What is Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low wavelength red light to improve skin appearance, help muscle tissues, and heal other parts of the body. The treatment works by exposing the body to low wavelength red light that penetrates deep into the skin where cells absorb and use it.
Is Red Light Therapy suitable for Skin?
Red Light Therapy is generally safe for all skin types, non-invasive, and non-toxic. It can be beneficial for hair loss, acne, wound healing, and anti-aging. It is often used by chiropractic offices, physical therapy offices, spas, and dermatology offices. Red Light Therapy helps with acne and scarring, anti-aging, and wound healing. It can be used to treat inflammatory skin conditions such as psoriasis. Red Light Therapy is safe for cancer patients, as it has been used in photodynamic therapy to treat certain skin cancers. It does not contain ultraviolet light, which has been proven to cause skin cancers. The quality of at-home devices may differ from those at professional offices, so seeking a provider's advice is recommended.
