Advanced red light therapy treatments in London

Have a high-power LED Light Therapy treatment with the experts, at LipoTherapeia

Advanced blue, infrared & red light LED therapy in the heart of London with the best equipment in the world and science-based protocols

LipoTherapeia offers the most advanced infrared/red light treatments with:

  • the best (and most expensive) LED equipment in the world

  • advanced, science-based protocols

…skilfully applied without compromises or cut corners, for maximum results, naturally.

LED light therapy, variously referred to as photobiomodulation (PBM), LED light therapy, red light therapy, infrared light therapy and low-level light therapy (LLLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses light (LEDs) to stimulate cellular activity and promote skin and whole body wellness.

Our high-power LED light therapy treatments (up to 200mw/cm2) are based on a bespoke combination of the 3 most researched light therapy wavelengths:

  • Near infrared light at 830nm, ideal for treatment of the epidermis

  • Red light at 415nm, ideal for treatment of the epidermis, dermis and hypodermis

  • Near infrared light at 633nm, ideal for treatment of the dermis, hypodermis, subcutaneous fat, fascia and muscles

The combination of these 3 wavelengths, for treatment of all three skin layers, as well as deeper tissues such as fat, fascia and muscles, is called tri-wave LED light therapy.

(Please note we do not offer treatment on un-researched or poorly researched light wavelengths, such as yellow, orange, green, violet, turquoise, purple etc, where evidence is severely lacking and patient safety may be compromised. The 3 wavelengths that we use are researched by literally tens of thousands of studies.)

What can high-power LED light therapy do for me? How does it feel? Does it work from the first session?

The combination of these three proven wavelengths (415nm, 633nm, 830nm) is called tri-wave light therapy.

The treatment is a relaxing, pain-free experience with proven mood-enhancing effects.

From the first session skin cells are literally energised to restore vitality and calm irritation - in addition to maximising the results of other energy-demanding treatments, such as deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation.

This is due to the effect of red and infrared light radiation on mitochondria, the cells’ energy powerhouses, which it stimulates. This effect has been proven by multiple studies.

Even one treatment is enough for a relaxing, mood boosting, face rejuvenating experience - and even for an immediate calming of acne (even severe acne) and irritated/red skin. Musculoskeletal pain also eases after a strong infrared LED light treatment.

A course of 8-16 sessions taken 1-3 times a week (with a minimum of 1-day gap) is recommended for powerful visible and lasting results (6-12 sessions when combined with RF/cavitation).

Tri-wave LED light therapy can help:

  • Stimulate collagen and elastin production: even more so immediately after a deep tissue radiofrequency treatment)

  • Prevent skin laxity and skin ageing: even more so immediately after a deep tissue radiofrequency treatment)

  • Enhance skin tone and texture and overall rejuvenate skin: even more so immediately after a deep tissue radiofrequency treatment

  • Minimise pore size: even more so immediately after a deep tissue radiofrequency treatment

  • Boost circulation: even more so immediately after a deep tissue radiofrequency or deep tissue ultrasound treatment

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Promote skin healing

  • Reduce pigmentation

  • Improve acne (mild to severe)

  • Help improve psoriasis

  • Relieve musculoskeletal pain

  • Recover from sports injuries

  • Reduce skin redness

  • Relieve heaviness and irritation caused by lipoedema: even more so immediately after a deep tissue ultrasound treatment

  • Skin recover after liposuction and other cosmetic surgery: by minimising inflammation, post-inflammatory pigmentation and prevent fibrosis and scarring

  • Boost overall, whole body well-being

  • Relax mind and body, improve mood and help with seasonal affective disorder

Although not a cure-all, one-session miracle treatment (those don’t exist anyway), LED light therapy is a gentle procedure with multiple benefits after a series of treatments and 99.9%+ safety profile.

Enjoy some luxury “me time” as your skin absorbs the energising light. Each treatment lasts 20-30 minutes and with no downtime, you can simply get up and glow.

How does blue / infrared / red light therapy work?

Blue, red and infrared light interacts with molecules in the body called chromophores, triggering a cascade of biochemical reactions which result in better cell function. The most important chromophores in the body are hemoglobin, cytochrome c oxidase (Cox), myoglobin, flavins, flavoproteins and porphyrins.

Blue light acts on porfyrins inside the C. Acnes (Cutibacterium acnes) bacteria, responsible for acne, which results in killing deactivating them.

Red and infrared light act on the mitochondrial enzyme cytochrome c oxidase, boosting mitochondrial function (mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cells) by facilitating the use of oxygen and consequent ATP synthesis (ATP is the energy currency of the cells).

Red and infrared light also helps dissociate nitric oxide from cytochrome c oxidase, thereby further boosting oxygen consumption (nitric oxide produced in the mitochondria can inhibit respiration by binding to Cox and competitively displacing oxygen, especially in stressed or hypoxic cells).

Furthermore, red and infrared light boosts localised production or release of NO and stimulates vasodilation through the effect NO on cyclic guanine monophosphate (cGMP).

And finally, controlled ROS and NOS generation results in the release of NF-κB, resulting in the transcription of protective and stimulatory gene products.

