Green light therapy benefits
The secret to clearer, brighter, more balanced skin.
Who doesn’t want clearer, brighter and more balanced skin. A secret, the Currentbody Series 3 LED Mask, can help you achieve just that. Green light therapy can improve skin tone and reduce pigmentation, but what exactly is it?
What is green light therapy?
Arguably less understood and perhaps less appreciated than its red counterpart, green light therapy uses wavelengths ranging from 495nm to 570nm, with a range of therapeutic benefits that don’t stop at skincare.What does green light therapy do?
The specific wavelengths used by green light therapy penetrate the skin, energising cells, boosting their function and triggering natural repair mechanisms, with advantages for both skincare and self-care.
Benefits of green light therapy for your skin
Evens skin tone
The primary advantage of this therapy lies in its ability to even skin tone and reduce visible dark spots by interacting with the skin to reduce pigmentation. This helps to minimise the appearance of an uneven skin tone for a clearer, brighter, more even complexion.Supports collagen production
By energising skin cells, improving circulation and calming irritation, green light therapy creates a healthy environment within the skin, which supports the production and maintenance of collagen, for a more youthful-looking, refreshed appearance, and overall skin rejuvenation. This, like the other skincare benefits mentioned, is only amplified by red light therapy, which works within the skin to boost cell function and health.While green light works superficially on the top layer of skin, NIR penetrates the deeper layers, boosting collagen production and reducing irritation by triggering cell repair, with rejuvenating effects.
What is the difference between green and red light therapy?
Green and red light therapy differ in the length of wavelengths used. While green wavelengths are shorter, red wavelengths are longer and, therefore, able to travel further into the skin. Because of this, green is more effective at targeting surface-level skin conditions—think dark spots and discolouration—while red light therapy targets skin repair and advanced anti-ageing.
How long does green LED therapy take to work?
Results can be expected with 8-12 weeks of continuous use, although some individuals may see improvements to their skin tone or texture after just a few sessions. The speed at which improvements are achieved depends on factors including skin type, concern and consistency and frequency of sessions.Are there any side effects to green LED light therapy?
Green LED light therapy is considered safe for regular use, although those who are pregnant or experience photosensitivity issues may wish to consult a healthcare professional before starting sessions for added reassurance and peace of mind.Get green light therapy benefits from the Series 3 Mask
