LED Light Therapy in Bundaberg
LED Light Therapy for Skin Balance
At Embrace Cosmetic Clinic in Bundaberg, LED light therapy offers a calm, non-invasive way to support overall skin function and recovery. Our treatments use controlled wavelengths of light that interact with the skin’s surface, helping to promote balance and calm visible redness, acne, surgical wounds, production of ATP and stimulates endorphins in the brain.
LED therapy is often used to complement other treatments or as part of a long-term skin care routine. It can be applied to a range of skin concerns, including congestion, mild irritation and uneven tone. Sessions are comfortable, require no downtime, and are suitable for most skin types.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens during an LED light therapy session?
During treatment, a light-emitting device is placed close to the skin. The light remains on for around 20 to 40 minutes while you relax. The light used is low-level and does not emit heat or UV rays.
Protective goggles are provided for comfort and safety. There’s no downtime following treatment, and you can return to your usual routine immediately.
While most people find the process relaxing, your clinician will always monitor your comfort and adjust settings as needed.
How should I prepare for an LED light therapy appointment?
Preparation is minimal. It’s best to arrive with clean, product-free skin so the light can interact directly with the surface. Avoid applying heavy creams, makeup or sunscreen immediately beforehand.
If you’re using active skincare ingredients such as retinol or exfoliating acids, your practitioner may advise pausing them a day or two before your appointment. This helps prevent unnecessary sensitivity during treatment and supports optimal comfort.
Can LED light therapy be used on areas other than the face?
Yes, LED light therapy can be applied to various areas of the body, not just the face. It’s often used on the neck, chest, back or shoulders to help maintain general skin balance or to complement other treatments in those regions.
Each area may require different light colours and several sessions, depending on the skin’s thickness and condition.
Your clinician will discuss which areas are appropriate for treatment and tailor the settings to help ensure a safe, effective experience.
Are there any conditions that prevent LED light therapy use?
Certain conditions or medications can make LED light therapy unsuitable. Individuals with epilepsy, active skin infections or known light sensitivities should avoid this treatment.
Likewise, those taking photosensitising medications – such as some antibiotics or acne medications – should seek medical clearance first.
A full consultation helps identify any contraindications to ensure treatment safety. If LED therapy isn’t appropriate, your clinician can suggest alternative options that better suit your needs and skin health.
How LED Light Therapy Supports Skin Health?
Rather than using heat or abrasion, LED light therapy works by exposing the skin to low-level light energy. Each wavelength interacts differently with the skin’s natural processes, making it a versatile option for ongoing maintenance and care.
Blue light is often used to kill off the acne bacteria for acne vulgaris on the skin’s surface, while red and near-infrared light are chosen to support circulation and the skin’s natural repair cycle. Results are gradual and vary between individuals, depending on skin type and existing concerns. Treatments are typically relaxing, making them a beneficial addition to a broader skin health plan.
A Soothing Addition to Your Routine
LED light therapy can be performed on its own or combined with other clinical treatments seeking to enhance comfort and support recovery. Because it doesn’t involve chemicals or heat, it’s suitable for most people, including those with sensitive skin.
Many find the treatment experience relaxing. The gentle warmth of the light creates a sense of calm while the skin is exposed to carefully measured wavelengths. A session usually lasts between 20 and 40 minutes. Regular treatments may contribute to smoother, more balanced-looking skin over time, though individual responses can differ based on overall health and skin condition.
