LED Photomodulation Therapy for Dull Skin

WHAT CAUSES DULL SKIN

Although very common among older individuals, dull skin is not limited to them. Many factors may cause dull skin, but the most common is simply a lack of sleep (under 7 hours), which is almost normal if you lead a buys lifestyle. This can lead to wrinkles, eye bags and dark eye circles beginning to form, and becoming worse if your skin is dehydrated since dead skin cells continue to pile up.

A diet that is not well-balanced can also lead to dull skin since your body is not getting the vitamins and minerals needed to heal itself. Overexposure to the sun and not cleaning your skin properly can also result in skin appearing dull.

WHAT IS LED LIGHT THERAPY?

Light therapy is becoming increasingly popular all around the world, as it gives you results that appear all natural without being invasive. It penetrates your skin at the correct depth through the light, which triggers cell functions in your body that helps to increase the rate of skin rejuvenation and healing. It is also versatile, allowing it to treat various conditions simultaneously.

Your skin is not harmed by the treatment, with studies showing light therapy to be completely safe. This technology has also been utilised by NAVY Seals and NASA to regenerate muscle and heal wounds. It helps to improve the rate of collagen and elastin production in the skin, and promotes the growth of skin cells which can replace dead skin cells at a quicker rate. This means your face appears and feels rejuvenated as fresh skin cells are being formed.

HOW IT WORKS

Similar to photosynthesis, your body requires sunlight to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP); this is used as the fuel for metabolic reactions that synthesises enzymes, essential proteins and more. The skin tissue also makes use of ATP to speed up the healing and rejuvenation process in the outlined treatment area.

The results depend on your age, physical condition, lifestyle and diet. Visible improvements may need up to 8-10 sessions before they are noticeable, but some people have noticed changes almost immediately. However, gradual improvements should be noticeable after each session, allowing you to see the difference before and after treatments.
