High frequency light therapy uses electricity to enhance skin tone and texture, being gentle on even sensitive skin and customizable for specific issues like acne or inflammation.
An electrode filled with either argon or neon gas is connected to an electrical current which ignites these inert gases to produce oxygen molecules and natural warmth that help transform skin tone. Popular among spas for treating aging skin, but also effective against puffiness, dark circles, and acne breakouts.
Acne
Acne is a skin condition affecting millions of teenagers and adults worldwide. Acne occurs when hair follicles and sebaceous glands become clogged with oil, leading to inflammation and breakouts that result in scarring or permanent skin damage if left untreated or prevented with high frequency light therapy treatments. Luckily, acne can often be effectively managed or even avoided using such technologies as high frequency light therapy treatments.
At the outset of treatment, an electrode is applied to the face in order to generate a small electrical current that emits an enriched oxygen molecules that kill bacteria while electrical energy heats deeper layers of skin. The combination of antibacterial action and thermal tissue warming supports blood circulation for improved healing and promotes skin regeneration for an overall healthier glow.
High-frequency light therapy (HFLT) can be an effective solution to treat wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and acne. Additionally, this therapy encourages collagen production – tightening and smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles as it stimulates tightening the skin with tightening threads of collagen production and tightening threads of tension that form in fine lines and wrinkles. In treating acne specifically, it reduces both bacteria that leads to blemishes as well as redness related to inflammation resulting in improved condition.
This treatment is completely non-invasive, using no harsh chemicals or irritating products. Furthermore, it’s pain-free; though you may experience a slight tingling sensation as the electrode moves across your skin surface. With just one treatment session under your belt, your skin is sure to look glowing and younger!
Treatment with Dermaroller(r) is safe for almost all skin types, with particular success among those suffering mild to moderate acne. It can help treat the full range of acne symptoms such as blackheads, whiteheads and smaller pustules as well as reduce excess oil production and diminish enlarged pores; however it may not be as beneficial in cases with deep cystic acne or nodules.
High-frequency light therapy should only be used as prescribed; overusing it may make dark marks from past blemishes worse as its light emitting UV emits can overstimulate pigment cells and result in darker marks appearing from past blemishes. Therefore, only use this device according to instructions.
Wrinkles
Wrinkles are an inevitable consequence of age, but high frequency light therapy can diminish their appearance for smoother skin. Red LED light penetrates deep into layers of skin, encouraging collagen production and diminishing fine lines and wrinkles over time. Plus, you can switch your treatment plan with blue or yellow settings for inflammation or acne problems!
LED light therapy not only reduces fine lines and wrinkles, but can also enhance skin tone and texture by diminishing age spots and hyperpigmentation. Furthermore, it targets bacteria responsible for acne breakouts to ultimately decrease breakouts over time.
As part of an anti-aging facial treatment, high frequency light therapy uses thermal energy to stimulate blood flow and lymphatic drainage to the skin, rejuvenating it while simultaneously decreasing puffiness and dark circles beneath your eyes. Furthermore, the therapy boosts collagen production while shrinking pore sizes to achieve a more youthful complexion.
LED light therapy can be obtained in either a professional spa setting or via at-home devices. While receiving regular treatments from an esthetician will lead to quicker and more visible results, at-home devices tend to operate at lower intensities than professional-grade equipment and will take more time for visible improvements to occur.
Both options are generally safe to use for most patients, although it’s wise to consult a skincare expert prior to purchasing an at-home device. You will want to ensure it has FDA clearance, operates within its therapeutic wavelength range, and fits your intended treatment area; for instance, larger panels for body treatment or face masks for comprehensive facial treatments might be more suitable options.
High frequency light therapy can be an ideal way to add anti-aging treatments like microdermabrasion or chemical peels into your skincare regimen, providing enhanced and long-term results.

Puffiness
High frequency machines use the pulsating action of violet or orange electrodes to soothe dark circles and puffiness around the eyes, as well as stimulating lymphatic drainage and dispersing any excess fluid, to give an instantly refreshed appearance.
This treatment has long been used in spas and salons as it’s gentle, noninvasive, and requires no downtime afterwards. Due to its mildness, it’s often used as an initial soothing step before more intensive procedures like microdermabrasion or chemical peels take place.
Puffiness is caused by fluid accumulation, typically as the result of an underlying health condition such as thyroid or kidney issues. High frequency helps disperse excess fluid to diminish under eye circles and facial puffiness by stimulating lymphatic drainage and improving blood circulation; while also killing acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes). The treatment also kills off acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes), thus helping prevent future breakouts.
High frequency current can help reduce fine lines and wrinkles through its pulsating action, by increasing oxygen supply to your skin’s cells thereby improving texture, tone and glow of surface while stimulating collagen stimulation.
High frequency therapy may be the perfect solution for anyone hoping to reduce pore size. Its deep penetrating germicidal action kills acne-causing bacteria, clearing away clogged pores, preventing further breakouts and diminishing existing acne spots.

Firmness
High frequency treatment improves circulation, oxygenation and cell renewal to allow deeper penetration of skin care products and help reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, collagen production increases, tightening skin for a youthful look by firming and tightening it further. High frequency can also shrink enlarged pores by stimulating cellular turnover while diminishing dark spots and puffiness by shrinking enlarged pores; and fade dark eye circles while strengthening hair follicles for healthier hair growth.
Professional light therapy treatments offer even greater advantages over at-home devices, with dermatologists often offering LED and RF treatments in their offices with more intense intensities and wavelengths to treat specific conditions more effectively. Furthermore, such holistic approaches take an integrated approach towards meeting all your skin care needs and concerns.
High frequency is not only used to treat common skin issues; it can also be effective at preventing acne. By killing Propionibacterium acnes bacteria and regulating sebum production, high frequency can effectively prevent breakouts while improving healing and reducing inflammation. Furthermore, its frequency-modulated frequencies also reduce pore size which often contributes to blackheads and whiteheads appearing on your skin.
High-frequency treatments are non-invasive and gentle, usually without any discomfort whatsoever. Most clients report a slight tingling sensation which is both relaxing and soothing; any discomfort should be reported immediately to your provider, as it could indicate inflammation in an inflamed area that doesn’t yet respond well to treatment. An average high-frequency facial session lasts less than 20 minutes making it a convenient way to add the benefit of high frequency to your everyday schedule! Results from high frequency facials can be immediate while their long-term benefits provide lasting effects resulting in a more youthful complexion with glowing complexion. A series of treatments could bring lifelong results!
