Looking to find a way to restore your youthful appearance and put the brakes on the visible signs of ageing? We often hear about prevention being better than cure, especially when it comes to staying out of the sun. But when it comes to existing sun damage or wrinkles on the face, visible scars, or post-pregnancy stretch marks, is it possible to reduce their severity and restore your skin back to the way it used to be? With the LED Light Therapy treatment, the answer is yes. Keep reading to find out more about how Low Level Laser Therapy can help you and arrange a consultation with Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic today.
In addition to helping to minimise the visible signs of ageing, there are numerous other benefits to using red light therapy. The treatment:
LED Light Therapy is a treatment procedure that applies “cold” laser to the exterior of the body as a means of reducing scarring, wrinkles and many visible signs of ageing. The laser penetrates the skin at a pre-determined wavelength to generate cell regrowth and enhance cell function. This cell regeneration can aid in the repair of scarred or damaged tissue, reduce the appearance of fine wrinkles, and minimise the severity of blemishes that can affect one’s appearance. It can be compared to the process of photosynthesis in plants. It’s a treatment that can be used on any area of skin, for example on stretch marks and scars, but it’s widely used on the face for its anti-ageing benefits.
A trained and qualified Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic practitioner will set the laser to emanate a mild beam of light at a preset wavelength on the affected area of skin. The laser promotes the regeneration of skin cells and the regrowth of collagen (a naturally occurring protein found in the body which gives the skin its elasticity and strength) as well as elastin, which helps to reduce inflammation, soreness and redness. With further cold laser therapy treatments, increased lymphatic drainage and the passing of time, the affected area of skin can become stronger and the visible signs of ageing may become less visible.
LLLT treatment is often used in conjunction with numerous other treatments to help take years off your appearance. Applying Low Level Laser Therapy to the skin along with other treatments like microdermabrasion, photo rejuvenation, dermal fillers and chemical peels, among many others, can help to accelerate and enhance the skin’s healing process. This can be beneficial for everything from sun spots and scars through to stretch marks.
The versatility of cold laser treatment makes it useful for a large number of skin conditions. Victorian Laser & Skin Clinic offers Low Level Laser Therapy for:

Luckily, as LED Light Therapy is a safe treatment, there are no long term side effects of undergoing the treatment. You may experience a mild tingling sensation due to the use of laser light on the skin, but as the intensity is relatively mild, it won’t actually burn the skin. However, while there are no real side effects with cold laser therapy.
