Rosacea and sensitive skin can be treated with blue light. Well documented for its anti-inflammatory effects and skin healing abilities, Zemits Estiled blue LED has the most superficial wavelength at around 470nm. It destroys cutibacterium (formerly known as propionibacterium, present in P.acnes) and inhibits the growth of the stratum corneum.
Nevertheless, you can also treat delicate, sensitive skin differently. This is when the yellow LED becomes your treatment hero. We are not talking about mixed light (red and green to produce yellow) but pure, high-density, monochromatic yellow LED, like Estiled, with longer wavelengths, penetrating the skin to 590nm at a depth of the skin where the nerve supply and lymphocytes and we're able to treat sensitive skin most effectively.
As well as its calming and soothing action, yellow LED reduces congestion and stimulates the production of lymphocytes to remove the toxins that the blood can't handle. It has a profound effect on the skin when treating sensitivity and rosacea.
For ultimate results, use red LED in conjunction with yellow. This combination's benefit is re-energising the cells and improving skin function, including regeneration and renewal.

Cells need oxygen for their ability to function and be healthy. The microcirculation provides oxygen. During the onset of rosacea, cells become "suffocated", and this is because there is a lack of calcium in the cells, which leads to a lack of oxygen and oxygenated blood.
The microcirculation becomes restricted, resulting in a lack of oxygen reaching the cells. So, you then see superficial redness and flushing, and the development of rosacea begins.
