WHAT IS
RED LIGHT THERAPY
Red light therapy, which is also referred to as low-level light therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation therapy, is a non-invasive approach used in both medical and cosmetic fields. It harnesses the power of low-level red or near-infrared light to trigger a range of biological responses within the body. This treatment method entails directing carefully chosen wavelengths of light, falling within the red or near-infrared part of the spectrum (usually in the 630 to 880 nanometer range), onto the skin and body.
What Are The Benefits?
Red light therapy has been studied for various potential benefits, although the effectiveness can vary depending on the specific application and individual factors. Some of the commonly reported and researched benefits of red light therapy include:
​
Improved Skin Health:
Reduction of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Red light therapy may stimulate collagen production and improve skin elasticity, potentially reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Acne Treatment: It has shown promise in reducing acne lesions and inflammation, possibly by killing bacteria and reducing sebum production.
Scar Reduction: Red light therapy can help with scar healing and the reduction of scar tissue.
​
Pain Management and Inflammation Reduction:
Relief from Muscular and Joint Pain: Some individuals use red light therapy to alleviate pain associated with conditions like arthritis, muscle strains, and joint injuries.
Reduced Inflammation: It may help decrease inflammation, which can be beneficial for conditions involving chronic inflammation
​
Wound Healing:
Accelerated Healing: Red light therapy may promote faster wound healing by stimulating tissue repair and reducing inflammation.
Burns and Ulcers: It has been studied for its potential to aid in healing burns and chronic ulcers.
Hair Growth:
Hair Restoration: Red light therapy may stimulate hair follicles and promote hair growth, making it a treatment option for individuals with conditions like alopecia.
Mood and Sleep:
Mood Enhancement: Some research suggests that red light therapy may have a positive impact on mood and may help alleviate symptoms of depression.
Improved Sleep: It has been investigated for its potential to regulate circadian rhythms and improve sleep patterns.
Cognitive Function:
Brain Health: There is ongoing research into the use of red light therapy to potentially enhance cognitive function and treat conditions like traumatic brain injury and neurodegenerative diseases.
Sports Recovery:
Athletes often use red light therapy to help with muscle recovery and reduce exercise-induced inflammation and soreness.
Dermatological Conditions:
Some skin conditions, such as psoriasis and eczema, may benefit from red light therapy due to its anti-inflammatory effects.
Metabolic Benefits:
Red light therapy has been studied for its potential to improve metabolic function and aid in weight management.
How Often Should You Use it?
The frequency of red light therapy sessions can vary depending on the specific condition you are treating and the type of equipment you are using. Generally, the recommended frequency for red light therapy sessions can range from several times a week to a few times a month. Here are some guidelines for different applications:.
​
Skin Rejuvenation and Cosmetic Use:
For improving skin texture, reducing wrinkles, and addressing acne, you may start with 2-3 sessions per week.
Maintenance sessions can be reduced to 1-2 times per week or a few times per month after initial improvements.
Pain Management and Inflammation Reduction:
Treating acute pain or inflammation might require more frequent sessions initially, such as daily or every other day.
Chronic pain conditions may benefit from 2-3 sessions per week for an extended period.
Wound Healing and Injury Recovery:
For wound healing and tissue repair, daily sessions or several times a week may be recommended initially.
As healing progresses, sessions can be reduced to a maintenance schedule.
Hair Growth:
Hair restoration typically requires consistent sessions, such as 3-5 times per week, for several months.
Maintenance sessions can be 1-2 times per week.
Mood and Sleep Improvement:
If using red light therapy for mood enhancement or sleep improvement, a daily or regular schedule may be beneficial.
Sports Recovery:
Athletes may use red light therapy before or after intense physical activity, depending on their needs.
Metabolic Benefits:
For metabolic benefits and weight management, a consistent schedule of several sessions per week may be recommended.
