What LightStim treats.

  • For Acne

    Hello, clear skin.

    Treat mild to moderate acne. Calm existing breakouts. Restore your skin's clear, healthy appearance. Blue + red light kills P. acnes bacteria and reduces inflammation simultaneously.

  • For Wrinkles

    Smoother in 8 weeks.

    Reduce fine lines and wrinkles. Give your skin a more radiant and youthful appearance. Red + infrared stimulates collagen and elastin production at the cellular level.

  • For Recovery

    The athletes' secret.

    Accelerate natural healing. Reduce inflammation, soothe sore muscles, decrease bruising. Used by NBA and NFL athletes for in-season recovery.

 

Clinically proven · wrinkles

100% saw improvement. 92% kept improving.

In LightStim's FDA clinical trial, 100% of participants showed significant improvement in fine lines and wrinkles. Three months after the trial ended, 92% had even further reduction in their wrinkles — proof the results compound over time, not the other way around.

Clinically proven · acne

100% saw improvement in 2–4 weeks.

FDA clinical study: 100% of participants treating acne breakouts saw significant improvement in the first 2 to 4 weeks. 85% of the world population is affected by acne at some point — LightStim is non-invasive, no irritation, no downtime, and doesn't strip your skin barrier.

How pros recover.

  • Chris Paul

    Phoenix Suns, NBA

    "In my 17th NBA season, I am all about recovery and supporting my health and wellness off the court. The LightStim LED Bed helps me day in and day out and allows me to recover faster in between games and workouts."

  • Devin Booker

    Phoenix Suns, NBA

    "During an NBA Finals series and winning a Gold Medal for Team USA, the LightStim LED Bed became a staple in my recovery regime. I use the LED Bed daily and it really helps me to recover quicker in between games — even in the playoffs."

  • Saquon Barkley

    Philadelphia Eagles, NFL

    "The LightStim LED Bed helped me get through my first major injury, a high ankle sprain. I used the LED Bed a couple times a day for a few weeks and not only got my edge back but had my best game of the season shortly after."

Before your appointment

  • Arrive with clean skin.No lotions, oils, self-tanners, or body products on the areas being treated. Forget? We have gentle wipes on hand.
  • Skip chunky jewelry.Necklaces, belts, bracelets, watches — anything with hard edges can scratch the LED bed.
  • Hydrate.Well-hydrated skin responds better to LED. Drink water before and after your session.

During your session

  • Private & comfortable.Your own private room. Most clients undress fully; you’re welcome to your comfort level. A fresh towel is provided for modesty.
  • 20 minutes per side.You’ll start on your back on the full-body LED bed with a face panel positioned above. After 20 minutes, you’ll flip to treat the stomach or another targeted area.
  • Gentle and warm.No pain, no heat spikes, no downtime. Most clients feel deeply relaxed — some take a short nap.

After your session

  • No downtime.Reapply products or makeup immediately — LED therapy requires zero recovery time.
  • Touch-up essentials on hand.Tinted sunscreen, deodorant, face mists, and touch-up basics so you can leave ready for your next stop.
  • Drink water.Supports lymphatic flow and recovery.

A few extra tips

  • Best results: 2–4 times per week.That’s the cadence members typically use for visible results.
  • Tell us first.If you’re pregnant, taking photosensitive medications, or have a history of seizures, let us know before we begin.

Questions you'll probably have

FAQ

How often should I come in?

Members typically come 2–4 times per week for fastest visible results. For deeper acne or recovery protocols, your esthetician may recommend more frequent sessions during the first 2–4 weeks. If a regular in-studio cadence isn't realistic, the Elipsa Weekly Rental ($150) lets you take the device home for daily at-home treatments.

Is LightStim safe?

Yes. LightStim is FDA-cleared for wrinkles, acne, and pain. It's UV-free, non-invasive, and produces no heat damage. Used by plastic surgeons, dermatologists, and licensed estheticians since 2001.

Anything I should tell you before my session?

Yes — please tell us before we begin if you're pregnant, taking photosensitive medications (some acne meds, antibiotics, or retinoids), or have a history of seizures. We'll guide you on whether LightStim is the right fit and adjust your treatment accordingly. LED therapy is generally considered safe during pregnancy but we always recommend checking with your OB-GYN first.

Can I add LightStim to my lash or brow appointment?

Yes — the 16-minute Anti-Aging Face Panel ($40) works as an add-on to any lash, brow, or PMU appointment at our La Jolla studio. Mention it when you book or ask at check-in.

What's the Elipsa Weekly Rental?

The Elipsa is LightStim's at-home anti-aging device. For $150/week we send you home with one to use daily for seven days. Best ROI for getting visible results without committing to multiple in-studio sessions.

Is it really used by NBA athletes?

Yes. Chris Paul, Devin Booker, Saquon Barkley, and dozens of other professional athletes use LightStim's LED Bed for recovery. The same MultiWave® technology powering their LED Bed is in our Elipsa and ProPanel devices.
