A lot of "dimmable" LEDs are actually shifting the flicker pattern to dim the light (shorter on phases). This is for LEDs where the user dims per remote control. OP was talking about the older "legacy" dimming, where you have a wall-mounted knob that reduces the current. Works well with incandescent bulbs. But only few LEDs support this. If they do, their internal power converter likely won't flicker, because of their more thought-out converter?
However, there are also LEDs that support legacy dimming, but again translate less current into different flicker patterns...
