Refining Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy bathes your skin in rejuvenating light, stimulating collagen production for a youthful glow and potentially accelerating healing and reducing inflammation.
Red light therapy offers a range of potential benefits for your skin, health, and well-being including Skin Rejuvenation, Wound Healing, Acne Improvement, and Hair Growth. It may stimulate collagen production, leading to plumper, smoother skin with reduced wrinkles and fine lines. Research suggests it can be effective in treating acne by killing acne-causing bacteria. There's also evidence that red light therapy can improve hair growth in people experiencing hair loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy is a treatment that may help skin, muscle tissue, and other parts of your body heal. It uses low levels of red light to target your skin and cells. It is thought to work by increasing the production of mitochondria, your cells’ energy sources. This may improve cell function and repair.
Red light therapy is also sometimes called low-level laser therapy, low-power laser therapy, low-power laser, or photobiomodulation.
How Does Red Light Therapy Work?
In red light therapy, you expose your skin to a lamp, device, or laser with a red light. It uses an LED (light-emitting diode) that emits the correct spectrum of light. Red LED light travels deeper into the skin than blue LED light, which is sometimes used to treat skin surface conditions such as acne. When the light enters your skin, your mitochondria soak it up and make more energy, which helps cells repair themselves.
Red light therapy uses very low levels of heat and doesn’t hurt or burn the skin. Unlike the light used in tanning booths, it doesn’t expose your skin to damaging UV rays.
What Are the Benefits of Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy for skin
Research shows red light therapy may smooth your skin and help with wrinkles. Researchers think it does this by stimulating collagen production, which helps improve skin elasticity. Research shows it also helps improve signs of sun damage.
Red light therapy for acne
Research has found that red light therapy can be effective for acne treatment. This may have to do with its ability to help reduce inflammation. In addition to helping with active acne lesions, red light lasers may also help treat old acne scars.
Red light therapy for weight loss
Some providers use red light therapy as a weight loss treatment. This is often called body contouring, or body sculpting. Red light therapy may help reduce the circumference of your body in the area that was treated, but the effect will likely be temporary and not due to any real weight loss.
How often do I need to visit?
The number of red light therapy treatments you need depends on what you are getting treatment for. But you will likely need ongoing sessions for weeks or even months.

I’ve previously had 12 sessions at a different clinic and been quite disappointed with the results. I’m only 3 sessions in now at Skin Quarts and have seen such a difference. I always feel so welcome and comfortable - highly highly recommended xx
She's a true artist at keeping you coming back for more, all while pretending to be a professional. My advice? Save your money unless you feel like risking your skin and ending up looking like a crispy treat.
But hey, maybe after three or four sessions (if she feels like it), she might actually get it right. Just be sure to keep a record of all her excuses and mishaps for when you inevitably need to file a claim. Because who doesn't love a little chaos with their beauty treatments?
So, if you're in the mood for a wild ride of incompetence and skin-sizzling surprises, Skin Quarz with Grace is the place to be! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show – and good luck making it through those sessions unscathed!
Ive never felt so confident in my skin, it’s clearly noticeable as the compliments have been rolling in. A year ago I would never have felt confident enough to go to work/events/into the city bare faced - Skin Quartz has totally changed all of that.
Professional. Empathetic. Total industry expert.
11/10 cant recommend it more.
My consultation and first session was with Lara who was very professional, friendly, clear, informative, made me feel very comfortable and explained everything in detail. My other appointments have been with either Maiya, Amy or Grace. All of whom were absolutely lovely and made me feel so comfortable which is a real skill when it comes to beauty treatments, especially when you have your knickers off!
You go in the laser room, strip off (if you’re getting full body), you get a towel to wrap round you and you can sit on the bed ready, they have wipes if you’ve got deodorant on, and single use razors in case you’ve missed a few hairs - although definitely try to shave as much as you can prior! If you’re too hairy, or you’ve got remnants of fake tan on you will have to re-arrange the appointment.
They’ll draw on you with a white pencil in sections so they have a guide to follow so don’t be alarmed when they start to draw on your legs!
The laser itself on your skin is comfortable, you can’t feel much because there’s a a flow of concentrated cold air at the same time so even if you do feel anything it’s only for that single half a second and all you feel is the cold air blowing. I found that in general it didn’t hurt at all, some parts it pinches a little, i found the most pinchy areas were the underneath of my Hollywood (naturally), middle of my armpits and the back of my thighs but even that wasn’t painful, just a pinch every now and then. If you’ve waxed, this is nothing in comparison! They will re-assure you that if you need a break, or if it’s too much you can stop at any time. My skin was red and a bit bumpy after each session which is completely normal, and they provide aloe Vera gel to smother yourself with before you go, the redness goes down after a little while.
After each session I had, there was a clear reduction of hair growth, from around my 3rd session my hair hasn’t grown back stubbly at all and is very fine, soft and wispy. No ingrowns in sight, my skin has been so smooth!!
I didn’t go into it expecting to be completely hair free, and I wouldn’t recommend to think you’ll be completely hair free by the end of the 6th session, but I would say I have about a 90% reduction of hair, my armpits 95% reduction - I’m honestly amazed and so pleased with the results, I can go a long time without needing to shave, and any hair growth after that is so soft and fine it’s barely noticeable.
To keep on top of it I have booked 6 more sessions which I’d recommend. When you first go they’ll aim to do a session every six weeks but my 7th session isn’t for 10 weeks after my 6th so the more you do the further spread you can go depending on your results. After the 12th sessions I expect to go back every now and then for top up appointments.
Overall, if you’re thinking of getting laser hair removal and you have the money, absolutely do it and absolutely go to the skin quartz, they have a good quality laser, it’s quick (my full body would take on average 45 mins). The results are variable for everyone so there are no guarantees but if you’re ready to give the journey a go, just do it. My only regret is I didn’t do it sooner!
Also microneedling treatments have truly transformed my skin, leaving it radiant and youthful. The expertise and care provided by the team at Skin Quartz are truly unmatched.
I can't recommend Skin Quartz enough for their exceptional laser hair removal and microneedling services!
Thank you Amy!! for creating a welcoming and relaxing environment during each visit. Your friendly demeanor and clear explanations have made the process much easier for me. I truly appreciate your dedication to ensuring the best possible experience and results.
I would highly recommend their services to anyone seeking hair laser removal. You are a true expert in your field, and I am grateful to have found such a skilled and caring therapist.
Warm regards, Safa
My skin is so smooth and I don't have to shave; just every few months when I'm about to go in for my next session. 3 sessions to go and I will be hair-free!
