Dermalux LED Phototherapy is a non-invasive treatment utilising specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular processes. This stimulation enhances the skin’s natural rejuvenation and healing abilities, addressing various dermatological conditions. The therapy employs red 633nm, blue 415nm , and near-infrared 830nm light, which are clinically proven to be effective in promoting skin health and treating conditions like acne, psoriasis, and aging skin.

Dermalux LED Phototherapy has a high safety profile with minimal risk of irritation or side effects, as evidenced by over 3,000 published clinical studies. However, individuals on photosensitive medications or with specific health conditions should consult their healthcare provider prior to treatment due to potential increased sensitivity to light exposure.

Dermalux LED has a high safety profile. It is clinically proven to be safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin conditions.

Dermalux treatment is a relaxing and pain-free experience. While the treatment itself does not generate heat, some users may experience a sensation of natural warmth due to increased blood circulation in the treated areas, contributing to an overall feeling of well-being

The optimal number of Dermalux treatments varies based on factors such as which device is being used from the Dermalux portfolio, the specific condition being treated, its severity, and individual patient characteristics. Generally, an initial course of 8 to 12 sessions is recommended. More frequent treatments typically yield faster and more noticeable results.

The results of Dermalux LED Phototherapy can last for several months, depending on the condition treated. For prolonged benefits, regular maintenance treatments are recommended as part of a continuous skin health regimen.

Yes, certain types of sheet masks can be used during the Dermalux LED treatment. Specifically, transparent and hydrogel masks that do not block light can be beneficial. These masks allow the therapeutic light to penetrate the skin while providing additional hydration and nutrients. It is important to avoid opaque masks that could obstruct the light and reduce the effectiveness of the treatment. Always consult with the manufacturer’s instructions to choose the appropriate mask/ingredients for use with LED phototherapy.

Follow the instructions in the treatment manual for the best results when using topical products with Dermalux LED treatment. Here are specific guidelines:

Beneficial (✓):

Hyaluronic Acid
Peptides
Stem Cells
Growth Factors
Beta Glucan
Niacinamide
These ingredients are safe to apply on the skin prior to and during the Dermalux treatment. Use water-based serums and low viscosity gels that absorb quickly into the skin.

With Caution (✗):

Vitamin A
Vitamin C
Vitamin E
Lactic Acid
Mandelic Acid
These ingredients may be used in low concentrations in conjunction with the Dermalux treatment, but the skin response should be monitored. Avoid using high concentrations of active ingredients immediately after treatment, especially for sensitive or problematic skin.

Avoid (✗):

Glycolic Acid
Salicylic Acid
Benzoyl Peroxide
Kojic Acid
Retinol
Hydroquinone
Titanium Dioxide
Zinc Oxide
Do not apply topical products that contain these ingredients during the Dermalux treatment as they create a barrier that inhibits light penetration. Such products can be used post-treatment. Skin peels may be used directly before the Dermalux treatment as long as they are neutralized in advance.

No, Dermalux does not stimulate Vitamin D production. Vitamin D synthesis requires UVB light, which is not used in Dermalux treatments. Dermalux employs specific wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared spectrum, which do not contribute to Vitamin D production.

No, Dermalux will not induce tanning. It uses wavelengths outside the UV spectrum, specifically targeted to therapeutic wavelengths, ensuring no UV exposure and therefore no tanning effect.

Human vision is limited to wavelengths between approximately 400nm and 700nm. Near-infrared (NIR) light, used in Dermalux treatments, has a wavelength at 830nm, which are invisible to the human eye despite their powerful therapeutic effects.

Yes, near-infrared (NIR) light has significant therapeutic benefits. It promotes wound healing, accelerates tissue repair, and provides calming and soothing effects for inflammatory and problematic skin conditions. Additionally, NIR light is effective for pain relief.

Dermalux has not been tested on individuals under the age of 16. Treatments for individuals under 16 years old should be conducted at the discretion of the clinic and may require parental consent.

It is not recommended to use Dermalux LED Phototherapy on clients currently undergoing cancer treatment. Treatment can be considered once the client has been cleared by their oncologist or doctor. Dermalux is safe for use on clients who have completed cancer treatment.

While Dermalux LED Phototherapy is generally safe, its effects have not been extensively studied in pregnant women. Therefore, use during pregnancy is at the discretion of the healthcare provider. The treatment is considered safe for clients who are breastfeeding.

Dermalux LED Phototherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses clinically proven wavelengths of light to rejuvenate and repair the skin. Unlike other light-based treatments such as laser or IPL, Dermalux LED Phototherapy is suitable for all skin types, during all seasons and does not cause thermal damage or discomfort. It can effectively treat a variety of skin concerns with no downtime.

Dermalux LED Phototherapy can treat a wide range of skin conditions including medical indications such as acne, psoriasis and pain management. It is also used from many cosmetic indications inculding signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles. It also aids in wound healing, modules inflammation, and promotes overall skin health.

Yes, Dermalux LED Phototherapy can be safely combined with other skincare treatments. It enhances the results by stimulating cell regeneration, modulating inflammation and promoting faster healing. Always consult with a skincare professional to determine the best combination for your specific needs.

To prepare for a Dermalux LED Phototherapy session, ensure your skin is clean and free of any makeup, lotions, or oils. It’s best to avoid using any highly active skincare ingredients immediately before the treatment. Inform your therapist about any medications or skin conditions you have.

After your Dermalux LED Phototherapy session, you can resume your normal skincare routine. It’s recommended to apply a hydrating moisturizer and use sunscreen to protect your skin from UV exposure.

Yes, Dermalux LED Phototherapy is safe and effective for all skin tones.

Thousands of clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of LED Phototherapy in treating various skin conditions. These studies show that specific wavelengths of light can stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing processes. Dermalux LED systems are clinically proven and backed by scientific research.

Red light (630nm): Boosts collagen production, improves skin elasticity, and reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
Blue light (415nm): Targets acne-causing bacteria, reducing breakouts and preventing future acne.
Near-infrared light (830nm): Penetrates deeper into the skin to reduce inflammation, promote wound healing, and relieve pain.

A typical Dermalux LED Phototherapy session lasts about 20 to 30 minutes. The duration may vary depending on the Demalux device being used and the indication being treated.

Contraindications include epilepsy, severe light sensitivities, and certain medications that cause photosensitivity. Always consult with a healthcare provider to ensure LED Phototherapy is safe for you.

If your client is on medication not listed as contraindicated, it is important to consult with their healthcare provider. Some medications may cause increased sensitivity to light, and it is crucial to confirm safety before proceeding.

It is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider before starting the treatment to ensure there are no specific contraindications based on your individual health profile.

Some users of LED Phototherapy may experience non-permanent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) after intense treatments where the LEDs are in contact with the skin. To mitigate this risk, Dermalux insists on maintaining a minimum distance of 2.5cm between the skin and the LEDs when using the Flex MD device. Our medical advisor, Dr. Ian Strawford, explains that if PIH occurs, it typically resolves on its own, but topical treatments such as retinoids, azelaic acid, and hydroquinone can help. Using sunscreens with SPF 50+ is also recommended to protect the skin. For further advice, please consult a healthcare professional.
