From consultation to exposure
The correct setup is not improvised.
At the Leeds appointment, the face is prepared and your eyes are covered with the protection required for the device. The array remains at its specified position while the selected light programme runs for a controlled period.
This is offered for cosmetic skin-care goals. It should not be read as a promise to produce collagen, remove lines, cure inflammation or undo sun exposure; any visible change may be subtle, temporary or absent.
Check whether LED may suit you
Bring an accurate medicine list
Photosensitivity is a consultation question, not a guess.
Medicines, supplements, eye conditions, light-triggered seizures and photosensitive disorders can affect suitability. Never pause prescribed medicine simply to qualify for a facial.
One visit or several
Let response and value guide the decision to return.
A standalone appointment may be enough for someone who wants a relaxed, non-invasive facial experience. If a course is suggested, ask what change will be reviewed and at what point rather than assuming more exposure means a better result.
Most people plan no recovery time, but that does not rule out a reaction. Contact the Leeds team if redness, dryness, sensitivity or headache does not settle as advised, and seek prompt medical help for visual changes, blistering, severe pain or other worrying symptoms.

Before your Leeds facial
Straight answers about LED light.
A safe booking matches the actual device and exposure to your history rather than relying on a generic colour chart.
Ask the Leeds teamWill the LED feel hot?
You may notice light warmth, but the exact sensation varies by device and person. Tell the practitioner straight away about pain, marked heat, dizziness or eye discomfort.
Why are goggles or eye shields used?
Eye protection forms part of the device setup. Keep it in place as directed and tell the practitioner about relevant eye conditions or recent eye procedures before treatment.
Can this replace prescribed dermatology care?
No. Continue care advised by your clinician unless they change it. Cosmetic LED should not delay assessment of a persistent rash, lesion, severe acne or another medical concern.
Do different colours guarantee different benefits?
No. Wavelength, dose and device evidence matter, and a coloured programme name alone does not prove an outcome. Your consultation should keep claims modest and device-specific.
What might rule out a session?
A light-sensitive condition, photosensitising medicine, certain eye or seizure conditions, active skin disease or another device-specific contraindication may mean postponing or choosing different care.
Is aftercare complicated?
Usually it is simple: follow the practitioner's product guidance, avoid introducing irritating actives and use appropriate sun protection. Report a reaction that worsens instead of settling.
