How Does the Red Light Therapy Work?

Red Light Therapy - how does it work?

Red Light therapy is a safe and natural process that requires no needles, surgery or lasers. It has many benefits to the skin by naturally slowing down the aging process and improving skin tone. The light causes soft tissue coagulation which leads to remodeling of the collagen within the dermis. The remodeled collagen fills in wrinkles and sagging, for overall skin tightening.

When talking about collagen lamps being used for anti-aging purposes in a tanning salon, we are referring to visible red light that is UV-free. At a wavelength of 620 to 700nm, the red light of collagen lamps penetrates human tissue to depths of about 8-10 mm.

Skin layers, because of their high blood and water content, easily absorbs red light. It is extremely beneficial in treating problems close to the surface such as wrinkles, age spots, broken capillaries, wounds, cuts, and scars, trigger points, and have shown particular effectiveness in treating infections.
