Medical basis

What is LED light therapy in aesthetic medicine?

LED light therapy is based on controlled exposure of the skin to different LED (Light Emitting Diode) lights, used for therapeutic purposes in aesthetic medicine.


Each type of light acts at a specific depth of the skin, depending on its wavelength, with a clear objective: to stimulate, repair, or soothe skin tissue.


Contrary to popular belief, it does not involve heat lamps, lasers, or UV rays. LED light therapy works through photobiomodulation: gentle, non-invasive cellular stimulation that does not cause thermal damage to the skin.

Facial light therapy: dangerous or safe?

Legitimate question. Honest answer.

Risks exist only in the following cases:

At Clinique Phénicia, each LED treatment is supervised, measured, and clinically justified.
