WHAT IS IT?
Discover Red Light Therapy, a non-invasive treatment utilising wavelengths of Red and Near-infrared Light (R+|NIR+) from our PlatinumLED Therapy Lights to rejuvenate your skin and body.
Red light therapy
Red light can penetrate the skin to help with healing and reducing inflammation.
Near-infrared light therapy
Near-infrared light can penetrate deeper into tissues and may help with muscle recovery and pain relief. It can also stimulate collagen and elastin production, which can make skin look firmer and more youthful.

DURING TREATMENT
Please note, we ask clients not to wear any make-up prior to treatment, to allow the Aesthetician to work directly with your skin.
Skin care products and skin creams must be removed to allow the beneficial light to penetrate into the skin. Eye protection for the client will be used.
The appointment usually lasts for around 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the treatment area and skin disorder to be treated.
After your appointment, results may be seen within a few days, and can last for several months following a course of Red Light Therapy treatments.
Maintenance treatments are advised to ensure lasting results.
FAQ's
How Red-Light Therapy Works
Red Light Therapy works by delivering specific wavelengths of light to the skin, where it's absorbed by mitochondria.
This absorption stimulates the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), enhancing cellular function and repair.
The therapy's effectiveness is backed by extensive research, ensuring a safe and beneficial experience.
Is Red Light Therapy Safe for Eyes?
Red Light Therapy are considered safe for all skin types. Additionally, it doesn’t contain any ultraviolet rays and, therefore, poses no risks to our eyes. However, certain precautions must be adhered to. Appropriate eye protection will be given to you prior to treatment, as a precaution.
How long does each treatment session last?
Each session typically lasts between 7 to 20 minutes, depending on the treatment area and individual skin concerns.
After care?
This treatment is simple and effective, with no recovery time required after your treatment. Although there’s no direct aftercare, we recommend you avoid the sauna, steam rooms, and swimming for 12 hours after your treatment. Also, ensure a good skin care regime for long-lasting results after our treatment. Our team will provide unique instructions to help you maintain results and prevent complications. At Illustrious Clinic, we provide a safe approach to Red light therapy.
Is Red Light Therapy painful?
No, the therapy is pain-free. Clients usually experience a warm, relaxing sensation during the treatment; however, it might not be ideal for pregnant people or those with open skin wounds.
How many sessions are recommended for optimal results?
The time it takes for red light therapy to work for you depends on the condition you aim to treat, your unique body composition, and the frequency of sessions. It’s important to understand that everyone is different. Your skin and body differ from everyone else’s, so results can vary. The good news is that red light therapy starts helping your body from the first session, but continued treatments help achieve more lasting results.
You may see or feel minor effects immediately, but the best results are typically conducted over 3-6 months if you consistently visit Illustrious Clinic for treatments. Based on your areas of concern and your red-light therapy goals, we’ll devise a plan custom-tailored to you, including initial treatment sessions and ongoing maintenance. As with any non-invasive treatment, achieving excellent, lasting results is hardly ever instantaneous. Just as conditions take time to develop, effective treatment takes time too. Therefore, expectations need to be realistic. Consistency is key, and therefore it necessitates multiple consistent sessions to obtain long-lasting results. For general maintenance, we recommend 2-3 treatments weekly. However, your treatment plan might differ, so we recommend following the recommendation of your skin specialist.
