Thermal Mechanical Ablation (TMA)
Support Skin Healing, Soothe Redness, and Boost Your Glow
If your skin is feeling tired, inflamed, or not quite itself, whether due to breakouts, sensitivity, or stress, sometimes it needs more than just rest and hydration. Gentle light therapy can offer a non-invasive way to help your skin recover, repair, and glow again.
At Dr Joyce Lim Skin & Laser Clinic, we offer LED-based light therapy to support skin health at a cellular level. This relaxing treatment uses specific light wavelengths to help soothe, brighten, and rebalance the skin, naturally and comfortably.
What It Helps With
LED light therapy is commonly recommended for:
- Redness and inflammation
- Active acne or acne-prone skin
- Dull or uneven skin tone
- Mild sensitivity or post-treatment recovery
- Maintenance of healthy, balanced skin
It’s safe, gentle, and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive or reactive skin.
How It Works
This treatment uses low-level light energy in different colours, each absorbed by the skin at different depths. Depending on your skin’s needs, specific wavelengths may be used to help reduce redness, calm irritation, target breakouts, or stimulate collagen.
Unlike heat- or chemical-based treatments, LED therapy works without causing damage or discomfort to the skin’s surface.
What to Expect
The treatment is simple, soothing, and pain-free. You’ll lie back as a panel of LED lights is positioned over your face, and relax while the light gently penetrates the skin. Sessions typically last 20–30 minutes, and many patients describe it as calming and meditative, like a power nap for your skin.
There is no downtime, redness, or peeling afterwards. You can return to work, exercise, or makeup immediately.
When Will I See Results?
Some women notice their skin looks calmer and more radiant after just one session, especially after travel, stress, or late nights. For longer-term results, such as clearer skin or more even tone, a series of treatments may be recommended.
LED therapy also works well alongside other procedures such as facials, peels, or lasers, supporting recovery and enhancing results.
Aftercare and Maintenance
No special aftercare is required. Keeping the skin hydrated and protected with sunscreen is always recommended. Dr Joyce Lim may suggest how to incorporate LED therapy into your regular skin care plan.
A Gentle Boost for Your Skin
If you’re looking for a quiet, comfortable way to support your skin, whether you’re managing breakouts, calming redness, or just in need of a refresh, LED light therapy offers a simple, soothing solution.
