Benefits
Did you know it is the newest trend? LED is the acronym for light-emitting diode. A device used to reduce acne, increase skin circulation, and improve the collagen content of the skin. So you see why this diode is so popular. It does everything.
But did you know this isn’t something new? Oh no, no, no. Lol! NASA some 40 plus years ago found out and studied that LED improved human tissue in the areas of healing and tissue growth. So then these studies laid the foundation for LED to be used for skin rejuvenation using light energy with specific colors. These specific colors would obtain different responses and triggers for skin stimulation.
Crazy right!! So to dumb it down the LED light works by releasing light onto the skin to stimulate specific responses, at precise depths of the skin. When the colored light reaches specific depths of the skin, it triggers a reponse such as stimulation of circulation or even reducing bacteria.
