LED stands for Light Emitting Diode. It's a technology that uses different wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and provide various skin benefits. LED devices typically consist of a handheld wand or mask that emits different colored lights and is placed over the skin for a certain amount of time.
For what purpose:
LED technology is often used in the beauty industry to treat a variety of skin concerns, including acne, aging, and inflammation. Different colors of light have different effects on the skin, with red light being used for anti-aging and collagen production, blue light for acne treatment, and green light for reducing pigmentation.
How it works:
LED devices emit different colors of light that penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular activity. Red light, for example, has been shown to stimulate collagen production and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Blue light, on the other hand, has been shown to kill bacteria that causes acne, while green light can help reduce hyperpigmentation.
