and promotes regeneration.
Thanks to its gentleness, LED therapy can be integrated into almost any aesthetic routine without risk of irritation.
Contraindications
Even though LED therapy is very safe, certain precautions are necessary:
Pregnancy or breastfeeding (as a precaution);
Photosensitive conditions or use of photosensitizing medications;
Presence of open lesions or active skin infection;
Pacemaker or medical phototherapy treatment.
Before each treatment, a brief consultation allows us to assess your medical history and tailor the protocol.
Expert Advice
To get the most out of LED therapy, it is essential to maintain a regular schedule and good hydration.
Light acts as a "signal": the more consistently the skin receives this signal, the more it regenerates itself.
Keep yourself well-hydrated, protect yourself from the sun, and your skin will retain its radiance for a long time.
