About this treatment
LED phototherapy uses selected wavelengths of light. Devices and settings differ. Before booking, ask what the session is intended to address and whether it is proposed on its own or alongside another treatment.
At your appointment
Suitability
Discuss your skin and any known sensitivity to light. Share relevant medicine information during the clinical consultation.
The appointment
Check the device, appointment length, positioning and any eye protection needed.
Further appointments
If a course is suggested, ask why, when it will be reviewed and what would prompt a change.
Risks & considerations
- Different LED devices cannot be assumed to have identical settings or uses.
- Light sensitivity and other individual factors should be checked before treatment.
- A non-invasive appointment still requires suitable screening and clear instructions.
Common questions
Is it the same as a home LED mask?
Not necessarily. Devices and intended uses differ; the same light colour does not make them equivalent.
Can it be added to a facial?
Ask whether the combination is suitable and whether it is included in the price.
Will one session be enough?
That depends on the purpose of the appointment and the plan discussed at assessment. A fixed result or number of sessions cannot be promised.
Your suitability needs to be assessed by a qualified practitioner. Ask about expected benefits, limitations, risks and alternatives.
