WHAT IS Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light, typically between 600 and 900 nanometers, to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular activity. This light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria—the energy-producing components of cells—enhancing their ability to generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule responsible for cellular energy. The increased ATP production boosts cellular function and repair, leading to various physiological benefits. These include stimulating collagen production, which is essential for maintaining skin elasticity and structure, improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and accelerating tissue repair. As a result, RLT is commonly used to address signs of aging, such as wrinkles and sagging skin, and to promote overall skin health and healing.
