L.E.D (light emitting diode) Therapy, also known as red light therapy or phototherapy, is widely used for skin rejuvenation and healing. This quick, non-invasive and totally pain free treatment is used to improve a wide range of skin concerns from ageing and sundamage like; fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation, facial redness and a sallow complexion. L.E.D light therapy also targets specific inflammatory skin conditions such as; Rosacea, Psoriasis, Dermatitis, Eczema, Acne Rosacea and Acne.

Designed and manufactured in the UK, not Korea like the Healite, our LED is designed and manufactured to the highest quality standard to ensure safe and consistent clinical results.
The 8 wrap around LED panels ensure the wavelengths delivered are focused and precisely controlled, delivering the desired intensity and dose with proven results.
Unlike the Omnilux and Healite, the Dermalux is the only LED on the market that can simultaneously deliver all three proven wavelengths to target a wide range of skin conditions while increasing efficacy and quicker treatment times.
Not all LEDs are created equal so please do your homework. Our LED Light Therapy uses only clinically proven wavelengths delivered at the optimised intensity and dose enabling effective photobiomodulation of targeted cells and skin tissue with proven results.
Dermalux® is the ONLY system on the market that can deliver all 3 clinically proven wavelengths simultaneously.
For advanced results, Dermalux® uniquely enables these beneficial wavelengths to be delivered simultaneously to target multiple concerns in each session. This unique capability extends the range of treatment options available and ensures superior results with reduced treatment time.
Rejuvenating Red light accelerates cell renewal and repair, boosting collagen and elastin synthesis for smoother, firmer skin.
Exposure to Red light at 633nm is clinically proven to increase the body’s natural form of cellular energy (ATP) which in turn “kick starts” cells to regenerate faster. Red light is potently absorbed by fibroblasts increasing collagen and elastin synthesis and boosting natural hydration levels. It also improves blood flow for increased tissue oxygenation and the lymphatic systems to eliminate toxins. Red light offers immediate visible results; skin feels hydrated and plump and radiance is restored.
Blemish fighting Blue light destroys the bacteria which causes spots and helps in the prevention of breakouts.
Exposure to Blue light at 415nm interacts with the p.acnes bacteria creating a photodynamic reaction which results in bacterial destruction. It also helps to balance sebum production and improve skin clarity.
Exposure to Near Infrared light at 830nm triggers the skins anti-inflammatory processes to accelerate repair and reduce irritation and redness. Near Infrared light builds strength and integrity for compromised, environmentally damaged and sensitive skin conditions. It is also clinically effective in the treatment of age spots and hyperpigmentation.
Dermalux® LED Phototherapy offers immediate visible improvement to the skin; instantly revitalising a dull and tried complexion and calming redness and irritation.
Results with any LED system are cumulative and a course of treatments taken in close succession is recommended for optimum results. For most skin conditions, 2 weekly treatments over 4 weeks has proven to show optimal results.
Regular maintenance treatments offer lasting improvement in the appearance and health of the skin.
No LED is not painful and most clients find it relaxing and usually fall alseep.
LED Light Therapy utilises light emitting diodes, a cold light that produce a low amount of energy over a long period of time (20 minutes). Therefore, unlike LASER, where the energy is delivered high and quick to burn the target tissue, LED is delivered low and slow to stimulate the target tissue to encourage healing.
LED treatments can range from 10 minutes to 30 minutes, however most skin conditions reach the optimal treatment level in 20 minutes.
LED Light Therapy can be used on almost any skin from sensitive, reactive to thickened, sundamaged skin. Any skin condition that requires healing and rejuvenation will benefit from the healing power of LEDs.
Clients that have epilepsy will need a Doctor's Certificate for treatment clearance.
If you suffer from light enduced headache/migraines, please let your therapist know prior to your LED treatment.
Certain medications that cause photosensitivity may need prior Doctor's clearance, please consult your therapist.
Clients on Anti-arthritic medications; Ridaura and Gold 50 cannot have LED light therapy.
Pregnant and breast feeding clients can have LED Light Therapy, however if you are unsure please consult your doctor prior to your LED treatment.
There is no downtime or recovery time after LED Light Therapy treatments. Immediately after the treatment your skin will look normal and may be mildly warm and flushed.
To ensure maximum light penetration and an efficace treatment, make sure you arrive to your appointment with freshly cleansed, exfoliated and makeup free skin. If you are time poor, we can do this for you, simply ask for one of our treatment boosters.
Lay back and close your eyes. In your own private room, on our erginomical, heated beds, your eyes will be sheilded from the bright lights with goggles. Your tailored LED treatment program will include 20 minutes of continuous Red, Blue +/ IR lights. After your treatment an antioxidant rich, hydrating moisturiser and sun protection is applied.
LED does not use the wavelengths that emit Ultra Violet Radiation <300nm, or any other forms of radiation such as x-rays or gamma rays.
The differences between positive and negative effects of light are the amount and the parts of the light spectrum we are exposed to. Ongoing exposure to UV is very damaging but controlled levels of red, blue and near infrared light are clinically proven to be beneficial.
The Dermalux® treatment involves exposing the skin to low levels of this beneficial light energy from the visible and infrared part of the light spectrum which energise cellular functions to stimulate various cellular processes with therapeutic effects.
No there are no age restrictions for LED light therapy, as long as you are with your child throughout the LED treatment and they are comfortable. This is an amazing treatment for children for inflammatory skin conditons such as eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis, including teenage acne.
