Why you should consider adding the Dermalux Flex MD into your skin health regime.

Updated: Feb 4

Shedding some LIGHT onto why phototherapy should be your next obsession and staple addition to your skin routine. "Medically certified, clinically proven and backed by science".


Medically CE certified for acne, psoriasis, wound healing and musculoskeletal pain relief.- The only system in the world to hold medical approval for psoriasis!


So what is LED phototherapy?


Light Emitting Diode phototherapy- A non invasive treatment used to energise the cells triggering a cascade of bio stimulation. It is indicated for skin rejuvenation, pigmentation, as well as inflammatory complaints of the skin and musculoskeletal system. The mechanism is likened to the process and power of photosynthesis through a process termed 'photobiomodulation'. Light itself is a powerful energy, our cells are intrinsically influenced by this energy. The skin is exposed to Wavelengths or nanometers of light, specifically blue, red and near infrared- the only three credible wavelengths clinically proven to deliver therapeutic results; The correct selection of these wavelengths is imperative in healing, rejuvenating and creating relief of specific concerns.

Take a look below at real results for the indication of wound healing, psoriasis, problem skin & acne.





First Impressions


Considering this to be such a powerful option to consider as part of the treatment of inflammatory skin conditions, musculoskeletal aches and pains and overall rejuvenation, for the client this is an relaxing, non stressful procedure to enjoy.

In my experience of utilising the Dermalux device within clinic, my clients fall to sleep and feel instant benefit and relief. Its an excellent way to combine a little R&R/ downtime into the treatment of your skin concerns. I have the lights of, the uplighters on a lovely hue of orange and like any clinic or Medispa worth its salt, we have those soothing sounds in the background. The device is simple to use making application around the face and body incredible stress free for both myself and my patients. This versatile ability ensures that no matter where your complaint is on your body- we can strategically target that area.

How Have I used the Dermalux to benefit my patients so far?


Currently my focus is helping people to solve their skin complaints and musculoskeletal pains, I am very fortunate that I am able to have access to this device within a shared space Medispa, if this was for my sole use I would 100% be incorporating this into most treatments. So far I have been able to utilise this device specifically for lumbar pain relief, eczema, topical steroid withdrawal and for general rejuvenation.

Treatment lasts for 30 minutes as a stand alone therapy and gives my patients ample time to simply switch off.

This is my least sociable treatment- what do I mean by this? well for all you introverts out there, this is perfect! I get you comfortable, I get the Dermalux flex positioned according to your target area and more often than not I exit stage left to leave you to unwind and let the LED glow really work its magic- (The blue light also aids in improving mood!)


For a more thorough overview of this fantastic science and how it directly affects and targets our bodies on a cellular level, take a look below.





Pros and Cons


The majority of my patients are really at their wits end; constantly battling between topical creams, prescription medications and endless flare-ups. Weather that be down to eczema, psoriasis, acne or a long-standing muscular pain. It won't provide a one session fix all but it will provide significant, noticeable & long-term improvement when committing to a treatment plan.

This is not a suitable option for those living with photosensitive eczema, albinism, or lupus erythematosus. It is however suitable for all skin types with no downtime.



The Final Score


After 13 years in Emergency Medicine and a little over 3 years in aesthetic medicine, its really fulfilling to be able to offer a device/ treatment that feels synergistic to both roles. I love that this is not a one size fits all approach, which coincides beautifully with my overall approach to aesthetic treatments, this is entirely individual driven.

The entire process and application of this powerful addition really does get a 5 star review from me and I truly hope you take a brave step in reaching out to allow me to provide you with a treatment that you will find to be the missing jig saw piece in managing your long term skin conditions and muscular tweaks.


I'd love to know if this is something you've considered, heard about or even better if utilising the Dermalux LED devices has improved your quality of life.
