For the same wattage to the lamps, do LEDs make more heat?

Well, energy out must equal energy in, but for the same wattage, do LEDs dissipate more heat through the body than incandescents?

I feel this is a possibility, because incandescent can reject substantial portion of input power as radiant power in infrared spectrum while the LED must get rid of this heat at the body.

Thoughts?
