What serum should I use with LED light therapy?

The best serum for you may depend on your individual skin type and concerns. We recommend using a serum that contains hyaluronic acid and/or vitamin C, as these ingredients can help to promote collagen production and brighten/even the skin tone. Our Renew Complex serum combines hyaluronic acid, blue tansy, and aloe vera to deeply hydrate the skin and prep it for LED and micro-current treatments.

What is LED light therapy facial?

A LED light therapy facial is a facial treatment that uses LED (light emitting diode) lights to improve the appearance of the skin. LED light therapy facials can be used to treat a variety of skin concerns, such as fine lines and wrinkles, acne, and sun damage. LED light therapy is a non-invasive, safe, and effective way to improve the appearance of your skin. Products like Solawave help you easily integrate this technology into your daily lifestyle.

How often can you use LED light therapy?

For best results, it is recommended to use LED light therapy 2-5 times per week. It's important to give your skin a chance to rest and repair itself in between LED light therapy treatments. If your skin reacts well to the treatment, we recommend using LED therapy tools like Solawave no more than once per day.

Is LED light therapy safe for your face?

LED light therapy is safe for your face. In fact, it’s one of the most popular treatments for aging skin. Using LED tight therapy can help improve skin tone, reduce the appearance of wrinkles, and give your skin a more youthful glow. Using an at-home device like Solawave allows you to integrate safe LED therapy treatments into your daily routine.

Is LED light therapy safe while pregnant?

There is not enough research on LED light therapy and pregnancy to provide a definitive answer. However, as LED light does not produce UV radiation, it is likely safe to use during pregnancy. You should consult your doctor before beginning LED light therapy.

How much does LED light therapy cost?

The cost of LED light therapy devices varies depending on the treatment. A single LED light therapy session can range from $50-$250. However, many spas and medspas offer package deals that can save you money in the long run. How much you pay for LED light therapy will also depend on the location of the treatment. Skincare devices like Solawave allow you to access this technology at-home for a fraction of the cost.

Is LED light therapy safe for sensitive skin?

Yes, LED light therapy is safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. If you have sensitive skin, it is recommended to start with a lower intensity setting and increase as your skin becomes more accustomed to the treatment. You should limit use to 2-3 times per week until you feel comfortable with your skin's reaction to light therapy.

How long does LED light therapy take to work?

The results of LED light therapy can be seen after just one treatment. However, most report seeing a noticeable improvement in the appearance of their skin after 4-6 weeks of treatment. Committing to a regular LED light therapy routine will help to maintain and improve results. SolaWave provides easy solutions for integrating light therapy into your daily routine.
