What is LED phototherapy?

LED photo­therapy is a non-invasive treatment method that uses different coloured LED light to target the skin. The technology is based on the principle of photo­bio­mo­du­lation – a scien­ti­fi­cally proven process in which light waves of specific wavelengths penetrate deep into the skin layers and activate cellular processes there.

At Aesthetics Medical in Zurich, we use the Healite II system, one of the most advanced LED photo­therapy devices on the market. Unlike conven­tional laser therapies or solariums, the skin is not heated, which completely elimi­nates skin damage, pain or irritation. The treatment is therefore one of the gentlest and safest methods for all skin types.

Effec­ti­veness according to light colour:

Yellow light penetrates the skin with a wavelength that is parti­cu­larly effective in relieving inflammation and accele­rating wound healing. It has a soothing effect on irritated skin, reduces redness and is parti­cu­larly effective for active acne. It also stimu­lates lymphatic drainage and supports the removal of metabolic waste products.

Red light has the longest wavelength and penetrates deepest into the skin. It activates fibro­blasts – the cells respon­sible for the production of collagen and elastin. This leads to firmer, more elastic skin and visibly reduces wrinkles and signs of ageing. At the same time, red light promotes blood circulation and can stimulate hair follicles on the scalp.

The positive effects of LED photo­therapy have been confirmed in numerous scien­tific studies. The treatment is ideal as a stand-alone therapy or as a comple­mentary measure after other aesthetic treat­ments such as peels or micro­needling. LED photo­therapy is also parti­cu­larly popular as a quick skin refresh before important events – for an instant glow effect.

LED photo­therapy procedure

1. Consul­tation and skin analysis

First, we analyse your skin type, skin condition and individual concerns. Together, we determine which light colour and treatment plan are best suited to your needs. We also discuss the expected results and the recom­mended number of treatments.

2. Prepa­ration

Depending on the treatment area, you will assume a semi-seated or lying position. If necessary, your skin will be thoroughly cleansed to remove any make-up residue, dirt or sebum. This ensures that the light can penetrate the skin optimally. In certain cases, your eyes will be covered with special protective goggles.

3. LED light treatment

The Healite II device is positioned at the optimal distance above your skin. The LED light rays now begin to penetrate deep into your skin layers and activate cellular processes there. All you feel is a gentle, pleasant light on your skin – without any heat, tingling or burning. The treatment is completely relaxing and painless.

4. Debriefing and care recommendations

After the treatment, we will discuss the most important care instruc­tions with you. Consi­stent sun protection with SPF 50+ is parti­cu­larly important in the first week after treatment. You can resume your normal activities immediately – there is no downtime.

5. Follow-up appoint­ments (optional)

For optimal and long-lasting results, we generally recommend a series of 4-6 treat­ments at four-week intervals. For acute skin problems such as acne, a shorter treatment interval may be advisable initially.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

No, the treatment is completely painless and is considered very pleasant. You will only feel the gentle light on your skin – without any heat, tingling or burning. Many patients even find the treatment relaxing.

Many patients notice improved skin freshness and a natural glow immediately after the first treatment. However, the full effect unfolds over several treat­ments. After 2-3 sessions, more noticeable impro­ve­ments in wrinkles, acne or pigment spots are visible.

The results usually last for 4-6 weeks. For long-term and cumulative effects, we recommend regular treat­ments every four weeks. Many patients integrate LED photo­therapy as an integral part of their skincare routine.

For optimal results, we recommend a series of 4-6 treat­ments at four-week intervals. You can then continue the treatment as maintenance therapy every 4-6 weeks. In cases of active acne, a shorter treatment interval of 1-2 weeks may be advisable initially.

LED photo­therapy is suitable for all skin types – from very fair to dark skin. As the skin is not heated and no UV radiation is used, the treatment is also ideal for sensitive skin.

After treatment, you should avoid direct sunlight for about a week or use a high-quality sunscreen with SPF 50+. Otherwise, there are no restric­tions – you can apply make-up again immediately and resume your normal activities.

LED photo­therapy is one of the safest aesthetic treat­ments available. There are no known negative effects on health. The treatment is non-invasive and does not cause skin irritation, rashes or other undesi­rable reactions.

Absolutely! LED photo­therapy is one of the most popular treat­ments for quickly refreshing your skin before important occasions. Your skin will immediately appear fresher, more radiant and naturally glowing. Ideal 1-2 days before weddings, photo shoots or other special events.

LED photo­therapy uses targeted thera­peutic light without UV radiation. Unlike a solarium, it does not tan the skin and does not cause any UV-related skin damage. LED treatment is medical and speci­fi­cally activates healing and regene­ration processes in the skin.

Red light can promote blood circulation in the scalp and stimulate hair follicles, which can support hair health and growth. LED photo­therapy is a non-invasive supplement for thinning hair, but it is not a substitute for medical hair loss treatment.

The treatment is very safe, but there are a few excep­tions: it should not be carried out in cases of acute skin infec­tions, open wounds in the treatment area or certain light-sensitive condi­tions. Pregnant women can usually undergo the treatment without any problems.
