When it comes to skin health and aesthetic appearance, LED therapy has been one of the most preferred technologies in recent years. LED therapy has an important place in beauty and skin care routines thanks to its non-surgical, painless application process and the versatile benefits it provides to the skin. In our clinic, this treatment method is applied safely and effectively with the FDA approved and CE certified Dermalux® LED device.
What is LED Therapy?
LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy is based on the principle that lights of different wavelengths create biological reactions on the skin. These lights penetrate the skin layers and stimulate cell activity, supporting regeneration and repair. Each light color offers a solution to a different skin problem and provides visible improvement in the skin when applied regularly.
LED Beams
Led rays have visible colors according to their wavelengths. Specified wavelengths of LED beams are used in medicine. So not every LED beam can be used for treatment purposes. LED wavelengths used in treatments for medical use are as follows;
| Wavelength | Color | Texture Depth | Clinical Use |
| 415 nm | Blue | Superficial | Acne treatment, Antibacterial effect |
| 633 nm | Red | Middle | Collagen synthesis, skin renewal |
| 850 nm | NIR | Deep | Anti-inflammatory effect, treatment of musculoskeletal pain |
- * nm; nanometer
- **NIR; Near Infra Red
LED Therapy Devices
Not all devices that produce LED beams can be used for medical purposes. LED devices to be used for therapeutic purposes must have some important features. These are;
- Ability to produce Led beam with “fixed wavelength and intensity” according to the treatment indication
- The ability to apply the generated LED beams to the targeted tissue with sufficient dose and intensity
- Important certifications such as FDA approval and CE Certificate
The Dermalux® device we use at Aykan Clinic is a professional system that is considered the “gold standard” in LED phototherapy. This device, produced with Dermalux® technology, has all the criteria mentioned above. The following effects are created with the rays of different wavelengths (colors) produced with Dermalux® Led Therapy Devices;
- Reduces signs of aging by increasing collagen production with red light.
- The bacteria that cause acne are targeted with blue light. Especially Propionibacterium acnes, which is often responsible for acne formation, is eliminated.
- Cellular regeneration is accelerated with near infrared light and healing is achieved in deep tissues.

What Does LED Therapy Do in Aesthetics?
LED therapy is an effective and safe method used in aesthetic treatments to improve the appearance of the skin, reduce the signs of aging and treat various skin problems. This light-based technology stimulates skin cells, accelerating the natural healing and regeneration processes. One of the reasons why it is most preferred in the aesthetic field is that it is painless and does not require any healing process.
The application works in many areas, from reducing wrinkles and fine lines to acne treatment, balancing skin tone inequalities and lightening the appearance of blemishes. It also helps the skin recover faster after procedures such as laser, dermapen and mesotherapy. It increases the elasticity of the skin, giving it a firmer, brighter and more vibrant appearance. Thanks to these versatile effects, LED therapy stands out as a complementary and supportive care method in aesthetic applications.
How is LED Therapy Applied?
The application is very comfortable and simple. Before the procedure, the skin is cleaned and the appropriate light combination is determined individually. The patient starts the treatment by lying under the light panel. The procedure usually takes 20-30 minutes. No pain, soreness or discomfort is felt; no recovery time is required after the treatment. The person can return to his/her daily life immediately after the session.
Who Is It Suitable For?
LED therapy can be safely applied to a wide age range and individuals with different skin types. It is especially applied to those who have acne and acne problems, those who seek support for skin renewal and anti-aging, to reduce redness, sensitivity or edema after a surgical procedure. In addition, those who want the skin to recover faster after needle procedures such as laser and dermapen can also benefit from LED therapy. However, in some special cases, especially during pregnancy or in individuals with photosensitivity, it is recommended to get a doctor’s approval before the application.
