LED Therapy & High-Elevation Skin Health 🌿

Flagstaff’s high elevation, dry climate, and increased UV exposure can weaken the skin barrier—leading to dehydration, inflammation, acne, and premature aging. LED Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted wavelengths of light to support the skin at a cellular level.

Red light stimulates collagen production and accelerates repair, while blue light targets acne-causing bacteria and helps calm congestion. LED therapy is safe for sensitive or compromised skin and is especially beneficial for those living at higher elevations where skin requires extra resilience and recovery support.

At Ethereal Esthetics by Ashley, treatments are thoughtfully customized for high-elevation living, restoring balance, hydration, and long-term skin health.

✨ Looking for more advanced healing? Schedule a free consultation and let’s chat about PDRN therapy or the new Colostrum Barrier Repair Peel—designed to strengthen and deeply nourish compromised skin.