Practically the end outcomes are:

  • Increased collagen and elastin production, i.e. improved skin firmness and elasticity and tendon/fascia/ligament/muscle health

  • Reduced inflammation and cell senescence, i.e. reduced pain and swelling, and overall healthier skin and other tissues and faster recovery from cosmetic and other surgery including post-surgical fibrosis and scar tissue prevention (LLLT can also stimulate healing of deeper structures such as nerves, tendons, cartilage, bones, and even internal organs

  • Wound contraction and healing

  • Improved blood circulation

  • Reduced pigmentation

Deep relaxation with high-power, tri-wave LED light therapy

One of the most impressively quick applications of three wavelength, high-power LED light therapy is stress relief / deep relaxation.

The treatment, comprising an exclusive protocol of infrared, red and blue wavelengths at specific light power densities, typically lasts 30 minutes, to allow for a prolonged stated state of deep relaxation.

The treatment feels like lying down on the beach, with the red/blue light softly warming your face and with the device cooling feeling like a gentle, relaxing breeze.

It really is reminiscent to lying on the beach, but with all the benefits of red, infrared and blue light and none of the harmful UV rays.

You can relax in silence or put on your headphones and listen to your favourite music and within the first 10 minutes you will enter a state of relaxation.

By the end of the session you will feel calm and relaxed - with the added benefit of facial skin rejuvenation and mild blush on your face, courtesy of the circulation boost that the treatment stimulates.

High-power LED light therapy for skin tightening and cellulite reduction, when combined with deep, strong radiofrequency/ultrasound

In addition to working as a stand-alone therapy for skin healing, firming and rejuvenation, our high-power LED light therapy is also an integral part of our LipoTherapeia® Plus treatments for cellulite reduction and non-surgical skin tightening / lifting, together with our two other cutting edge technologies and unique protocols, based on more than two decades of experience.

Although LED light therapy is not nearly as effective as our deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation for non-surgical skin tightening / lifting and cellulite reduction, it is known to boost the results of RF and ultrasound treatments by stimulating cell metabolism and repair at the mitochondrial level.

This aspect of red and infrared LED light therapy makes it the ideal super-booster treatment as an add-on for RF, ultrasound, pressotherapy and massage.

On the other hand, tri-wave LED light therapy is excellent on its own to help prevent skin laxity and skin ageing and boost skin glow and vitality.

What is best for skin tightening, lifting and cellulite reduction: infrared / red light therapy or radiofrequency / cavitation?

For cellulite and skin tightening, our deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency and deep-acting, high-power ultrasound cavitation are far, far more effective - no comparison.

However, due to its mitochondrial stimulation effect, red and infrared light therapy enhances RF and cavitation treatment when received at the end of the treatment. For us perfectionists, who want to give our clients the absolute best, red and infrared light does offer that extra boost.

For face, neck and décolletage anti-aging, rejuvenation and mild skin firming, infrared and red light therapy can work on its own (as an intensive course, as a maintenance treatment or as an one-off treatment) and it is both more pleasant and more economical.

However, when red and infrared light treatment is received at the end of our deep-acting, high-power radiofrequency treatments, maximum results are achieved, as skin receives stimulation from both radiofrequency and red/infrared light.

This is why we now always combine our radiofrequency and ultrasound cavitation treatments with high-power LED light therapy.

The best light therapy equipment for maximum results and unparalleled safety

At LipoTherapeia we use the most advanced and most powerful LED light therapy aesthetic equipment available today, with FDA (USA) clearance for acne, wrinkle and musculoskeletal pain and CE (European) clearance for acne, wound healing, pain relief and psoriasis (the only LED light therapy device to be certified for psoriasis).

Its combination of 3 clinically proven wavelengths (trialed in multiple peer-reviewed studies) and maximum power of 200mW/cm2 (~112W in total, the highest in its class) means that in just 20 minutes you can receive treatment equivalent to literally hours of what is provided by a home LED face mask or LED panel - and even by most other professional LED devices.

Our equipment provides an overall:

  • 9x more power than the best LED mask on the market, meaning that our treatments are equivalent to 180-minute long sessions with the best face mask to receive the same treatment

  • 6x more power than the Dermalux Flex MD (the most powerful home-use LED device available on the market), meaning that our treatments are equivalent to 120-minute long sessions with a Dermalux Flex MD to receive the same treatment

  • 180x (!) more power than the hyped-up home-use laser device you see blasted on Instagram every day, meaning that our treatments are equivalent to 3600-minute long sessions with that laser device to receive the same treatment

  • 60x (!) more powerful than the “professional” version of that laser device you see blasted on Instagram every day, meaning that our treatments are equivalent to 1200-minute long sessions with that laser device to receive the same treatment

Furthermore, a high-power treatment can more efficiently treat deeper tissues such as the hypodermis, subcutaneous adipose tissue, fascia and muscles. Low power treatments cannot do that.

Plus you get all the other benefits of a medically certified machine:

  • Stable illumination at the intended intensity throughout your 20-minute treatment duration with no loss of power due to LED overheating (as with some lower-end devices)

  • Uniform illumination without hotspots which can lead to hyperpigmentation (as with LED masks)

  • Wavelength accuracy for maximum results and unparalleled safety (as opposed to some lower-end devices and LED masks)

  • Targeted illumination around the face, or other area to be treated, for maximum light absorption at an optimum angle (as opposed to LED panels)
