Benefits of LED skin light:
Minimizes fine lines and wrinkles | Reduces crow's feet | Heals blemishes | Improves skin tone | Regeneration/stimulation of collagen | Restores skin’s natural cellular collagen activity | Activates fibroblast cells which create collagen and elastin | Helps sun-damaged skin | Creates more skin moisture which will help fill out skin | Increases circulation to the skin | Reduces melanin production, which causes brown age spots | Promotes nutritional elements existing within the skin | Helps irregular pigmentation | Lessens skin coarseness | Lessens pore size | Stimulates and activates metabolic function in skin cells | Smoothes texture | Reduces skin degradation | Reduces overall redness and flushing | Provides a healthier skin tone.

Aging Skin
Premature Aging has a negative impact on careers, social life and your self image. Understanding the structure and function of the skin helped LED Technologies, LLC in the development of products that reduce the appearance of visible signs of facial aging.
As we get older components of our skin - collagen and elastin - degenerate setting the stage for the appearance of wrinkles, creases, folds, and furrows. The breakdown of these components, accelerated by sun exposure and gravity, result in sagging skin. Skin is easily damaged, by external factors such as sunlight, pollution, harsh soaps and chemicals and by internal causes such as cigarette smoke and diet. Source: The National Institute on Aging.
According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), with aging all skin cells begin to produce excess amounts of free radicals - unstable oxygen molecules - that, under ideal circumstances, are removed by naturally occurring antioxidants within the skin's cells. In aging skin cells, antioxidants are in short supply. The free radicals generated are left unchecked and cause damage to cell membranes, proteins, and DNA. These free radicals eventually break down a protein substance in connective tissue (COLLAGEN) and release chemicals that cause inflammation in the skin. It is a combination of these cellular and molecular events that leads to skin aging and the formation of wrinkles.
Considerable research has been done to understand the aging process and studies now show that products containing or producing bioactive effects (those that interact with living tissues or systems) can benefit sun-damaged, discolored, and aging skin. The effects of the red and infrared light from are giving people new choices for restoring their overall appearance.
