What does Dermalux LED light therapy do?
What does LED light therapy do for you?
Medical Wavelengths
Dermalux® is the market leading company in the world for LED phototherapy. This is because Dermalux only use specific wavelengths of light that are clinically & medically proven to treat and manage.
Ceramic Cooling LED’s
Dermalux also have patented Ceramic LED lights that stay cool to ensure the skin is not heated. When skin is heated it can cause inflammatory skin concerns to get worse which is why Dermalux have cooling technology.
High Power
Other competitor LED’s are lower in power and often use different wavelengths which are not medically proven to treat/manage. This means that skin concerns may not improve or many more treatments may be required.
LED Masks
Our clinical devices cannot be compared to the LED masks that can be worn at home either as again the wavelengths and power will not be comparable. Here are the skin concerns that Dermalux Tri-wave is clinically proven to treat. The masks don’t allow the client to select single wavelengths either which means that some skin conditions could initially get worse.
Here is a list of the medical conditions that Dermalux LED Light has been clinically & medically proven to treat in hospitals today.
- Acne – Grade 1-5
- Wound Healing
- Psoriasis/Eczema
- Pain (Musculoskeletal)
- Skin Cancer
The Dermalux Tri-Wave MD® is currently used in the NHS today to treat these concerns along with burns and reducing post operative healing time. In clinic it is used to effectively treat inflammatory and distressed skin conditions whilst accelerating healing without down time. Another reason why we invested in the Dermalux Tri-wave MD® is that it is 10 times more powerful than the Dermalux Flex Hood and treatment time is also less.
WHAT MAKES DERMALUX® LED PHOTOTHERAPY DIFFERENT
Dermalux has the option of using three lights (wavelengths) which are used to target skin specific concerns. These lights can be used on their own or the practitioner can select a combination of one, two or three LED lights for optimum results. Depending on what the skin concern will depend on which light or combination of LED lights may be used. The prescription of light is essential for results. For example red light on inflamed or acne skin skin make it worse. Many competitor LED’s and the masks that are worn at home don’t all have the function of selecting one or two or three lights. This means that they could had the reverse effect on the skin.
The three lights used are red light, blue light and near infrared lights. The Dermalux Tri-Wave MD® delivers Blue 415nm, Red 633nm and Near Infrared 830nm wavelengths, these are the industry leading and most clinically evidenced wavelengths for effective LED Phototherapy results. Its these exact wavelengths of light that give the clinical results. Other competitor brands do not use these exact wavelengths which means they don’t have the clinical certification and their treatments are not as effective.
Dermalux® is heat free, chemical free and does not harm the skin. It has an excellent safety profile and is beneficial for all skin types without downtime.
