LED Light Therapy

What you need to know

How does it work?

It is not a laser, nor an Intense Pulse Light (IPL) but rather, a revolutionary breakthrough in skincare. Think of it as a deeper massage for that area of the skin where therapists can’t reach. Light Therapy is now extensively used by medical professionals worldwide.

How will it improve my skin?

You really will get that glow you want! Light Therapy is an ideal choice for many skin concerns including ageing, wrinkles, skin healing, psoriasis and acne. Light therapy works on the body's natural repair processes to counteract the effects of ageing and other skin concerns. Essentially it works from the inside out to plump up skin naturally. There is no downtime with this procedure, and Permaderm is a New Zealand company and one of the most recognised in the field. You can even have a treatment over your lunch break! It is the best to prevent the visible effects of ageing and maximise the benefits of skincare products, without the risks associated with more invasive treatments.

How does it feel? There are different colours, what do they do?

The first thing you will notice is how relaxing it is and a few weeks on you will see the results on your face. Light therapy is simple, harmless, relaxing and non-surgical. The Permaderm dome can be used all over the body to help treat scarring, psoriasis, pigmentation or just calm the nervous system.

How many treatments do I need and how often?
Light Therapy can be used as a single treatment to refresh the skin, just before a special occasion, or ideally, taken as a course of at least twelve treatments for optimum skin correcting and rejuvenating results. For best results, we recommend three treatments a week, over four weeks.

We also recommend light therapy post laser, Botox or fillers and or any other invasive procedures it can prolong the effects as well as speeding up the recovery from these treatments.
