| Light Therapy Benefits |

There are many ways to treat acne and acne scars, ranging from applying topical creams that can lighten dark spots or remove pimples altogether, to manual methods that involve wounding the skin and penetrating into much deeper areas of infection. One such method is phototherapy, which is a relatively new technique whose overall effects are still being studied.
Light is a relatively new way to treat acne. Light treatments, of which there are now several, were designed as an alternative to traditional acne therapy--antibiotics, topical creams, and drugs like Accutane--which may have serious drawbacks.
This type of therapy mimics natural outdoor light to help restore the body's natural rhythms and help people overcome many different mood disorders. Light therapy uses a special light that emits a light that is brighter than that of a normal household lamp. Most light boxes give off a light that is brighter and more intense than typical outdoor light, so a short session of exposure to the light is usually very effective.

First, light therapy for skin care is not about UV, which is common sense since UV rays need to be avoided when your skin needs to be healed for any condition. That's why your dermatologist recommend to not expose your skin to the sun when you are following an acne treatment, for example. Light therapy is not a substitute to tanning booth, so don't expect any suntan, again light therapy products don't use UV lamp.
The intensity of the Light Therapy Lamp can be varied from 2500 lux to 10000 lux. lux is the measurement of lux illumination of lamps. It really depends on the person's needs and preference. Furthermore, the treatment duration will change variably with the lux value of the lamps they are using. The lower the lux, the dimmer the lamp will be. Usually for a 10000 lux (which is usually the case), the user may only need to bathe in the light for 30 minutes while doing what they want (surfing the net, reading a book).
First you have to remember that light therapy lamps used as treatment in hospitals and at home respond in the same way as any normal medicine. This is why you should verify that the lamps have an agreed EU license. The origin of light therapy lamps are reserved for medical use (by a GP or at the hospital). Today light therapy lamps may be used at home, at the office in response to normal usage.
Light therapy for acne can come in many forms, and more research is being done to ensure its safety and improve on current light therapy methods. In the future, we will certainly see more innovations that can help make light therapy more convenient, and even cheaper for those who need it the most.
With this therapy, oils and dead skin cells are suctioned from the sebaceous glands. Then the P. acne bacteria is destroyed with a form of light therapy. This two-pronged approach targets both the sebaceous glands and the bacteria to clear up and prevent acne. The only side effects are some dryness of the skin. |
