What is LED Light Therapy?

LED light therapy is a popular noninvasive skin treatment for acne, sun damage, wounds, and other skin problem. The treatment uses varying wavelengths of light to trigger the skin’s natural healing processes to repair the skin. Several treatments are necessary to see results. LED stands for light-emitting diode. These lights have been in use since the 1960s, but people have only recently begun to use them as a skin treatment. NASA originally developed LED lights for plant growth experiments in space.
