The basic premise of LED skin therapy is that different colors trigger different reactions beneath the epidermis and penetrate the skin at varying depths. Wavelengths of red light used in our practice are used to speed up healing and stimulate collagen production, simultaneously shrinking enlarged pores and tightening the skin. LED treatments are painless, non-invasive, and require no downtime. They may be used as an effective stand alone therapy or as an adjunct to other procedures such as PRP.
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has gained popularity in recent years as a non-invasive cosmetic procedure with many benefits. PRP is used to improve skin texture, add volume to the face including under the eye region, and to heal scars more rapidly. The patient's own blood, is centrifuged to separate the platelets in their plasma. Platelet-rich plasma is rich in growth factors, which are known to stimulate the growth of collagen. Each PRP treatment is than followed with 20 minutes of Light Emitting Diode (LED) therapy to speed up healing. LED light therapy is also great for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving uneven skin tone, reducing pores size, and brightening the skin. This skin rejuvenation procedure has low to no downtime. Book an appointment with our Nurse to see if PRP and LED light therapy is right for you!
