Red light therapy

Red light therapy (RLT), or photobiomodulation, is a non-invasive cosmetic treatment that utilizes specific low-level red and near-infrared light wavelengths to stimulate cellular regeneration and enhance skin health. Unlike at-home devices, professional RLT uses higher-intensity light to penetrate deeper into the skin and deliver more pronounced, consistent results as part of a tailored skincare plan.

RLT works by targeting the mitochondria within your cells, often called the “powerhouses”. This boosts the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary source of cellular energy, which in turn supercharges the body’s natural repair mechanisms.

Key cellular benefits include:

• Stimulated collagen and elastin production: RLT activates fibroblasts, the cells responsible for these structural proteins, which helps the skin appear firmer, smoother, and more youthful.
• Reduced inflammation and redness: The anti-inflammatory properties of RLT help soothe conditions like acne and rosacea, making it ideal for sensitive or reactive skin.
• Improved blood circulation: Enhanced blood flow delivers more oxygen and essential nutrients to skin tissues, supporting faster healing and a vibrant complexion.
• Accelerated healing: RLT can speed up recovery from other cosmetic procedures like microneedling or chemical peels and helps minimize scarring.
