Dermalux LED therapy
Lie back. The lamp does the work.
Dermalux LED therapy is rated the gold standard against other LED devices. It is medically CE certified and FDA cleared for a wide range of indications, including acne, ageing and inflammatory conditions, and it can be used alongside other treatments to enhance the result and speed healing. I use it to calm the skin after a NeoGen treatment, help with spots, and give you support between the bigger treatments. One session with me is £50. Six are £250. If you'd rather do it at home, you can hire the lamp for £150 a week, six weeks minimum.

What the wavelengths do
Red light is for anti-ageing and collagen. It reaches the dermis, stimulates the fibroblast cells, and boosts collagen and elastin so the skin can firm and fine lines can soften. Think of it as an energy boost for tired cells.
Blue light is for acne and oil control. It works on the surface layers to kill acne-causing bacteria and calm the oil-producing glands, so breakouts can clear.
Near-infrared is for inflammation and healing. It helps reduce redness, soothe conditions such as rosacea or eczema, and speed tissue and wound healing. It also supports the delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the skin cells.
What we use it for
These are the jobs I book it for.
- Acne and oily skin. Blue light at 415nm destroys acne-causing bacteria and calms breakouts.
- Rejuvenation. Red light at 633nm stimulates collagen and elastin to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
- Inflammation and redness. Near-infrared at 830nm reaches deeper tissue to calm rosacea, eczema, dermatitis and psoriasis.
- Wound healing and repair, including recovery after procedures such as microneedling or chemical peels.
- Pigment. Near-infrared and other targeted wavelengths help even skin tone and sun damage.
Here, or at home
With me it’s £50 a session, or £250 for six. If you’d rather keep the lamp at home, hire is £150 a week and the shortest I’ll let it go is six weeks, which is £900. I show you how to use it before it leaves. It comes back at the end unless we’ve agreed something else.

Went in for the spots on my chin. The LED was warm and I nearly nodded off. By the weekend they were calmer and less red. Not dramatic, just better behaved.

Did the Dermalux because I wanted something with no downtime. Skin looked a bit brighter the next day and the redness on my cheeks had settled. Relaxing half hour.

Wife booked it. Used the spare ten minutes under the red light. Face felt less tight afterwards and looked less dull. Surprisingly pleasant.

Quiet room, fell asleep. Skin had a nice glow for a few days and felt smoother. Would have liked it to last a bit longer, but good for what it is.
Questions worth asking first
Can I have the light after NeoGen?
Often yes, once the skin has settled. Not while it's still shedding. I'll write it into the plan rather than guess on the day.
Does it hurt?
No. It's warm light and a lie-down. Some people almost fall asleep. You shouldn't feel a burn. If you do, you tell me and we stop.
Is the hire lamp mine?
No. It's a hire. It comes back at the end of the weeks we've agreed. If you want longer, we talk about that separately.
