Red light therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive, non-chemical skin procedure that addresses the issues of light wrinkles, scarring, and acne without any side effects or downtime. You can return to your everyday activities immediately after the treatment. If you are averse to needles or want a mild, relaxing procedure, consider RLT as an option.
Red light therapy is a skin treatment procedure that utilizes light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to send low-intensity red and near-infrared light deep into the body's cells, which helps promote healing. Red light therapy is a non-invasive and painless procedure that does not involve any heat. These low-frequency wavelengths are not the same as UV (ultraviolet) light, which comes from the sun and is used in tanning beds, so it cannot cause UV damage, and there is no risk for skin cancer.
Red light therapy can rejuvenate damaged or aging skin. RLT enhances the skin's natural ability to generate collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, resulting in a tightening effect that reduces the visibility of wrinkles and fine lines.
Red light therapy helps to reduce redness, minimize oil production, and eliminate bacteria on the skin. People with acne and people who are sensitive to topical chemical treatments can benefit from this non-invasive procedure.
Red light therapy is used to reduce collagen production in scar tissue, improving or preventing the thickening of scars.

As any painter, sculptor, architect, or photographer will tell you a lot of beauty has to do with the play of light. It’s the same for our faces.
