Red Light LED Therapy Skin Improvement

What is LED Light Therapy

LED is an acronym for “Light Emitting Diode” Essentially, a Red Light LED is a tiny semiconductor that emits light when a current is passed through it. Over the past few years, specialised therapeutic LEDs have been used for skin rejuvenation. Importantly, different wavelengths of LED light can be used to target various skin conditions, from acne to ageing skin. Each wavelength will penetrate to a different depth in the skin and have a different effect. The deep-penetrating, soothing LED lights are also ideal for reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improving uneven skin tone, and illuminating the skin.

Unlike laser treatments, LED light therapy is non-invasive and non-thermal, so no recovery time is required after application. Importantly, LED light therapy uses continuous light rather than pulses. This means that the LED light will not inflame the skin’s surface.

History of LED Light Therapy

NASA originally developed LED therapy

for plant growth experiments on shuttle missions. Interestingly, NASA found that LED light therapy has benefits for wound treatment. Importantly, LED light therapy is now used by many skin clinics to help regenerate the skin against the effects of aging.

Benefits of LED therapy

By improving your skin’s function,

LED light therapy accelerates healing, making it the perfect treatment to pair with your skincare routine. Importantly, LED light therapy is safe for all skin types. LED light therapy is a pain-free, non-invasive, soothing, and rejuvenating skin treatment. This treatment will help treat acne breakouts, fine lines and wrinkles, post-inflammatory scarring, and conditions such as Rosacea. Importantly, LED light therapy will not only help minimise acne, but also soothe your skin and reduce both redness and inflammation.

Using LED Red Light

One of the key colours used in LED therapy is Red light. Significantly, Red light LED therapy may improve scarring and signs of aging. It may do this by acting on “fibroblasts”, which are cells that are responsible for Collagen production. Interestingly, Collagen is a protein in the skin that plays a vital role in skin healing. The body produces less Collagen as a person ages. Ultimately, this process causes the skin to show the signs of aging.

Introducing Genova’s Ion Applicator

In addition to generating an electrical current and a vibration effect, the Genova Ion applicator also delivers LED red light therapy. By simply holding the Ion applicator in your hand and applying it to your face, the device will automatically turn itself on and instantly generate its Red LED light. The device’s light will start working immediately to drive the selected Genova cream, serum, or gel deeper into your skin than fingertips alone can.

Genova Ion Applicator

As outlined, Genova’s LED treatment uses its bright Red light-emitting diodes to deliver low-level light energy into the deeper layers of the skin. Genova’s Ion Applicator Red light LEDs will stimulate cellular activity (which gives young skin its plump look). This will visibly reduce fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, age spots, and stretch marks, as well as redness. A simple 2-minute application twice daily is all you’ll need to show dramatic improvement in your skin over time. You’ll love your results.
