What should not be combined with LED treatments?

The combination of LED treatments with colorants or pigments is not recommended due to potential interactions that can affect the effectiveness of the light therapy. Colorants and pigments may absorb specific wavelengths of light emitted by the LED devices, which can diminish the therapeutic effects intended from the treatment. This could lead to less favorable outcomes, as the energy provided by the LEDs may not penetrate the skin as intended or could lead to unintended reactions depending on the formulation.

In contrast, essential oils, moisturizers, and hydrogel masks generally do not interfere with the LED treatment's efficacy. Essential oils are often used to enhance relaxation and skin benefits without blocking light, while moisturizers and hydrogel masks can help hydrate and soothe the skin, complementing the LED therapy's effects. They can enhance the overall experience and efficacy of the treatment without posing risks associated with pigment interference.
