LED scars before/after: regenerate your skin with light

Table of contents

In dermatology and aesthetic medicine, scar treatment is at the heart of research and technological innovations. Atrophic and hypertrophic scars , but also deep scars due to blemishes or skin lesions, form a hollow and damage the upper and deeper layers of the skin. Once installed, it is difficult to get rid of these stubborn marks naturally. But photobiomodulation represents a major advance for skin diseases: discover the exceptional before and after results of LED therapy on scars .

How does LED light affect the skin healing process?

Improved wound healing with LED light

The light energy emitted by LED light promotes good healing of wounds and damaged skin tissues. By accelerating collagen production and the repair process , the cold light of LEDs allows the dermis to regenerate more quickly, making the skin more toned and elastic.

It is a technique widely used in aesthetic medicine and beauty tech , in addition to advanced anti-aging treatments, to give the skin a new youthfulness.

What color LED should be used to treat scars?

What is the most effective light for reducing scars? The color used will depend on the depth of the lesion.

  • Red light is the one that penetrates the epidermis best, for an immediate healing and regenerating effect.
  • Infrared light stimulates cell regeneration, improves wound healing and tissue healing.

The Nooance-Paris LED face mask combines red light and infrared for a double action: this synergy is particularly effective in accelerating the healing process, stimulating cell regeneration and significantly reducing wrinkles.

How effective is LED light therapy on different types of scars?

Post-operative healing

LEDs have been used for several years in hospitals to help damaged skin heal more quickly after surgery or injury, to calm inflammation and also pain.

Blemishes scars (atrophic scars)

LED therapy improves the treatment of blemishes scars , filling the hollow that has formed in the dermis, through the production of collagen and elastin. Photobiomodulation is a good complement to the blemishes scar serum to promote the penetration and effectiveness of the product.

Inflammatory scars

We also speak of inflammatory blemishes, keloid scars or hypertrophic scars. They have a red and swollen appearance, often in relief. The red LED light can reduce the appearance, thickness and "relief" aspect of deep scars.

Pigmented scars

Skin hyperpigmentation, in the form of brown spots or pigmented scars, can be treated with light therapy thanks to the lightening and anti-aging power of LED light.

The benefits of LED therapy for deep skin repair

Among all the benefits of photobiomodulation, skin damaged by scars responds particularly well to the anti-inflammatory action of LED lamps.

Reduction of inflammation and stimulation of cell regeneration

By promoting cell renewal , LED light helps the epidermis to heal more quickly: scars are much less visible.

Improved skin texture and pigmentation

The stimulation of collagen and elastin fibers helps to deeply hydrate the skin and restore a more radiant complexion. LED therapy thus delays the appearance of signs of aging : wrinkles, fine lines, brown spots.

LED treatment: proven effectiveness

When skin is damaged by years of blemishes or inflammation, the damage affects the deep tissues of the epidermis: this is why marks and scars tend to last for years.

Scientists have since looked into the effectiveness of light-emitting diodes as an aesthetic treatment. Several studies have found that light therapy:

  • Significantly reduces scars from blemishes , burns or surgery
  • Improves the appearance of old, mild to severe stretch marks by at least 60%
  • Promotes repair and cell renewal of skin damaged by scars, inflammation or irritation.

Home LED device users are also won over by the before and after results of the LED facial mask on the appearance of scars and the general quality of the skin, also thanks to the use of the Multi-function Mask on the body.

LED, Laser, Peeling… Which treatment should you choose to reduce scars?

  • Peeling is offered in beauty salons, but it can also be done at home, to smooth the skin's texture . This one-off treatment is particularly effective on pigmentation spots caused by blemishes scars , but it is not sufficient for old and deeper scars.
  • Lasers can treat all types of scars , but this treatment is more restrictive than LEDs because it is very expensive and can only be performed in a cosmetic office.
  • LED therapy is now accessible at home with professional LED devices such as the Nooance Anti-Aging LED Face Mask

LED scars before and after: what results can we expect with light therapy?

The course of a phototherapy session

  • Before LED therapy: the patient experiences aesthetic but also physical discomfort : the scar is hollowed or raised, thick or red in color, and the skin may be irritated.
  • During exposure to LEDs: the light acts on the production of collagen and promotes cell renewal , which helps to smooth the skin texture. The treatment is painless and safe.
  • After a few sessions per week: users generally observe a noticeable improvement in skin quality , a reduction in redness and itching, as well as a clearer and more even complexion.
