The Truth About at Home Light Therapy Devices

The Truth About at Home Light Therapy Devices

Looking to buy a light therapy device? Read this first.

At-home light therapy devices are fast gaining popularity for their beauty-boosting, complexion-enhancing powers. Whilst at-home cosmetic laser devices have been around for a while, a new breed of products have hit the market in recent years.

 

The LYMA Laser is the most effective home laser treatment on the market - more on that later - but there are some things you should look out for when selecting a device to use at home. Read on to find out more:

 

 

 

From masks to wands, light therapy comes in myriad forms. The thing that all devices have in common, however? The skin uses the light as a source of energy to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, whilst boosting circulation to the target area and accelerating tissue repair. The light encourages the rejuvenation and restoration of skin cells and fuels the skin to reject and kill the blemish-causing bacteria.

 

Often, when you treat yourself to a dermatologist-grade facial, you’ll be given a dose of light therapy as part of your treatment. But what kinds of light therapy are there? And what does each of them do?

Depending on your skincare concern and the amount of money you’re willing spend, there are a wide variety of devices on the market, but none are as effective as the LYMA Laser. We’ll explain what makes the LYMA Laser so unique - and so special.

First to the various types of light devices on the market. There are three main types of light treatment, and they fall into the following categories: ‘blue light’, ‘red light’ and ‘near-infrared light’.

Blue light is widely used in dermatological circles for its antibacterial properties and its ability to treat blemishes without pain or irritation. Blue light encourages the skin to reduce oil production, thereby preventing breakouts, and has all the benefits of the red light.

 

 

 

Combining all the benefits of the blue light, Red light is often used to naturally boost hydration levels in the skin, as well as to treat inflammation, skin redness, and discolouration. Red light can also help to regulate oil production, minimise pores, improve circulation and speed up the skin’s natural healing and repair process.

The most deeply absorbed wavelength, however, is near-infrared light. Near-infrared light can be considered superior to both blue and red light in that it can increase cell permeability and absorption, improve collagen production and elasticity, smooths and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and can vastly reduce pain and improve inflammatory skin conditions. Near-infrared light is also effective in accelerating skin repair and healing, and in defeating blemishes.

 

The LYMA Laser combines a 500mW near-infrared laser, making it a beauty-boosting powerhouse.

 

For the first time, a clinic-grade near-infrared laser can be used safely at home. LYMA’s laser technology operates at precisely 808nm and is dispersed 25,000 times through an ultra-diffused internal lens, ensuring no damage to cells (not a given when it comes to generic at-home treatments) and meaning that the LYMA Laser is even safe to use around the eye area.
