Have you tried countless creams, lotions, and medications that haven’t given you the acne-free skin you’re longing for? If so, there is an unconventional acne treatment you should try. LED light therapy may be just what you need to clear your skin and achieve the smooth, healthy complexion you’ve always wanted.
It’s a safe, non-invasive treatment that has helped many acne sufferers achieve their best skin yet. Keep reading to learn more about acne LED light therapy and how it works.
What is LED Light Therapy?
During LED light therapy, two different lights are used to treat acne breakouts. While the blue light targets acne bacteria deep beneath your skin and reduces the activity of your oil glands, the red light reduces inflammation and redness.
At Renew MD, we use six Blue and Red light treatments as well as a chemical peel or microdermabrasion treatment, facial cleansing, and up to 6 salicylic treatments to generate incredible results for our acne patients.
Although the LED portion of the treatment can be completed in 30 to 45 minutes, the other treatments will lengthen the time. There is no downtime so you can resume work and your daily activities right away. We only ask that you wear sunscreen and stay out of the sun as much as possible after treatment.
Results From LED Light Therapy
You may not see noticeable results after one treatment. The good news, however, is that, after three to four treatments, your acne breakouts will likely fade. To maintain long-term results, you may require additional LED treatments and be required to adhere to an at-home regiment. We’ll work with you to design a customized treatment for your unique needs.
Good Candidates for LED Light Treatments
If you’ve been bothered by acne and not been able to achieve the results you desire with over-the-counter and prescription creams and medications, LED light treatments may be a good option. We highly recommend these treatments to men and women who break out on a regular basis.
