Red light therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level wavelengths of red light to stimulate healing, regeneration, and other beneficial biological processes in the body. The therapy is also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation (PBM). Here’s how it works:
How Red Light Therapy Works:
Red light penetrates the skin and reaches cells where it is absorbed by mitochondria, the energy-producing structures within cells. This boosts the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the energy source for cellular functions. As a result, cells become more efficient at repairing damage, reducing inflammation, and regenerating tissues.
Benefits of Red Light Therapy:
The benefits of red light therapy to the face and neck primarily revolve around improving skin health and appearance:
1. Anti-Aging Effects:
Red light therapy stimulates collagen production in the skin, helping to reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging, particularly around sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth, and neck. This leads to firmer, smoother skin and a more youthful appearance.2. Improved Skin Texture and Tone:
Regular use of RLT can enhance overall skin texture by promoting cell regeneration and repair. This helps to even out skin tone and reduce pigmentation issues like age spots or
discoloration.3. Reduction of Acne and Inflammation: Red light therapy has anti-inflammatory properties, which can calm redness and irritation. It also helps control acne by reducing inflammation in the skin and supporting faster healing of blemishes.
4. Enhanced Elasticity:
By boosting collagen and elastin production, red light therapy improves skin elasticity, helping to tighten sagging skin on the face and neck.5. Scar and Wound Healing:
Red light therapy accelerates the healing process for scars, acne marks, and minor skin wounds, making it beneficial for those looking to improve the appearance of these issues
on the face and neck.6. Skin Health and Rejuvenation: Increases collagen production, improving skin tone, texture, and reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
7. Boosts Circulation: Improves blood flow to the skin, giving it a healthy glow.
At Advanced Dermal Health & Aesthetics, the red light panel treatment uses Stimlight
Technology, designed to deliver therapeutic wavelengths of red light to the skin.
