LED Therapy Mississauga treatment in progress

You may be a suitable candidate for LED Therapy in Mississauga if you have skin concerns that have not responded to over-the-counter products.

This treatment is appropriate for all skin tones and does not cause burning or damage to the skin.

However, there are some considerations:

  • Treatment sessions can add up in cost
  • Results are not guaranteed
  • It may not be suitable for individuals taking certain medications or those with active skin conditions

Consulting with a qualified skincare professional is recommended to determine if LED Therapy is appropriate for your needs.

Cost:

LED Therapy is typically not covered by insurance. Costs may vary depending on the provider, treatment plan, and whether it is combined with other services.

A single session may range from approximately $25 to $85, and multiple sessions are often recommended. Many providers suggest a series of treatments, which should be considered when planning overall cost.

At-home LED devices are also available and can range from $25 to $250 or more. While these may be more affordable over time, results may differ compared to in-clinic treatments.

Area Targeted:

Although LED Therapy can be used on different areas of the body, it is most commonly applied to the face.

Other areas that may be treated include:

  • Neck
  • Chest

These regions are often exposed to environmental factors and may show early signs of aging.

Red Light:

Red (infrared) light targets the epidermis, the outer layer of the skin. When applied, it is absorbed by the skin and helps stimulate collagen production.

  • Improve skin smoothness and fullness
  • Reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
  • Support circulation
  • Reduce inflammation

FAQ's

LED therapy can be injected superficially into the skin or applied topically. Therefore, when used by a qualified professional, they are usually very safe.
 
It may be painless, cause only mild discomfort, or cause tolerable pain, depending on the various LED therapies and delivery methods. If the procedure involves needle injections, a numbing cream must be applied beforehand. The pain will still be somewhat uncomfortable, but it is usually tolerable. When using the U225 device, our cutting-edge mesotherapy gun (also known as the mesogun), you will feel almost no pain if numbing cream is used, or very little discomfort if it is not. If you use JetPeel, our non-invasive, needleless injection method, it is totally painless. Finally, topical application won’t cause any discomfort; however, the process of microneedling or micro-channeling, which involves making tiny punctures in the skin, may cause some discomfort prior to the application of LED therapy.
Depending on the delivery method chosen, yes. The recovery period for the needles and microneedling may be one to three days. In this instance, you may have some pinkness, soreness, and/or slight bruising or swelling right after the procedure; these symptoms should go away in three days. There would be no downtime to one day for the U225 mesotherapy gun and micro-channeling. There is no downtime when JetPeel is utilized.
To achieve the best results, an LED therapy treatment program typically consists of three sessions spaced three to four weeks apart. Maintenance treatments are advised every three to six months following the completion of these three initial treatments.
Depending on the booster’s volume and delivery method, an LED therapy treatment session lasts between thirty and sixty minutes.
One to two weeks after treatment, results start to show, and they get better with each session.
Depending on the person’s lifestyle, age, and skin type, the results usually last six to twelve months after the three initial treatments.
It depends on the kinds of LED therapy, how it is delivered, and how many sessions are required. Get in touch with us about our LED Therapy package offers!

Treatment with LED therapy carries little risk. If needles or microneedling are used, the primary problems are bruising and swelling.

Instructions prior to treatment:

  • A week prior to your appointment, refrain from taking any blood-thinning drugs or supplements, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E, or fish oil, to lower the chance of bruising. If taking the medication is advised for medical reasons, do not stop.
  • Avoid consuming large amounts of alcohol 24 hours before your appointment.
  • Arrive without makeup.

Instructions for after treatment:

  • Avoid wearing makeup for about a day.
  • 24 hours after treatment, refrain from strenuous exercise.
  • For three days after treatment, refrain from using “active skincare” products like Retinol and AHA/BHAs.
  • For 14 days, stay away from laser or radiofrequency treatments as well as chemical peels.
  • Steer clear of UV rays and intense heat sources like saunas, steam rooms, sun beds, etc.
  • If necessary, take paracetamol to ease discomfort.
  • If necessary, use vitamin K or Arnica tablets or gel to lessen bruises.

I have done 2 Cutera IPL treatments at Sunshine Kitchener Waterloo Cosmetic Clinic and Medi Spa. My skin was much more even tone immediately after the treatments. Dr. Cathy Ding is so knowledgeable and professional. She will talk you through the process so you know exactly what to expect during the service and how to care for your skin afterwards. I am going to see Dr. Ding for my 3rd session next week and couldn't be more excited. I would 10/10 recommend this medical spa in a heartbeat.

Anytime I consider getting a procedure done I do extensive research online. Sunshine Cosmetic Clinic & Medi Spa looked like a high end medical spa with very good reviews. So I decided to do under eye filler with them. Dr. Murad was very good at the injection and patient as well. I'm extremely pleased with the results. Thanks!
