Which LED light is best for broken capillaries?

TL;DR: Both red and infrared LED light are ideal for broken capillaries. Just pay attention to light quality (i.e. wavelength accuracy) and light intensity, for best results.

Which LED light is best for thread / spider veins

Red and infrared wavelengths are equally good for broken capillaries (spider/thread veins)

Both red (around 630nm wavelength) and near infrared (around 830nm wavelength) light have been widely researched for the action on capillary health and integrity.

Of course, existing broken capillaries cannot be repaired but red / infrared LED treatment will help prevent further capillary damage.

By helping break down the by-products of leaked blood from broken capillaries, red/infrared light can also help with the dark pigmentation that occurs in those cases.

The combination of red and infrared is ideal, with LED light intensity also playing a big role

The combination of red and infrared light is ideal and light intensity should be adapted to each individual case, not too high, neither too low.

As most low-end LED devices offer a fraction of the light intensity claimed and also as wavelengths can be quite off from what is claimed, it is a good idea to choose your clinic carefully, to ensure high-end equipment is used, by a well trained therapist.

We have even seen a huge difference in results between professional, high-power LED equipment and home-use, low power ones, even if the home-use equipment is of high calibre.
