Red has been used in light therapy for hundreds of years shining sunlight on the bare skin throught stained glass.Probably more is known about treatmentwith red wavelengths than other colors.Laboratory studies have shown that cells grow 150-200 percent faster when exposed to certain LED light wavelengths.Independent research for over 40 years has shown LED red and infrared light delivers powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue.Both visible red and infrared light has been shown to affect at least24 different positive changes at a deep level.Visible red light at wavelengths from 630-660 nanometers penetrates tissue to a depth of 8-10 mm.LED light is very beneficial in treating problems close to the skin surface such as wounds ,cuts and scars.Skin layers because of their high blood and water content ,absorb red light very readily and deliver enough energy to stimulates a response from the body to heal iteslf.
This technology was originally developed by NASA to improve wound healing and tissue growth in space.It assisted with tired and fatigued astronauts upon their return .The potential of that technology was incovered and introduced into the medicale markets.
There are no reported side effects to the treatments ,which are painless ,non -toxic and compliments many othertreatements.
Light energy is measured in joules,the energy that is generated when 1 watt of power flows for 1 second .It takes only 1 joule of energy to activate an acupuncture point.
As we age genetics,(intrinsic-internal aging )and Environmental(Extrinsic-external aging) slows the skin's ability to repair itself from free -radical damage.Lasers work on reducing wrinkles by actually damaging the tissue causing Type 1 collagen to be produced in the healing process.Our LED lights are non-invasive and du not harm the skin ,but rather stimulate fibroblasts which produce collagen wich repairs our skin damage.
Red wavelengths and certain infrared (not visible)wavelengths will increase cellular activity at the dermallevel..As we age ,there is a drop in cellular activity and energy levels.With the delivery of the correct wavelengths of LED light ,these dermal cells receive a rejuvenating ,anti -aging boost from the light energy..Light stimulation also increases blood flow ,helping bring nutrients and cellular growth factors to the treated areas.Red and infrared light stimulate fibroblast and collagen production to strengthen sagging wrinkled skin.The lymph vessels open and drain more efficisntly to remove toxic waste and promote a healtier looking skin .The skin heals quicker and with less post surgical or post trauma scarring.LED therapy is safe for all skin types and ages.there is no down time or recovery time.And it is quickly becoming known as one of the most effective and non-invasive ways to help rejuvenate and repair the skin.
