    How Does Red Light Therapy work?

    When undergoing red light therapy, the area of your skin or body that you want treated is exposed to low levels of red light. The light affects the mitochondria in your cells. Mitochondria are known as cell energy generators.

    Exposure to red light can also activate the cells to speed up the production of antioxidants. This results in lower levels of inflammation.

    Red light therapy utilizes red light specifically because of its ability to penetrate body tissues. This type of wavelength is more easily absdorbed by the parts of the cells that capture light energy. This allows the cells to better utilize red light as opposed to other types of wavelengths.

    Red light therapy might also be referred to as low-level laser light therapy or low-power laser therapy since the energy being emitted is lower compared to other laser therapies.


    Skin conditions that may benefit from red light therapy include:


    Infammatory acne: Inflammatory acne like pimples respond well due since it lowers the amount of inflammation and oil in the skin.

    Signs of aging: Red light therapy may improve the appearance of the skin that has been damaged by ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. The therapy works by stimulating collagen production to minimize wrinkles and tighten the skin.


    LED red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of red light to penetrate the skin, stimulating energy production, accelerating healing, and promoting collagen production. It's non-invasive, safe, and used for skin health, pain relief, and other therapeutic benefits without UV rays.
