What Is It: 

LED Phototherapy has long been known for its healing and anti-inflammatory properties. LED (which, if you’re curious, stands for light-emitting diode) phototherapy devices emit varying wavelengths of light that can penetrate your skin to trigger changes at the molecular level. Cool, huh? Energy is absorbed into the skin to stimulate processes which have proven skin enhancing benefits. There are various light types (Blue, Red, Near-Infrared & Tri-Wave) which treat various skin conditions. 

The best, most-studied of the LED lights are red and blue lights. Specific combinations of light stimulate collagen production, destroy acne causing bacteria, reduce inflammation, increase hydration, improve skin laxity, texture and clarity and ease muscular and joint pain. 

• If you're trying to boost collagen production to help with fine lines and wrinkles, choose an LED device that uses Red light. 
• If your main concern is killing acne-causing bacteria, go with a mix of blue and red lights (red light is also anti-inflammatory, which means you'll commonly find Red and Blue lights used together to tackle acne breakouts.
