The invention relates to a light treatment device for skin. The light treatment device for skin comprises a base, a mainframe, a mounting frame, a protective cover and an illumination mechanism. The mainframe is mounted at the upper end of the base, the mounting frame is mounted at the upper end of the mainframe and is of a structure telescopic up and down and left and right, the protective coveris mounted on the side wall of the mounting frame, the illumination mechanism is disposed in the protective cover and comprises a rotating motor, a rotating cylinder, a working frame, a lamp bracket,a connecting plate, an adjusting branch chain, an auxiliary branch chain, a telescopic cylinder, a telescopic connecting rod and an auxiliary frame. The adjusting branch chain comprises an adjusting plate, a connecting slider, an adjusting block, an adjusting rod, a moving plate, an adjusting gear, a transition gear and a driving motor. According to the light treatment device for skin, the problems that at present, in the light treatment process, the position adjustability of an LED lamp is poor, the irradiation uniformity is poor, and after the LED lamp works for a long time, the temperaturerises easily, so that normal operation is affected can be solved.
