We are all influenced by the power of light. Light has many positive effects on our bodies: it helps us to produce essential vitamin D, triggers growth, promotes well-being and makes our skin glow!

Phototherapy occurs naturally all around us and is based on the principle that our cells absorb light and use it fuel natural rejuvenation and repair processes. Different wavelengths stimulate different effects in the skin. We know that on-going exposure to UV light is very damaging, but controlled levels of red, blue and near infrared light are clinically proven to be beneficial.

LED phototherapy is the application of these beneficial wavelengths into the skin’s deepest layers to energise our cells with proven rejuvenating results. It is a natural response similar to that of plant photo-synthesis through a process known as photobiomodulation. Skin cells that are energised function better and can regenerate up to 200% faster, which in turn leads to a more youthful, healthy and radiant complexion.

• Do no use any active products containing AHA, BHA, retinoids, exfoliates and enzymes.
