Are LED Facial Treatments Safe?

LED facial treatment has now become the popular skincare treatment in recent years, including LED Masks and other therapeutic devices that offer a range of benefits to the skin. It helps to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne and improve overall skin complexion. 

But with any skincare trend coming, there arises a question stating, “Will it be safe and effective?” Read this article to clear your doubts and explore the benefits and risks of LED facial treatments and LED face masks.

The Science Behind LED Treatments for the Skin

LED (Light-Emitting Diode) therapy is a non-invasive skincare treatment that stimulates the skin’s natural healing process using various colours of light. Different wavelengths of light are known to penetrate the skin at different depths, where they can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, reduce inflammation, and kill acne-causing bacteria.

The most common colours used in LED therapy are red, blue, green, and orange.

1. Red light helps in collagen production and reduce inflammation.

2. Blue light is proven to control mild to moderate acne.

3. Orange light is often used to reduce signs of ageing and improve skin complexion.

4. Green light treats skin sensitivity and helps in skin brightening.

Are LED Face Masks Safe to use at home?

The answer is simply yes, as long as you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and safety precautions, DIY LED Masks are perfectly okay to use at home. The basic guidelines are wearing protective goggles, not using the device for too long, and selecting the right colour of light for your skin problem.
