Get Healthier Skin With Healing Red Light Therapy

People all over the world are harnessing the healing and reparative powers of light to improve the health and appearance of the skin. Something as seemingly simple as light, offers tremendous skin rejuvenation and regenerative properties that astound even the most critical of skeptics including dermatologists, hospitals, and universities.

Specific wavelengths have the unique ability to penetrate deep into skin and tissue where the body readily accepts them utilizing their powers to heal. These precise LED (light emitting diode) wavelengths ignite over 24 positive responses at a cellular level. They stimulate the mitochondria, cellular energy, and cellular metabolism producing new healthy collagen. As the energy within the cell increases it is then able to function optimally resulting in a more beautiful complexion.

Wavelengths are measured in nanometers (nm) resulting in a bounty of beautiful colors. Each of these colors has significance when it comes to healing the skin. Yellow LEDs at 590 nm, Red LEDs from 610-660 nm all the way up to -infrared LEDs at 880 nm (naked to the human eye) are extremely beneficial to skin cells prompting healing, repair, regeneration, rejuvenation, and stimulation.

Collagen is the most common protein found in the body and is a vital building block within the skin. Collagen holds the cells together forming an intricate system of fibers that give the skin bounce and elasticity. LED light therapy has the unique ability to increase the formation of collagen.

Skin with unhealthy or brittle collagen fibers looks more aged revealing lines, wrinkles, a rough texture, and lacks firmness. As people age, the body produces less collagen and has a more difficult time maintaining healthy collagen fibers. By increasing collagen synthesis and repairing damaged fibers, LED light therapy improves skin health making it look smoother, more firm, and healthier. It’s as simple as exposing the skin in close proximity to red light therapy and relaxing while the reparative wavelengths penetrate into the skin, permeate cells, and spark a plethora of positive reactions.

Red light therapy is a non-invasive, safe, and natural option for drastically improving the appearance and behavior of the skin. Albeit an effective anti-aging tool, it does take time to see dramatic results with this therapy. Many individuals report seeing an improvement in the tone and texture of the skin after just a few treatments, but older scars and deeper wrinkles can take longer fade. Therefore, consistency and patience are vital to the success of LED treatments.
