Phototherapy, often referred to as Light Therapy or LED Therapy, is a treatment that has been around in various guises for quite some time now. It utilises specific wavelengths of light to address a variety of skin conditions. This non-invasive therapy has become a partner in dermatological care thanks to its proven efficacy in promoting skin health without the need for surgical interventions. By harnessing the power of light, phototherapy stimulates the skin’s natural healing processes, offering relief and improvement for conditions such as acne, psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo.

The Dermalux treatment utilises two primary LED lights: Red and Blue. Red LED light targets fine lines and wrinkles, promoting smoother skin, even tones, and increased hydration by stimulating blood circulation. The other interesting light, Blue LED light, is recognised for its anti-bacterial properties and addresses acne and skin congestion, often serving as an alternative to medications. This blue light additionally combats Seasonal Affective Disorder and safeguards against bacterial reactions during other procedures.
For combined skin concerns like inflammatory acne and scarring, a mixture of both red and blue lights proves most effective. The treatment employs infrared LED light, delving deep to treat age spots, environmental damage, muscular strains, and stretch marks. With the capability to penetrate up to 40 millimetres, infra-red light’s benefits manifest progressively post-treatment, often requiring multiple sessions for optimal results.
The phototherapy treatment process at Derma Revive Skin Clinic is designed to ensure that each patient receives the most effective, comfortable, and safe treatment possible. Our process is divided into three key stages: before your session, during your session, and after your session. This structured approach allows us to tailor each treatment to the individual’s needs, ensuring optimal outcomes.
Before your phototherapy session begins, you’ll have a detailed consultation with one of our skilled experts. During this consultation, we’ll assess your skin condition, discuss your medical history, and determine your most appropriate treatment plan. This may involve a combination of different light wavelengths to target specific skin issues effectively. We’ll also provide you with all the necessary information on how to prepare for your session, ensuring that you’re fully informed and comfortable with the process. If you have questions, please take the time to ask us whatever you want.
During your phototherapy session, you’ll be situated comfortably in a treatment room with the latest technology. Our Dermalux Flex or Tri-wave MD systems will then be adjusted to emit the specific wavelengths of light needed for your treatment. These sessions are painless and can vary in duration depending on the area being treated and the specific condition. Our trained professionals will be with you throughout the session, ensuring your comfort and monitoring the treatment’s progress.
After your phototherapy session, you may notice immediate effects, but the full benefits of the treatment typically unfold over the following days and weeks. Our team will provide aftercare instructions tailored to your specific treatment, helping maximise the results and maintain your skin’s health. We may also schedule follow-up sessions as part of a comprehensive treatment plan designed to achieve and sustain the best possible outcomes for your skin.
Proper preparation is a key aspect in ensuring the effectiveness of your phototherapy session at Derma Revive Skin Clinic. By following a few simple guidelines, you can help maximise the benefits of your treatment and ensure a comfortable experience. Here’s what you need to know about preparing for your session:
Comfort is paramount during your phototherapy session. We recommend wearing loose, comfortable clothing that easily allows access to the area being treated. A top that can be easily removed or adjusted for treatments targeting the face or upper body is ideal. If your legs or other lower body parts are the focus of your session, wearing shorts or a skirt may be more convenient. Our clinic also provides appropriate coverings and eye protection, as needed, to ensure your safety and comfort throughout the treatment.
To ensure the best possible results from your phototherapy treatment, there are several things you should avoid prior to your session:
The duration of a phototherapy session at Derma Revive Skin Clinic can vary depending on the specific condition being treated and the area of the body involved. Typically, sessions last between 15 to 30 minutes. For targeted treatments, such as those for the face, sessions may be shorter, while larger body areas might require a longer exposure time to ensure the light penetrates effectively and provides the desired therapeutic benefits. Our team will provide you with a detailed estimate of your session length during your initial consultation, ensuring that you have a clear understanding of the treatment process.
The permanency of phototherapy results can depend on the nature of the skin condition being treated. Conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and vitiligo often require ongoing treatment sessions to manage symptoms effectively. While phototherapy can significantly reduce the severity and frequency of outbreaks for these conditions, periodic maintenance sessions may be necessary to sustain the results over the long term.
