LED light therapy
What is LED light therapy?
LED (light-emitting diode) light therapy is a gentle, non-invasive skin treatment that uses low-level light in specific colors, or wavelengths, to support the skin. It does not use UV light, and it does not heat or damage the skin. At SpaRx Medical Aesthetics of Thonotosassa, we use a medical-grade Celluma device, which is FDA-cleared for acne, aging skin and pain, so each session is comfortable, relaxing and tailored to your skin. LED is often added to one of our professional facials or used right after a treatment like microneedling to help your skin recover and glow, and it works best as part of a series.
Blue, red and near-infrared light
Targets the bacteria behind breakouts to help calm active acne and keep acne-prone skin clearer.
Supports collagen and helps soften the look of fine lines for smoother, firmer-looking skin.
Reaches deeper to soothe and calm, easing the look of redness and supporting recovery after other treatments.

Acne & breakouts
Blue light helps target the bacteria behind breakouts to calm active acne and keep skin clearer.
Fine lines & early aging
Red light supports collagen to help soften the look of fine lines and keep skin looking firmer.

In-office LED light therapy vs an at-home LED mask
At-home LED masks can be a nice add-on to a routine, but they are lower powered and not tailored to your skin. Here is how in-office LED at SpaRx Medical Aesthetics compares.
| In-office LED (Celluma) | At-home LED mask | |
|---|---|---|
| Light strength | Stronger, medical-grade device | Lower-powered consumer device |
| Wavelengths | Proven blue, red and near-infrared | Varies by product, often limited |
| Guidance | A provider sets the mode and plan for your skin | You guess at settings and timing |
| Consistency | Regular, monitored sessions | Depends on how you use it |
| Pairs with | Facials, peels and other treatments | Home skincare only |
| Best for | Real, guided results | Light maintenance between visits |
In-office LED and an at-home mask can work together: come in for guided sessions, then maintain at home. Your provider will help you build the right plan at your consultation.
Your LED session, step by step
01
Cleanse & settle in
Your provider cleanses your skin and reviews your goals, then chooses the right light mode for your skin. You get comfortable, with eye protection as needed.
02
Relax under the light
You simply relax as the LED light does the work, usually for about 20 minutes. There is no heat, no needles and no discomfort, just gentle light.
03
Soothe & glow
A soothing serum, moisturizer and SPF finish the visit. There is no downtime, so you can head straight back to your day, even with makeup on.

Is there any downtime after LED light therapy?
Aftercare is simple: keep your skin hydrated and wear SPF every day, which matters year round in the Florida sun. Because LED is so gentle, it can be repeated regularly and layered with a deep cleaning hydro facial or your other treatments. Many people fit a session into a lunch break or add it to a facial. Your provider will give you personalized guidance and the right session schedule at your visit.
How much does LED light therapy cost in Thonotosassa?
LED light therapy pricing is quoted at your consultation, and it is often available as an add-on to one of our facial treatments, which is a popular and affordable way to boost your results. Your provider will give you clear pricing, including package pricing for a series, before you book anything.
Because LED works best in a series, ask about package and membership pricing when you visit, which is usually the most cost-effective way to reach your goals.
Want to add LED to a facial or build a series? Ask about packages and memberships. Your provider can map out the right plan at your consultation.
How many LED light therapy sessions will I need?
Because LED gently supports the skin over time, results build with each session rather than all at once. A single session can leave skin looking calm and refreshed, while a series helps with concerns like acne and early signs of aging. Pair your sessions with good home care and daily SPF, and your provider will adjust your plan as your skin responds. Individual results vary.
Is LED light therapy right for you?
LED light therapy is one of the gentlest treatments we offer, and it is comfortable for nearly every skin type and tone. Because there is no UV, no heat and no downtime, most people are good candidates, and it is a great add-on to a facial or a way to support your skin between stronger treatments like an IPL photofacial.
A few situations call for extra care. Let your provider know if you are pregnant, take medication that makes you more sensitive to light, such as certain acne medications or antibiotics, or have a light-sensitive condition like lupus or a history of seizures triggered by light. Your provider reviews your history first and will let you know if LED is a good fit.
A note on expectations: LED light therapy is a gentle, supportive treatment that works best over a series and alongside good skincare, so results build gradually and vary from person to person. It is not a medical or surgical procedure, and it is not the same as an at-home LED mask. Your provider will set honest expectations and suggest the right combination for your goals.

LED light therapy FAQs
What is LED light therapy? +
LED light therapy is a gentle, non-invasive skin treatment that uses low-level light in specific colors, or wavelengths, to support the skin. It does not use UV light. Blue light helps calm breakout-causing bacteria, red light supports collagen, and near-infrared light soothes and calms. At SpaRx Medical Aesthetics we use a medical-grade Celluma device, which is FDA-cleared for acne, aging skin and pain.
How does LED light therapy work? +
Different colors of light reach different depths of skin and prompt different responses. The treatment is gentle, does not use UV and does not heat or damage the skin. Your skin absorbs the light, which supports processes like calming acne-causing bacteria and supporting collagen, so skin looks clearer and healthier over a series.
What do the different light colors do? +
Blue light (around 465 nm) targets the bacteria behind breakouts. Red light (around 640 nm) supports collagen and helps soften the look of fine lines. Near-infrared light (around 880 nm) reaches deeper to soothe, calm and support recovery. Your provider chooses the right mode, or a combination, for your skin and goals.
Is LED light therapy safe, and does it use UV? +
LED light therapy is one of the gentlest treatments available, and it does not use UV light, so it does not carry the sun-damage risk of tanning or UV exposure. It is comfortable for nearly every skin type and tone. Let your provider know about any medications or conditions that make you more sensitive to light, and they will confirm it is a good fit.
Does LED light therapy hurt or have downtime? +
No. Most people find LED light therapy relaxing, with a gentle warmth at most, no pain and no downtime. You can return to your day right after, and even wear makeup.
How many LED sessions will I need? +
LED light therapy works best in a series, commonly one to two sessions a week for several weeks, then occasional maintenance. Skin often looks calmer and more refreshed early on, and results like clearer or firmer-looking skin build gradually. Your provider will recommend a plan for your goals.
Can LED light therapy be added to a facial? +
Yes. LED is a popular add-on to a facial and is often used right after another treatment to help the skin calm and recover. It layers well with facials, peels and other treatments. Your provider will recommend the best pairing for your goals at your consultation.
Is in-office LED the same as an at-home LED mask? +
No. Professional devices like the Celluma we use deliver stronger, medical-grade light at proven wavelengths, with a provider guiding the right mode and protocol for your skin, so results are more consistent than a consumer mask. An at-home mask can be a nice way to maintain between visits.
Who performs LED light therapy at SpaRx Medical Aesthetics? +
LED light therapy is performed by the SpaRx licensed esthetics team, Genesis Martinez, Nicole Mora and Sydnee Womack, with physician oversight from Dr. Kendrick Heywood.
